Great Hotel & Location
Location is ideal - a stone's throw from Eyre's Square. Rooms were perfect, everything in it that was needed. Entrance was warm & inviting.

I have stayed at this hotel numerous times, but very disappointed with this stay. Room very small and noisy. Looking out onto car park with men working…. No curtains on the windows so people could see in… no hot water in the room. I reported this on the first day but nothing was done about it.

Great Hotel Downtown Galway
Great location because it’s slightly off the main road. It’s an easy walk to the downtown centre and they had friendly staff!

The Victoria hotel is a perfect location for exploring Galway. Just a block away from the town square and numerous shops and restuarants. The room was very clean although a bit on the small side with just the basics. - ie no mini fridge, microwave. No parking on site but not too inconvient to park at the nearby lots for 10-15 euro daily. Make sure to get your parking validated
