Room small but clean and tasteful, good shower with nice products. Comfortable bed, room nice and warm. Vending machine in the hallway. Very central. Some noise from outside, but not excessive. Was woken by people playing music in the next room in the small hours of the morning (not fault of hotel), called Reception and the matter was dealt with immediately. I would stay there again. Superb location.

The room was snug as the hotel name suggests but very cosy, spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for an overnight business stay. The reception staff were amazing, very friendly and knowledgeable about the local area with what to see and do, the price was also right and we will stay again as we felt it was in the heart of the action in Galway city, excellent!

The location is EXCELLENT, right in Quay center where all the pubs and shops are. Everything in is walking distance. About a 5 min walk to the Spanish Arc. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful with questions. The room was very clean. The only downside was that the bed was quite uncomfortable… but honestly, we only stayed a night and otherwise this spot was perfect.

An ideal location for a social weekend in Galway. Everything is within walking distance & you are amongst the hustle & bustle, looking out over The Quays Bar, yet the room itself was not noisy (very good windows). The room was lovely and clean & the staff were very friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

Found this place on Instagram and it turned out to be the best hotel I could’ve picked. It was in the perfect location, so many things all around it, so close to the Christmas festival in the train station. Really enjoyed staying the night here. 10/10 recommend for solo travelers.

Great location on Quay Street with the Spanish Arch parking garage next door (discounted rate of 12€/day.) No lift so if handicapped be sure to request something on 1st floor. There are oodles of pubs, fish & chip joints, and boutiques right out the front door. Nice showers with plenty of warm water and pressure. Great value.
