The Western Hotel, hotel in Galway

The family-run Western Hotel is located in the heart of Galway, just off Eyre Square.

This is a gorgeous hotel with an attached restaurant and bar. (We had a drink in the bar, but did not eat there, so I can't comment on that...) Our room was spacious and generally comfortable There is a convenient car park beneath the hotel. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful (and there the entire time of our stay!) Conveniently located to the Latin Quarter, shopping and dining but far enough that it's quiet. Very nice bathroom with an excellent shower!

FAQs about hotels in Galway








Cracking City of Craic

Welcoming Galway is a small city with fantastic nightlife and an infectious atmosphere. Outside of the Galway Arts Festival, there’s still plenty of live music in the Irish pubs to get the party started.

The Galway Races at Ballybrit Race Course west of Galway Airport attract a good crowd, as does Eyre Square, a green space with flags of previous ruling families who gave it its nickname - City of Tribes. To the south are cobbled streets housing brightly colored shops and restaurants.

Sights in Galway include its cathedral and city museum which has an interesting insight into the history of the city and Ireland. Lynch’s Castle is the last remaining 17th-century merchant house, and the Spanish Arch is a small section of city walls by the Corrib River, linking Galway Bay to huge Loch Corrib. Where river and ocean meet is Claddagh Park, a great spot for a picnic with a view.

Further around the coast is Salthill Promenade, home to Atlantaquaria, Ireland’s national aquarium, focussing on sealife off Irish shores. It’s a Christmas Day tradition to jump from Blackrock Diving Tower nearby into the icy Atlantic Ocean, though you may well spot some wag giving it a go.

Booking.com has an excellent range of Galway hotels, apartments and B&Bs to complete your stay.

    Galway is a beautiful town with many, many things to see and do. There seemed to be a lot more young people (teens, early-twenties) out and about in Galway than we noticed in our other destinations. The streets and pubs of the Latin Quarter were crowded on a Monday, which is great but surprising! The area we visited was very walkable with lots of shopping, dining and entertainment opportunities. It's easy to get lost/turned around here, but everyone is helpful in pointing you in the right direction.

    Heard for many years that Galway is a beautiful romantic place and always wanted to go there. Now I've been, and I won't be going back. Average looking place, nothing to really do, everything is very expensive and overpriced, especially the food. Some of the buildings are kinda cool, but the famous landmark road with the painted houses is literally 3 houses painted a colour and you will need to photoshop a bit of contrast to your photo afterwards!

    Galway, although a city, feels more like a town with its cobblestone streets and square. There was plenty to see and do in Galway but it also allowed for excursions that were shorter in length. Bus, train, and tour companies were all close together which was extremely convenient.

    Galway is perfect for a 1-day-stroll, but what really makes staying in Galway perfect or a must is what’s around Galway: cliffs of Moher, Aaran islands & Connemara. Those attractions/landscapes are what’s making Galway worth it. And for Galway itself it’s the authentic pubs, the compact city where you can reach the „beach“ within 20 mins.

    The hotel was very nice and felt high quality. The interior, decorations, rooms bathroom all were nice and new. The rooms were big and the bed and mattress very comfortable. The breakfast was exceptional - the best 8 had in my 2 weeks of travel in the UK One person in our group was gluten intolerant and in the hotel restaurant and breakfast most of the options were available for him in a gluten free version! Seems this hotel got a distinction from the Ireland Celiacs association on this matter
