11. 1997 Stays Galway

Newcastle, 1.1 km from Shop Street

"Very cute little spot to stay. Unfortunately the check in details were a bit off and there's no staff on site. We were given a front door code and a room code. The front door code did not work but eventually we figured out the room code works on both doors. The wifi information we were given was also incorrect. Not the best water for showering and the beds were very creamy and noisy. All things considered we still loved the property. Great value and a very cool spot."

Top Shop Street Hotel Reviews

Eyre Square Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Just what we needed: near enough to the train station and action but away enough from the noise when we wanted to sleep. For the morning, there are 3 cafes you can almost roll out of bed into. Our room had a second twin bed, but there are a few rooms for two people as well. It even had a small fridge to keep our samples from the cheese monger and some fruit from Dunnes. Staff helped with dinner ideas (cost and quality) and making sure we were prepared for outings. Do keep in mind if you get in late that there may be people sleeping below you (helps to take off your shoes when walking on wood floors)."

Eyre Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"All was fine."

The Western Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was extremely kind and accommodating. Was in a great location to walk to everything, they also include parking which is great if you are driving. The rooms were very well maintained, I would stay here agin."

Abbeygate Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"It was vey beautiful"

The Galmont

8/10 Good

"Clean room and convenient to town."

Leonardo Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"They were great trying to help make us comfortable. The air conditioning unit was broken and it was extremely warm the week we were on site."

The Snug Townhouse

8/10 Good

"Room was clean. Fresh towels every day. Great location. Met all of our needs. Not a great choice if you need a lot of space. We were able to slide our luggage under the bed, which made it very workable. All in all we had a great stay."

7 Cross Street

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely old building with Latin Quarter literally on the doorstep. We had some reservations about noise and room size, having checked the usual review sites. But our room (overlooking Cross Street) had secondary glazing so the complimentary earplugs were not needed. The room was compact, but absolutely fine (my husband is 6'3" and he had no complaints), and was equipped with everything needed. It was thoughtfully laid out, spotlessly clean, comfortable, and attractively decorated. The hosts were friendly and helpful and the continental breakfast buffet was varied and more than sufficient to fuel us up for the day. There was a dear little book on each breakfast table, with a history of the building, which was a lovely touch. A few more plug sockets would be useful, but I guess our medieval ancestors didn't have so many devices to charge :) Would not hesitate to stay again."

The Residence Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great hotel. Just be prepared for a little street noise."
