Hotel breakfast included small buffet and also table service for hot breakfast. Staff were very friendly and helpful! Our room included a bath and great hot shower, comfy bed but the only personal downfall for me was that the pillows weren't comfortable. Would recommend for a quiet stay!read moreread less - Claire M 11/08/2021Great spot My husband and i recently stayed the night in Victoria Hotel.. It was beautiful.

Our room has a nice shower and sink, a comfortable bed and two chairs. Had tv with numerous English and Gaelic channels. No air conditioning but windows opened to cool night air, just a little noisy at times. Overall a good value. Restaurant is in the hotel although we chose other places in town and we're pleased.read moreread lessKim G 9/22/2022Nice Hotel Property in a Good Area We stayed at this property for 3 nights. It was well located within a 15 minute walk to any of the areas within the downtown area. Less to many restaurants in the area.
It was however located on a very busy street - our rooms 106 and 103 were facing the road and extremely noisy - we were moved to an inside room 210 and it was much better so keep that in mind.
The staff onsite were all very pleasant and the morning breakfast was good. There were some continental items and then hot items made to order.
The room was an adequate size. Bathroom had nice fixtures. However the room had no drawer space - not sure why.
Overall it was a good stay and is a recommended property for some time in Galway.read moreread less - Hotels.com reviewer 9/04/2020Excellent hotel.

After a week's stay we can really recommend any type of breakfast, whether it's a full Irish breakfast or the mini Irish breakfast, even the vegetarian and vegan options are delicious. But you are not tied to the menu, personal preferences are just as well fulfilled. The room, facilities and cleanliness were as expected. And the staff is really nice and accommodating.read moreread lessRajan R 6/12/2022Trip to Galway Lovely hotel right next to train station and central area.

From the girls on the breakfast shift to the receptionists and bar servers, all the staff greeted us with a friendly, helpful demeanour. Even the small gesture of fetching plant milk from the nearby store for breakfast when asked about was very thoughtful. The decor of the hotel was very impressive and immaculate, especially the bar area. Our room was clean and fresh, the only factor letting us down being the broken window and the sound of traffic at night because of that. Otherwise, the staff of the Victoria made our weekend away to Galway feel glamorous and special.read moreread lessChristine Mc eleney 4/04/2019Food, bar and rooms were excellent.
