“This hotel stands out for its refreshingly modern rooms and convivial atmosphere, just a short walk from both the railway station and the vibrant Eyre Square. The on-site restaurant is a highlight, particularly if the popular chicken wings are anything to go by. For first-time visitors to Galway, its central location truly can't be beat.”
