What is the difference between a 3-star hotel and a motel in Galway?

A motel is a great option if you're getting ready to road-trip around Galway. These escapes are usually located near major roads and airports, feature on-site parking and come with basic amenities and services. Check in to a 3-star hotel and you'll be more centrally located. With a wider range of rooms and additional amenities like a gym, lobby and free WiFi, you can expect to pay more for hotel accommodation.

Top Galway Hotel Reviews

Eyre Square Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, good breakfast. Easy walking distance to great Pubs."

Flannery's Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed a two night stay. There was a mixup on our second day and our room was not serviced. Staff were quick to bring towels and coffee but it was disappointing to come home to an unmade bed and wet towels that had to lie on the floor for two days as staff did not take them away. Other than that, breakfast was lovely and our evening meal in the dining room our first night was convenient. "

The Snug Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"I loved everything about this hotel. The room was definitely "Snug" but the design layout definitely made the room very functional. The staff was welcoming, with a wonderful sense of humor. The location was absolutely perfect, and allowed us to even enjoy the liveliness of the street below our window. I loved the energy! Note: The hotel has no elevators and is not in a peaceful spot. "
