Lovely stay, we got a free upgrade to a suite which was a lovely surprise, gorgeous room
4.3
Very noisy
4.3
We booked a deluxe seaview room and found it was quite tired and in need of a facelift. The toiletries were basic and our first night and morning the water was cold in the taps and shower. Once we mentioned this at the desk it was resolved.
We had also booked breakfast for the 3 mornings we were there but after the first morning we cancelled the rest
because the breakfast was not good. Very few options and what we did have was cold.
All in all we enjoyed our stay in Galway but were disappointed with the overall look and comfort of a 4 star hotel like the Galmont and expected a higher level of luxury for what we paid
4.3
Great hotel except lukewarm water in bathroom
4.3
Very very disappointing trip for my birthday.
Our room was filthy. Very dated and in dire need of refurbishment. Our room was removed from central hotel. It was not to the standard expected. Vastly different from the photos on hotels.com
4.3
Wonderful but a bit away from the action. Quite expensive as well, but that was my choice.
4.3
Mold. Everywhere. Unacceptable. Paying nearly €400/night and having BLACK MOLD lining the air conditioning vent is absolutely abhorrent. Front desk staff was very kind and that’s all I can say in terms of “pros”.
Minor complaints: restaurant/dining does not open until 1pm. Bar staff took nearly 5-9 minutes each time we were there to acknowledge us.
Fully hope the hotel decides to reach out to discuss some form of a refund due to the conditions in our room.

We arrived late, our type of room was no longer available. Desk staff assumed that balcony was our primary need [it was a bonus with water view, but not the biggest factor.] Offered smaller/ interior rooms first. She ultimately gave us an upgrade to a very nice room. But it took us a while to get there. The property itself is awesome. The water view includes an oil tank farm; but that's what you get (and there's plenty else to see!). The available gym (not owned or operated by Galmont, but offered as a bonus) is first class. The jacuzzi was broken during our stay. Was a surprise to us (Americans) that men also must wear a swim cap in the pool.
4.3
Reception staff were very welcoming, plenty of car prking spaces, good walkable location from the city centre. Breakfast was really good, and we loved the pool which 1 out of the 2 days we used it was really quiet. Nice to have a lane blocked off even though one silly woman decised to ignore it was a lane being. used and just did her own thing along with her older child. Would have been nice if staff could have pointed that out to her as my teenage son didnt feel he could.
Our room was really nice, good size, comfy chair, ice available, and quiet carpets so we didnt hear people wandering back to rooms.
There was some first night music playing late we could hear - not sure if that was from the bar or elsewhere. We didnt hear any the second night.
Really nice stay, we'd go again.
4.3
We were very disappointed in the maintenance of the room. The toilet would not always flush, half way through our 4 night stay we could not get hot water only tepid water, the ac/heat system would turn off in the middle of the night on its own.
We felt the public areas of the hotel were nice, but the rooms need to be updated.
4.3
Due to understaffing the lounge restaurant food was met with slow service and overcooked pasta and croquettes. The Cosmopolitans were terrible.
4.3
Lovely hotel in a great location
4.3
Beautiful, well-appointed. Front desk staff (Mikayla and Irish/American woman whose name is failing me at the moment) were beyond helpful with ideas and recommendations. Wish we could have stayed longer and taken advantage of spa treatments.
4.3
All staff were great. Bar and restaurant lovely furnishing and decoration. A great boutique hotel.
4.3
Great centrally located hotel within easy walk of Shop St, Bars, restaurants and city attractions.
Helpful friendly staff, great selection for breakfast and v nice pool and gym.
Would certainly return
4.3
If you are looking for AC, ours was broken and did not allow us to have an enjoyable stay. Overall the hotel is average. Had a nice view looking at the river. Mini fridge was warm and felt over heated.
4.3
The air conditioning in the room did not work properly. There was no way to take a shower without soaking the floor outside as they only provided a short plexiglass to keep the water in tub area instead of a proper shower curtain or a longer plexiglass cover. Several times at different times of the day, you could not reach anyone on the phone no matter what extension you touched. It isn’t even a matter of higher expectations but just even normal expectations weren’t met.
4.3
Great place
4.3
We were thrilled with the accommodations. In addition to the stellar options for food/drink, spa, gym, pool, and bed, I especially loved the option to pour myself a glassful of icy sparkling water from the water machine. I’ve never seen that in a hotel and thought it was unique, convenient, and delicious. Brilliant!
4.3
Terrible service at the lounge and restaurant.
No AC.
Room cleaner didn't restock
No wash clothes
Shower design was horrible, water everywhere
Over priced
4.3
Nice hotel, good location
4.3
This hotel is very comfortable, as an American traveler it reminds me of a typical chain hotel we have in the states. The only weird thing about this place is that it is actually two buildings connected over a long walkway between the two. Kind of a pain to get your luggage between the lobby and the other side which is a series of elevators and that forementioned long walk. But room was great to problems, clean and comfy!
4.3
Big hotel with plenty of amenities and nice to use hot tub. Comfy huge bed. Good location for walking to the town. Overall lacks charm and would stay somewhere smaller like a b&b if went back .
4.3
Katie, was so kind, thoughtful and attentive. I’d love to make back again and even stay longer.
Thank you Katie and the Galmont.

Wonderful hotel and staff made my stay exceptional. The beds are like sleeping on a cloud.
4.3
The staff was wonderful!
4.3
Over all stay was a 1/5. We had high hopes for this stay and it did not live up to the facade. Trying to give this hotel the benefit of a doubt is difficult as there were many things we encountered.
Upon check in we did not receive any information on checkout times, pool times or gym times. We received no other information other than our keys and room number.
Upon getting into our rooms the beds were extremely uncomfortable, A/C did not work, (we did close the window) luckily the hotel had a fan. Bathroom did not ventilate and the grout had many black spots where it looked as though it should be white. The glass in the tub was not long enough to keep the water from splashing out leading to a very wet floor. Even with the shower head turned away.
Elevators took forever to get to our floor, and it would take you to the incorrect floor even after pressing the correct floor button.
The pool the jacuzzi and hot tub both would not turn on which was a bummer as that was one reason we picked this hotel.
The restaurant, food was good seemed to be understaffed, I was told I should maybe just go order at the bar. The main restaurant area where I was sat had a broken chair arm.
We had high hopes due to the ratings ands pictures and unfortunately did not live up to them, it did have a good salability to pubs.
4.3
Superb hotel in great location - not right in busy main square, but close to all the action - a 5 minute walk. The food was quite good. Lovely views from executive rooms. Strongly recommend this hotel while in Galway if you want an upscale, relaxing stay.

Great hotel
4.3
Spent 2 nights in Galway.Staff was very helpful. Breakfast offerings were great. Easy walk to train, town sq, food and shopping. Fair price for the offerings.
We would go back
4.3
This property should not have as many stars as it does. Hotel itself was nice but rooms were subpar. Our air did not work and windows wouldn’t open so we were in a humid, stuffy room. Our toilet had difficulty flushing despite someone coming up and fixing it (worked once after the fix, then no longer). Sink was clogged. Staff was nice but service was quite slow. Need to do some reworking.
4.3
There was a problem with our air conditioning leaking water in our original room and the hotel was fully booked and the staff gave us a suite. Beautiful room! They took very good care of us.
4.3
Great location. Beautiful hotel and rooms. Best hotel we stayed at while we were in Ireland.
