Top Salthill Hotel Reviews

The Nest Boutique Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"Lugar cómodo para un hospedaje rápido"

Flannery's Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"Although we had a car rental, we appreciated being able to use public transportation. There are buses regularly available in front of the hotel for easy access to the center of Galway. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms are well appointed. We appreciated the coffee machine in our room which was replenished daily. Instructions for how to use the coffee machine were provided. Daily room service was provided without having to ask for it. We were unable to figure out how to use the TV. Instructions would have been helpful, but we had so much planned, that we never asked for help with it. Morning news would have been welcomed. Overall, we were very pleased with having chosen the Flannery Hotel and highly recommend it to anyone interested in visiting Galway."

Galway Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"El personal muy amable. La higiene y limpieza estuvo muy bien. Nos gustó mucho la limpieza y las normas que había en la pileta. El hotel cuenta con máquinas para llenar botellitas con agua potable. Hay retaurantes y bar dentro del hotel, pero si preferís ir al centro solo debes tomarte una sola línea de bus desde la parada bien al frente del hotel. Lo súper recomiendo!"
