Comfortable- not close to city center

Nice and comfortable hotel. Nor walkable to Galway city center - we drove and found parking.

Staff was very attentive
Annia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Friendly staff and nice room. A little pricey for a chain hotel that is just far enough away from Eyre square to necessitate knowing the area/transit system unless you're good with taxis.
Andrew, 2-night trip

Clean. Nice comfortable beds. Pillows could be better. Breakfast and dinner were excellent. Easy access in and out of the city. Easy walk into town and nearby grocery for snacks.

Cathy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This primarily business hotel is a pretty solid offering. Underground parking, good security between this and the rooms, and a spacious restaurant for breakfast. Breakfast itself was again solid. Good quality food, competantly cooked and displayed. All staff were efficient and reasonably pleasant.

Favorite and Comfortable

This was one of our favorite stays and it was an equally comfortable as the 5 star hotel we stayed in. We stayed in 7+ hotels this trip with mostly higher end accommodations and 3 different types of rooms per stay so we got to see most of the rooms each hotel offered with a group of 7.
Crystal, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My second stay at a Maldron Hotel. I'm a fan in every way. I'll be back.
