The Galmont

The Galmont

10/10 Excellent
"The Hotel Galmont was an excellent choice for our stay in Galway. The staff members were friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and comfortable. The only negative was a lack of drawer space (our friends’ room did have drawers.) There was an in-room safe. We didn’t take advantage of the spa because we were too busy, but it looked very nice. "
