The Paddock features garden views, free WiFi and free private parking, set in Galway, 34 km from Galway Greyhound Stadium.

Everything about The Paddock is exceptional. It's a beautiful place to stay, very peaceful but still not far from anywhere if that makes sense. The host greeted us very warmly and made sure we had everything we needed. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, bright and airy and very comfortable. Would definitely recommend to others.

Boutique Guest House is located on Taylors Hill Road, less than 2 km from Galway city centre and 1 km from Salthill.

Loved the kitchen space and being able to sit for a home cooked meal. We happily bought ourselves a steak and served it with a salad. The bedroom was amazing and the bed was so comfortable. Spotlessly clean shower and amenities. A beautiful old home that makes a lovely place for weary travellers to stop and enjoy Galway. Norman was a brilliant host.

    This guesthouse is in a great location - just a short walk and you're in the heart of Galway City. Nice quiet area not a lot of passing traffic. Facilities were excellent and our host Teresa was very pleasant. Would definitely recommend staying here.

    Great location in a quiet neighborhood very close to city center. The room is nice and the breakfast is decent. The host is friendly and accommodating. Entry by door code is very convenient as we came in quite late. Best of all, the room charge is very economical.

    We stayed in a little guesthouse separated from the main house which was very nice and comfortable - we had our own space and privacy. There was a complimentary continental breakfast in the main house which was lovely, we were not expecting that. The house is located in a quiet and very green neighbourhood only a short walk away from Galway centre, we loved that it's away from the bustling city centre. The host was very welcoming and overall we loved the experience!

    The location, the host, the guest house in general were all wonderful. Shauna is a very attentive host who knows her city well and has lots of helpful information for guests. The guesthouse is close enough to the city center to walk everywhere but far enough away for a quiet stay. Breakfast is an incredible spread, and you can't beat being right on the ocean in Salthill.
