Avoid room 104 or 102.. it is directly of above bar where music is till 2:00am. When asked what time the music ended on Friday night we were told 11;00pm ish.. and didn’t we read the reviews we did but no one said music would be so loud and annoying.. While website said be for some noise it never said bar was right below us.. Staff very friendly and know they had no control.. they need to say where this hotel sits!! No one would rent here if they knew!!!

If you're a party person this hotel is for you ;)

The size of the rooms was decent, loved the in room coffee pot and you can't be at the location BUT the pub below was BLASTING music well past 2am and even with 2 sound machines and closed windows no sleep was to be had. Staff were polite but not friendly and with no breakfast service available we'll make a different choice on our next visit to Galway.

A great location, right in the thick of it. The only downside to that is that it’s a little noisy at night (something we were aware of before booking anyway).
