You’re in the middle of it all at the Residence. Great dining and shopping are right outside your door, and the attached pub is great too. Bring earplugs on a weekend!

We had a wonderful experience with the bellman at the hotel. He was very personable, and even gave us chocolates for our anniversary celebration. The room was very clean and we loved the decoration. Overall we had a great experience there.

This hotel is excellent. Right in the heart of the busy tourist section of Galway, but it is like a sanctuary. The hotel has a restaurant and bar that is excellent. The rooms are stylish and comfortable. If you are looking for an experience , then I really recommend this place.

It’s loud at night just like stated in previous reviews, even on the fourth floor the bar played live music until 1:30 am. Everything else about the hotel is great, if you’re not planning to be up at 1:30 in the am with the music, I consider somewhere else

Right in the heart of Galway bars, restaurants, and shops just out the door. EU style no doubt. Parking not bad. Spanish arch garage right by. Parking just tight but everything is there. Wonderful if you want to be midst all the hustle and bustle

Not only did the room feel neglected, it smelled like fish fry when the window was opened as it was right onto the vents from the restaurant below. No air conditioning and felt very dirty. Noisy

Great location if you love to be in the middle of things. However, it’s above a very fun bar so if you sleep with the window open it’s very loud and if you close it the room can get a bit stuffy (no ac).
