After traveling through the UK and around Ireland for nearly 3 weeks, I found Menlo Park Hotel to be the finest accommodation of the many hotels I visited in three countries. The other hotels were nice, but the Menlo Park Hotel is really a big cut above the rest. The staff is Excellent, friendly, helpful and extremely professional. The room was just the Very best: large, comfortable, an exquisite bath with both tub and separate shower. There were chocolates on the bed upon arrival. The breakfast is a delicious brunch-like buffet. Dinner at the restaurant was also top notch. I would go back to Galway just to stay at the Menlo Park Hotel.
