Red Carnation hotels in Oughterard, County Galway

"I absolutely LOVED this property! We stayed in the duplex and it was incredible. The location is perfect as there are pubs all around and there is a parking garage about a 5 minute walk away which was very convenient since we had a rental car! Staff were friendly and welcoming. Would absolutely stay here again!"

"This location was brand new and felt like it! The room lighting options are very nice, and we were happy to have air conditioning. The upstairs lounge is beautiful, with great views."

"Nice hotel. Good staff. Breakfast was OK but not great. Parking was highly stressful"

"Lovely atmosphere in the lobby area, but would suggest a play area for children and also re-configure the changing room for women/children as flight of stairs is difficult to manage to/from the swimming pool and same also need to get through the gym area before/after swim which brings up a safety and privacy issue!"

"We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. We had a 5th floor executive room with a balcony which wasn’t cheap but was very spacious with a sitting area and balcony with a view. The bed was large and comfortable. We had breakfast in the room twice which arrived on time and as ordered for a delivery charge of €12.50. The third day we went down for the breakfast buffet which provided a good choice and although ending at 10.30 am people were still arriving about that time and getting seated. The hotel is fairly modern and was in good condition. There is a nice bar area and all the staff were very pleasant and helpful. We didn’t use the Spa facilities and so can’t comment on that. The hotel is an ideal location for walking into town Eyre Square and Qyay Street are only about 10-15 minutes walk where there are numerous pubs and restaurants to choose from. It was also only about 10-15 minutes subject to traffic to get to the races in a taxi. We hired a car and were charged €40 for 3 nights parking which sadly seems to be the norm these days! The only issue we had was our toilet getting running on the second day and then wouldn’t flush but maintenance sorted it out after a couple of requests. Overall though a very pleasant stay and if returning to Galway and the Races which we would as the place is buzzing I would definitely stay at the Galmont again."

"From the outside we were concerned because outside looked a little run down. The inside was lovely. Our room was spacious and clean. The staff was wonderful and very accommodating. It was an easy walk about 10-15 mins to downtown Galway. "

"Very friendly staff. Hotel is very clean & was much better than what the photos showed. We were very pleasantly surprised. Breakfast was very well done "

"Perfect experience, wish we could stay another night here. "

"The menu was varied, the food was delicious and reasonably priced. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, however the wifi service was very poor."
