Connemara Coast Hotel
5/5 Excellent
Over night stay
"over night stay after a wedding at Spanish Point. Lovely room on the ground floor looking out over the gardens. Room was spacious and modern with all you would need except air con, however there was a fan. We used the pool and steam rooms which were relaxing. We ate in the hotel and the food was very good. "

The Snug Townhouse
5/5 Excellent
"The Snug house is right in the middle of the Latin quarter with immediate access to pubs, restaurants & shops. We loved the area! Having said this, it is very loud at night with a bar across the street that’s open until 2am. Earplugs are a necessity! The staff helped us organize activities and were super friendly! "

5/5 Excellent
Lovely place for a family holiday.
"Lovely, clean, tidy cottage. Owners were very friendly and helpful. Lovely quiet location but still close to local amenities and short drive to Galway city. We had a lovely week here, the cottage was kitted out with everything we needed and the children especially enjoyed the garden with its sports games."
