Hotels near The Claddagh, Galway

Strategically located in the Galway city, many tour buses stop right in front and Kinlay has their own Galway Tour too. Clean private room and bathroom, thankfully there was a standing fan in the room to beat the sunny summer heat (unusual for Galway). Complimentary breakfast was awesome, delicious homemade Irish Soda bread, yummy scones that I missed on our last day there. Free flow of water, apples, tea, coffee and hot chocolate making that you could make yourself anytime. Would come back again, highly recommended.

We were given a beautiful room  over looking the Circle of Life garden and the sea further on. See photo. Noise from jacuzzi below was bothersome in the morning and I had requested a quiet room, which it was apart from the engines bubbling below. Service in restaurant was incredibly slow for breakfast. Breakfast offering was good; not much pastry wise, but lots of fruits, gorgeous cheese, avocados even, good quality Oj. But the Coffee was sludge and undrinkable. Though the View over Galway bay is beyond compare. Room was comfortable though dated but very clean except at one point in the shower I looked down to see a chunk of long black hair stuck to my foot… 2000% not mine. That was pretty gross. It must have been sitting in the drain as I’d have noticed before getting in. Cockroaches in the shower are a more welcome site than that.  Bathroom is modern and shower had good power. Bed was soft but comfortable. Staff throughout the hotel were friendly and helpful. Pool is small, sauna is great. Pool not too clean/ Two discarded plasters on the side.  Location is unbeatable.

I recently stayed at the G Hotel. While there were some wonderful aspects, it didn’t quite live up to the glamorous impression it gives online. The location is a bit away from town and not truly on the lake as described. About half the rooms overlook the parking lot, which is disappointing. The foyer feels more like a three-star hotel — not the luxury welcome I expected. The hallways to the rooms were poorly lit, and the carpet made it difficult to roll luggage, even with a great suitcase. On the positive side, the staff was absolutely amazing. Every person we encountered went above and beyond, delivering genuine five-star service. The hotel rooms themselves were spacious, stylish, and very comfortable — really lovely once you got past the initial impression. What stood out to me is that just down the road, the Galmont Hotel lobby was exquisite — exactly the kind of first impression I would have expected from the G Hotel. If the G could match its service and rooms with a lobby and setting to match its image, it would truly be a standout

The hotel is very cozy, with excellent service and good facilities. Breakfast is 15 euros per person, not very extensive, but still acceptable. There is a bar in the lobby. The hotel has its own parking lot, which is very convenient. I would definitely stay here again when I visit Galway next time.

Great location for travellers! This 3-star hotel is conveniently situated near the bus station, making it easy to get around the city. The rooms were comfortable and clean, offering the essentials needed for a short stay. Staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with directions and recommendations. While amenities are basic, it’s a solid option if you’re looking for convenience and value in a central location. Perfect for budget-conscious travellers or those just passing through!

Location was great - you can get the bus outside into town takes 5 minutes to get to the square and walk into where the bars restaurants and shops are. The brasserie on the corner is fantastic food and service and a general spot if you’re a foodie! Quays bar is a must! Live music and atmosphere it brilliant there :) Hotel is great, clean, efficient and nice views they also have lots of leaflets and a pool table in reception along side a coffee machine and vending machine. There is a petrol station next door for any other amenities needed. All rooms were clean and had their own bathroom and kitchenette. Recommended if you come Galway to hire a car you want to drive out alongside the coast and country side - ferry tour of the Aran islands is beautiful and the drive there was out of this world! Everyone is so helpful and friendly to approach and talk too. Loved it 🇮🇪❤️

I recently stayed at The Galmont Hotel & Spa in Galway and had a pleasant experience overall. The hotel's location is ideal—just a short walk from Eyre Square and the city centre, making it convenient for exploring local attractions and dining options. The room was spacious and well-maintained, providing a comfortable environment for relaxation. The bed was particularly comfortable, contributing to a restful night's sleep. One of the highlights of my stay was the hotel's spa and leisure facilities. The indoor pool and thermal suite offered a great way to unwind after a day of sightseeing. The staff were friendly and accommodating, enhancing the overall experience. Breakfast was satisfactory, with a decent selection of hot and cold items. However, I felt that the variety could be improved to cater to different dietary preferences. Overall, The Galmont Hotel & Spa offers a comfortable stay with excellent amenities. I would recommend it to travellers seeking a convenient and relaxing hotel experience in Galway.

This is my terrible experience during my Ireland trip. No aircondition, double lock out of order, iron doesnt work When we reported those issues to reception, no fixing, no room change arranged. 10mins later, they sent me an iron 😔 As viewed, the hotel lobby is nice & good beakfast. Hope they have improvement in future. 🙏

Very convenient location - just a minute or two walk from the train station. Room was clean, facilities were reasonable for the price. The issue we did have though was not receiving any check-in details prior to arriving in the evening. While trying to check in, a few groups managed to check in - having received earlier that day an email from the accommodation. For whatever reason, we didn't get ours. After a number of messages/calls and seeking assistance from the hotel across the road, we managed to finally receive comms from the accommodation in order to gain entry. While the individual from Madison House was adamant they sent the email, they weren't able to provide proof of this upon request...

We booked a whole sconto, everything worked without problems. Super nice service, free towels, as well as free tea/cafe and fruit. Room was clean, good size and everything was very uncomplicated. Super were the sticks on each bed with additional USB and USB connection, so you don't need a adapter. We also had breakfast incl. , rather smaller buffet, but perfectly enough and delicious for the price. The mattresses are our only defects, which were very hard.
