The Warmest Welcome to Galway

The staff at The Huntsman provided a level of hospitality I haven’t experienced in years. Ian, in particular, was so kind and accommodating. The food at the inn was top notch, and our room was luxuriously spacious. Wish we could have stayed longer.

8/10 Very good

Was a lovely stay! Only a few small things, no USB ports, for charging! Unable to change the temperature in the room, but the bonus was there was a portable fan for use! Room was clean and spacious. We did eat on site and the food was terrific, very busy spot but we luckily got a table.

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!
