The room was clean, however no staff and if you need anything.. well good luck! Also no WiFi and the A/C is a portable unit. Coffee maker didn’t work. Price was very high for one night. Also they only gave us 1 key. Won’t book again.

Had a wonderful time while staying at the Abbeygate Hotel. We almost got stuck in Ireland, and we had planned to return and stay at the Abbeygate, as it was our favorite city, and we were pleased with the accommodations.

Very nice hotel but a little noisy at night

The room was very nice and clean. It was in a great location to many of the tourist sites. Room was noisy at night even with the windows closed. I had to use the ear plugs you supplied on the desk. Elevator was out of service the last 2 days of our stay.

Great location to walk around Galway

This was perfect for our 2-night stay in Galway! Instructions were clear and we had no problems with the self-check-in kiosk; room was clean and well prepared for our visit. We chose a double bed plus twin bed room to have extra space (and in case one of us had a hard time sleeping after our long travels). We appreciated being within walking distance of the Latin Quarter, Spanish Arch, and Galway Cathedral. We always found parking in the city lot across the street. Would definitely stay here again!

Great location, nice decor

Nice, basic hotel that is close to everything. For my taste, the bed and pillow were too hard and sleep was not uncomfortable. The room is nicely decorated, but there is very limited space for anything. The bathroom has no shelf and just a small sink- so nowhere to put basic toiletries.The room had a strong sewer odor upon check-in. I called their emergency line and they were very responsive. My bigger concern is that they charge hotel rates, but offer no service. The facility is completely unstaffed. When there is a concern, there is no one to call, except their emergency line. We stayed three nights, and the ceramic coffee cups and drinking glasses were never changed. There is no mechanism to clean them, so they were most unpleasant by the third day. I didn’t feel it was worthy of a phone call to the “emergency“ line. Next time, for the same cost, I will stay at a hotel with service or a less expensive AirBnB.
