The room was comically tiny. We couldn’t even open our luggage. For the price, I’m amazed at how small the room was. The double bed barely fit 2 people

new hotel in Galway next to Erye Square

Brand new Hotel. I’m used to staying in older modified hotels all across Ireland . This place is fun and modern. Meant for the business travel of girls trip . Rooftop bar is beautiful. If you are looking for old quaint Ireland go somewhere else. This is a beautiful hotel with bars / pool/gym and wonderful hotel staff

10/10 Exceptional

lively decor, good location and great staff. wish we had a chance to use the pool but the bar and coffee shop were lovely. rooms are a little snug if you’ve got a lot of luggage and some towels were a bit beaten/threadbare, those were the only small drawbacks. would stay again!

Amazing

I loved the hotel, exactly as described . It was spotless, clever signage . All the staff were outstanding. Pool an gym set up were great. The rooftop restaurant was top notch. I slept so well there. Great mirror shower. Ask for extra coathanger s, as lack of storage was a thing. Treat yourself an stay there.
Terrific signage.

Clean and unique. Well decorated. Staff is very helpful. Seems to be issues with staffing restaurants but they all worked hard to cover it up and were gracious.
