This was an exceptional hotel with great staff. We enjoyed our stay there while exploring Galway and the west of Ireland. It is not downtown Galway, but it not far and the property provides a very nice and quiet alternative to the downtown hotels.

The twelve was an excellent stay, so nice to have a suite style hotel with an extra wet bar and couch room. The record players in the room were a lot of fun. Because of this place, I’ll always remember Meatloaf’s “Bat out of hell”. Staff was great and the restaurant for breakfast and dinner room serve was excellent.

A little expensive for the accommodation.
The hotel was clean and large and had convenient amenities like a good coffee and tea selection. While I appreciated the unique decor, we did not find the beds very comfortable and the room was not cozy. We also left clothes in our room and when we inquired about them we were told that they were not found. 😕 Pluses are that there is a great restaurant onsite and we really enjoyed our meals there. The included breakfast was fantastic.

The Twelve was perfect for a weekend stay in Galway. It was a great sized room with a king sized bed. Lovely little touches... a welcome card with some cake from the bakery on arrival. Even though there is a busy bar/restaurant on ground floor and another restaurant on the first floor it was really quiet. I would stay again!

Our stay at the twelve hotel was wonderful from the hospitality of the staff, great service, and wonderful breakfast every morning that was included within our package. The property itself is tucked away outside of downtown Galway but close enough to drive in or take a taxi to the city center. It is very quiet and perfect for families as they have suites with an adjoining room for kids. We had a party of 10 ppl and each family thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay at the twelve hotel. We look forward to visiting again!

The Twelve was very comfortable and had a lot of character which is something we appreciate when traveling abroad! The room was large and well appointed and had a separate loving room area which was nice to have as an option for relaxing. The pizza restaurant attached was a nice addition as there wasn’t much nearby that was open (to be fair, it was the night before Easter Sunday in the off season, but it’s also about 10 minutes outside of Galway, so keep that in mind). The neighborhood was quiet and safe and we would definitely stay again.

Great location outside the city, perfect for my ferry out of Rossaveel the next morning. Knocked it down a star for how horribly disappointed I was by the mattress with springs jutting in to me, noise of the heating unit and mildew in the shower. Dinner in the restaurant was decent, breakfast great as well.
