Top Spanish Arch Hotel Reviews

7 Cross Street

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very small but the location was amazing. The place was clean and the staff was helpful. It is right in the center of everything a tourist may want to see. Close to all pubs and restaurants. Would absolutely stay here again. There are a lot of stairs and no lift. So if you have mobility issues this may cause a problem."

Abbeygate Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Great location convenient to walking the downtown great rooms"

The Residence Hotel

8/10 Good

"The headboard in our room was kind of beat up."

Skeffington ArmsHotel

10/10 Excellent

"A fantastic location in Galway. Rooms were bright in the decor was unique and fun. Please note this can be a very noisy hotel. We were there on a Tuesday night, which is a popular night for college kids to go out and the bar downstairs fills in young college age adults. Other than the loud music, the location was great. Staff was friendly and would consider staying there again. Chocolates on the pillow!"

Leonardo Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"The Leonardo is a definite step up from the Jury Inn that was here before. We chose it due to its location at an end of the pedestrian street. Breakfast buffet was lovely. The shower worked well, and after flying into Dublin, then driving to Galway, we were ready for a bed and a nap. Everything was fine. The price is high compared to the Jury before, but you can’t beat the location. Also, with the parking garage next door, the hotel validated our parking ticket so it was 12 euros instead of 20 euros. Of course my husband wanted to wander around some more, so we had an extra 6 euros to pay when we left."

The G Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was beautiful! We loved the spa, the drinks, the view and especially the location."

Eyre Square Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room"

Queen Street Place

8/10 Good

"Basic but clean and modern accommodation. Perfect for one night business trip where little time in the room. Very compact."
