The staff was super nice and accommodating and conveniently located. However, the rooms are outdated, no AC, small tv that can only be seen from one of the tiny uncomfortable beds, there is no fridge. They threw our food out when we were out on a tour that we were going to eat when we returned. if the price was lower, I would expect this, but it was $475 CAD a night. This is the price of a luxury hotel in any other place. I’ve stayed in nicer hostels than this location. I would not recommend this hotel unless you get it for $100 CAD a night, I wouldn’t pay any more than that.

It’s a clean and quiet place that’s walking distance to anywhere you would want to go in Galway City Center. I loved that it’s close to places but tucked away just enough from the businesses of the city. The Victoria would be my only choice for future visits.

Nice hotel - the room that we received was probably the worse one on our trip. Very small, looking at the floor map, the smallest available. If you are claustrophobic, this is not for you. For two nights, it was ok. Staff was very friendly and check-in was smooth. If you drive, there is no on site parking and you have to park in one of the parking garages about 2-3 blocks away. Don’t forget to get your rebate parking slip when you leave which you can apply to your parking cost. Location is great and you can walk to everything, including the ferry if you are going over to the Aran Islands.
