All around great stay!

Loved the Huntsmann Inn, lots to do nearby but not in city-center so away from the madness. Great restaurant and bar on the bottom floor as well!

A great stay in Galway

Hotel ist located on a busy Road, but still quiet at night. A local Bus runs directly to the city Center. The food in offer was very good and the service was very friendly. All together a great stay.

Janet, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely little place for our quick stay in Galway. Location is 15 minute walk from main city center and the restaurant downstairs has great food. Everyone was very kind -Louise at the Front Desk was a standout! The restaurant manager was super sweet, running after my husband to ensure he had plates/silverware for food to take back to our room.
Nila, 1-night trip

Friendly staff. Spacious rooms. Great pub/restaurant. Easy/free parking. About 20 mins walk into the town but very straight forward and nice to be slightly outside the hustle and bustle.
Angela, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed here for a night and it was super cute! The hotel has an old world charm on the outside but modern twist on the inside. On the bottom floor they have a restaurant/bar. We went for dinner and breakfast and the food was excellent both times! Check in was a breeze, parking was plenty. Area was walkable.
Alexandria, 1-night trip

Comfortable, clean rooms with a huge bed! Easy to get the bus right outside the hotel direct to Eyre Square. Lots of parking spaces if you are driving.
