The Dean Galway
Very nice place to stay. Coffee shop downstairs is good but they seemed understaffed for how busy the morning rush was. Walls were a bit thin.

Great location!

Nox Hotel
This is a 3 star hotel working towards a 2 star rating. The staff and restaurant are outstanding. The WiFi is beyond bad. The staff even provided admin access which also was miserable. Water service was on and off for 2 days. This level of service would appear to be on ownership.
