Friendly and very helpful staff. Excellent location to explore downtown Galway and the vibrant nightlife. The parking is a little tricky, but there is a carpark that patrons of the hotel can use and you get free vouchers from the hotel to cover the cost.

It was a great location, however the rooms were small, only a table fan and one window opened with no screen, and it was hot all night long. Old plumbing, weird shaver, no plug in bathroom, small room with uncomfortable bed. Overpriced for what you get.

Our room was at the front of the hotel so we were woken at 6am every morning with coaches and very noisy lorries stopping outside. Apart from that, the hotel was clean, staff were friendly and location was excellent.

We totally enjoyed our stay at the Victoria Hotel Galway! It was an easy walk to everything we wanted to do. Shop, bus,train,pubs, restaurants and sightseeing. We did get to eat at the restaurant attached to the hotel but I did totally enjoy a lovely cocktail while waiting on my travel partner.

When on a holiday break you should expect a frendly face to greet you,not in this case, to busy on mobiles or lap top. Females like they had on reception before 'covet"(This is our fourth visit and probably our last)£649 to stay for 3 night's in a very small room with no air circulation and woken up at 7.30 to workmen outside.Every thing was expensive,no wonder most irish people go abroad now.it could do with a MAJOR shake up.

This is an ideal hotel for a short stay in Galway. It is in a great location for walking to all the city spots. Rooms were clean and comfortable, albeit a bit tight in size. Restaurant was cool and trendy. The maitre D was very accommodating in providing us with a meal close to closing time. This was much appreciated. Overall, a very good location for a short stay in Galway.
