So grateful for the instructions to find parking beforehand! Nice location. A little noisy from nearby bars but nothing too crazy. If you travel with a-lot of luggage look elsewhere as there’s no elevator and plenty of stairs. Highly recommend!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Excellent location! Several pubs, restaurants, and shops literally outside the door. I read lots of previous reviews from others complaining about the noise at night, but it did not bother us and wasn’t extreme. If you want a quiet place with no noise, you shouldn’t be staying in the heart of this entertainment district/neighborhood in the first place. Rooms and hotel were very clean, and nice free breakfast. Rooms were a little small, but to be expected in a historic 600 year old hotel in a historic fun vibrant area. Highly recommend this hotel if you are looking for a place to stay in the heart of Galway.

Fabulous stay in Latin Quarter, Galway.

You are staying in a cozy, 700 year old building in the center of the Latin Quarter in Galway, with air conditioning! If you don’t understand the connection between Galway and Spain, look it up on Wikipedia. Fabulous location, fabulous staff, fabulous cozy room with en suite bathroom. Laundromat around the corner. The only downside is all the stairs but, 700 years old.

This is a very small property in a 700 year old building. That being said, my wife and I had a nice stay. It is located conveniently in the Latin Quarter—right in the middle of shops, bars, restaurants, etc. It is easily walkable. There is no elevator and the stairs are steep. My wife and I are in our 60s so this presented a bit of a challenge, but the young lady who was present offered to help. We declined, but appreciated her willingness. The room we had (Shakespeare) was small but comfortable. The bed is comfortable. The air conditioning worked but could not be adjusted. The bathroom is tiny, but workable. We had breakfast included which was continental style. It met our needs each day just fine. While not a five star mega hotel chain, the experience was fun and the location couldn’t be beat.

Hotel is right in the heart of the action in Galway. Excellent music in the bar next door although the music was quite loud in the room also. The hotel provided ear plugs so it didn't really bother us. Hotel is a very old 600 year old building with no lift, steep/narrow stairs so carrying luggage was challenging. The room was very small. The car park at the Spanish Arch has extremely small parking spaces and was daunting to navigate, for a westerner. Unfortunstely missed our first night at the hotel due to a plane delay and couldn't get a refund.

The location is ideal - just walk out the front door and you’re in the heart of the Latin quarter with quick access to restaurants and bars. Great vibe around that area. . The rooms are very small (as noted). Ok if you’re traveling with a small carry-on case or small backpack. Little or no space in the room to store your luggage. Nice continental breakfast. Bed was not that comfortable. A little pricey for what you get.

WONDERFUL

This location in Galway is perfect!! There is AC in the rooms and this was more than appreciated as there was a heat wave happening during our stay. Be prepared, as there is not an elevator, which is to be expected in a building of this age. The staff was exceptional and were more than accommodating. Christina is amazing. The breakfast was very nice. The rooms are tiny, but the beds were so comfortable. I loved staying here and would recommend to anyone who enjoys spending the majority of their time seeing the sights. The hotel has quite the history and I enjoyed learning about the establishment. Thank you for a great stay!
