We stayed here for a night and it was super cute! The hotel has an old world charm on the outside but modern twist on the inside. On the bottom floor they have a restaurant/bar. We went for dinner and breakfast and the food was excellent both times! Check in was a breeze, parking was plenty. Area was walkable.

Had a lively restaurant on the first floor that smelled delicious. Did not eat there, so cannot comment on the food. A little confusing on how to actually enter the hotel part of the building. Room was clean and comfortable.

I loved my time at the Huntsman. It was just what I needed after walking around Galway all day. The day I arrived they were able to get me a reservation at the restaurant and I had THE BEST experience there. Great food, great drinks and great service. Very safe and very comfortable.

We had a great stay. Our only complaint, at no fault of the staff or property, was that due to the location, it was a bit noisy as traffic passed by during the night. Otherwise it was great!
