Top Galway Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very hospitable and made my stay enjoyable. They gave me a map and recommended me a list of the different places to visit depending on what i’d be interested in such as pubs with traditional Irish music and place open late night. My room was surprisingly on the ground floor which actually provided a nice view of the bridge and the river flowing by the Spanish arch. The room also had high ceilings, a security safe and was clean with all the toiletries needed. I recommend this hotel as it’s location is within walking distance to the train and bus depot, and you can literally step outside and be a 5 second walk from the popular Quay street with lovely buskers, great food and vibrant pubs. Thank you again to the staff at the Leonardo, you were all great and I had a wonderful time in your city."
