Looking out over beautiful Galway Bay, this 5-star bed and breakfast offers free Wi-Fi, free parking, delicious breakfasts and charming accommodations with luxurious memory foam mattresses.

What a lovely and comfortable place! We truly enjoyed the tasty, plentiful breakfast served in the sunroom. The owner is incredibly kind and attentive. We arrived in the evening, soaked from a heavy Galway rain, and he generously offered to dry our clothes in the dryer. He even shared the recipe for his special spice mix—I'm trying it at home now! The room was equipped with everything one might need for a comfortable stay. I loved the peaceful location and the beautiful view, though having a car is helpful if you plan to return to the Spanish Quarter of Galway.

Great location right in the heart of Galway's night life. The room was great. Small, but had everything we needed. The breakfast was great, one of the best I've had at any hotel. Great service too!

    Very nicely kitted out- clearly the apartment is well designed with lovely views in a pleasant area. The automated check in was slightly irritating but a phone call quickly resolved the problem. Everywhere was sparkling clean! Lots of hot water and gorgeous bedding/towels.

    Lovely welcome from friendly staff with big smiles 😃 Gorgeous design, artwork and decor. Well stocked mini bar, Lovely bathroom with robes (couldn't find the slippers though!). Comfy bed, hair dryer and straighteners. The utdoor heated pool was a surprise and beautiful on a cold rainy day! Great cocktails in Sophies on the rooftop. Excellent service in Sophies too but we didn't have dinner, just drinks.

    This is a really nice boutique hotel, which excels in paying attention to detail in the design of the rooms. I have stayed here several times and will undoubtedly stay here again. The decor is simple, tasteful, and very functional, something that I like. The room was very clean, as was the bathroom and the shower. The food served by the restaurant is nice, and the portions just right (no food wastage).

    The interior design and room furnishings are of such high quality and the mattress was so comfortable to sleep on. The heated outdoor pool and sauna/steam room is nice to try out too. Dinner in Sophies was lovely, again, the new build and style of the building is so nice.
