Loved our stay! Staff, room and entire town exceeded expectations. Pubs were great, town folk so very friendly, and our room was perfect with a charming little balcony overlooking the river. We will be back!

Modern, clean hotel

Modern, clean hotel in good location within quick walking distance of Galway city center. Car lot is extremely small, requiring us to park offsite. We were there on a warm day and being Ireland, there is no AC, but the room had a fan, which worked well.

The shower set up is strange as the water spills out everywhere. You can tell this is an ongoing issue from the deterioration of the wall and trim outside the bathroom. For one night, it’s fine and luckily we had a fan so we were able to drown out some of the noise since it was warm and we had to have the window open.

I like the view in the hotel. I felt very safe there and the food was delicious there. However, I didn’t like how there was no air conditioning or a fridge in your room to keep your food in it.

Perfect choice in Sligo

I don’t think I could have found a better hotel for one night in Sligo. Riverside is outstanding — great location close to town, comfortable room/bed (mine had a great view overlooking the river/bridge), nice restaurant/pub on site, free parking, and very friendly staff.
