- MEBDM 3/06/2022Fantastic food and service - highly recommended So impressed with the new Queen Street bar in the Hotel, the food was fantastic but the highlight of the weekend was the staff! I have never met a crew where every single person was a joy to deal with and the service was very attentive, second to none with a wide smile!

- 125emman 12/31/2021Good value, great location Location is ideal, right in the city centre. Free parking in a nearby multi storey which is a major bonus! Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Room is standard, clean and modern. Restaurant has been upgraded decor wise, it is very trendy and modern. Cocktails are really good and there is a great selection of drinks. My only negative of the hotel is the food in the restaurant, there wasn't one meal out of the 2 days that any of us enjoyed. Overcooked meat, chips cooked in very dirty oil and also the staff seemed to have no idea about the menu.read moreread lessMartin MUC 4/04/2020Zentrales Hotel, bestens für eine Erkundung Galways geeignet 👍read moreread lessPat Landers 4/04/2020Location excellent.

We had lunch on arrival in the Bar and the food was very nice, as were the staff during our entire visit, so friendly and accommodating.

Lovely room and welcome. We got here 3 hours early but we got us into our room 15 mins after we arrived and the gent on the desk offered great advice and was very helpful. We waited in the bar and got drinks and eggs Florentine for breakfast. That was the only downside. The portion was tiny but in fairness tasted great. Not good value for money. All in all the staff are great and specially our server in the restaurant. I know it's rough times for everyone in hospitality at the moment having just reopened but you're doing a great job. Hats off.

- denbost 10/29/2022Very nice hotel in Galway Center. Victoria Hotel's location was perfect for just about everything, the town center, restaurants, pubs, shopping, train and bus stations. There is a Tour Company steps from the hotel, and your tour bus picks you up across the street. The hotel offers many amenities, including excellent restaurants, a bar, and lounge. The desk staff was accommodating and friendly lounge staff. Our room and bathroom were spotless, and the beds and bedding were clean and comfortable.
This was my second stay in Victoria, Oct 2021 and Oct 2022. I like this hotel so much that I changed my itinerary to accommodate open booking at the hotel.
Moreread moreread lessPhilip L 5/22/2022Nice stay. We stayed here on the 10th-12th May the room & the bathroom was OK. The breakfast was very good good choice of food, the staff in the room where they served breakfast were very good, polite & helpful . one of the best things about this hotel is its location, it's close to the shops & the station is just around the corner, their is a good fish & chip shop in the town called MCDonagh's which is good value.read moreread lessAntonio Sanchez 4/04/2017Céntrico y acogedorread moreread less
