  The entire hotel has an odd décor including black walls and dimly lit hallways. Our room however was bright and airy. Bathrooms were clean and on the large side. King bed was comfortable. Breakfast: There were several options for the included made to order breakfast along with the typical buffet type foods (fruit, bread, cereal etc). Pretty good overall. Staff were always very helpful and friendly. Hotel is located about 2 km, or just over a mile, from some of the main shopping, bar, and restaurant areas of Galway. About a 20 minute walk with several routes and plenty of sidewalks. We actually enjoyed the walk. Wouldn't recommend driving due, in part, to limited parking. Taxi's are available, probably over $20 euro each way. There are a couple of fast food type places located to the back of the hotel but wouldn't necessarily recommend. We gave the hotel a credit card to cover incidentals and they placed a temporary $50 euro charge on the card which is fine. We never charged anything to the card but now, a week later, we still have a $50 euro pending charge on the card. No telling how long it will take to remove. Will not do that again!

  Was there for afternoon tea. A Group of 13 of us. Food and tea selection was very good but the service side was slow as only 1 person to bring out all different types of tea that were ordered. Hense why it only gets 4 out of 5. 5 out of 5 definitely as the food were great. The scones were top notch! There were vegetarian & Gluten free options provided to those whom requested it. Good Value for afternoon tea!

  A fabulous Hotel and the staff were exceptional. Service and presentation top notch. Just a very short taxi ride from the city centre or a 10-minute walk. The only negative thing I have to say is that if you are in one of the front rooms facing the bay and the sun is out the room gets very very warm, almost uncomfortably so and even with air conditioning on full power the room was still too hot. However in saying that I would still definitely return to this hotel again.

  Beautiful contemporary hotel located 5 minutes drive from Eyre Square. It is well known as it was designed by Philip Treacy. The staff are amazing and very attentive, what you would expect in a five star hotel. The corridors upstairs are quite dark. Not great for anyone with bad eyesight. The bedrooms are tastefully decorated in neutral colours. A lot of the rooms overlook a shopping centre. I was awoken by noisy delivery trucks early in the morning which was annoying. Maybe ask for a room at the front of the hotel. The breakfast here is one of the best breakfasts you will ever have.

  Schickes Design Hotel nur ein paar Gehminuten vom Zentrum. Die Suite, welche wir hatten, war super schön. Zwei Duschen und eine große freistehende Badewanne. Einziges Manko, bei der Couch im Zimmer war teilweise der Stoff ab und hing unschön ab. Das Personal war rundum sehr freundlich und Essen und Trinken war auch sehr gut.
