- Anja W 7/11/2022Very nice Loved being right downtown. You can walk to everything from the hotel. Having free parking was a plus. My only reservation was not having a solid door to the bathroom in our room. It was frosted glass and didn't run the entire length of the door frame.read moreread lessPasenger47 9/28/20215* Staycation Two Nights in the Victoria hotel and we have to say the staff were amazing and couldnt do enough for us.
Covid-19 guidlines very well adhered to, location was perfect for us with Eyre Square only 20 seconds up the street, food and service were brilliant, rooms clean, great breakfast. Staff were very polite especially David the manager.
One bit of advise when booking, we booked at first with booking.com but then got a cheaper rate by booking direct with the hotel and we also got breakfast included and parkingread moreread less435siobhanj 6/05/2022Galway Adventure We stayed at the Victoria Hotel and it was fabulous. The checkin was so easy and staff was so friendly. We stayed in a family room and it was so spacious and clean. Beds were so comfortable and bathroom was lovely.

- rcasey436898 2/02/2023Great hotel in prime Galway position Great hotel ideally situated for visiting this vibrant city with friendly and helpful staff, my only point preventing a five star rating is the somewhat unimaginative ‘continental’ breakfast, the bar meals were very good.read moreread lessS5245ZMpeterr 8/23/2020The heart of the city I love where this place is: all the advantages of proximity to the city without the noise. The family rooms are very spacious and reasonably priced. Restaurant not really in operation and neither is bar and the ‘free drink’ promised on the website wasn’t ever mentioned while here. Nevertheless I’ll be back, because the location is great and the staff are nice - and its keenly priced.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 - Family_Traveler2_IN 10/23/2021Great Value and Location A very comfortable hotel in a great location, right around the corner from Eyre Square. Easy access to downtown pubs and restaurants.
In addition, hotel offers a great breakfast that was included with our booking. You get the choice of one hot AND one cold breakfast meal option from the menu. You won’t go away hungry.
They also validated parking so that we were able to park our car for free at the QPark just a block away.
Staff at the front desk was extremely friendly and helpful. They provided us with suggestions for places to go. Also, gladly printed out our covid test results that we needed for airport check-in.
Definitely would stay here again.read moreread lessPascale Pierart 4/04/2019Dommage. Il manque le sourireread moreread lessBIZI ILO 3/28/2022I love my stay over there..read moreread less - D T 4/04/2019Can't fault the Victoria hotel despite the extensive building work going on when we stayed. Lovely extensive breakfast with so much food and choice, we left stuffed so we weren't hungry all day. Dinner the evening before was pretty tasty. Victoria is a city hotel stuck down in a tight spot but very close to Eyre Square, and all the centre of activities in the city, and its staff and workers are all very welcoming and helpful. The bedroom wasn't huge but the beds were comfortable, having a bath and a shower in the spacious bathroom was wonderful, loads of hot water and all you could need. The decor is tasteful, everything worked. The window was pretty dirty but as it's mid-winter and it was dark when we got in, following a hospital appointment, we pulled the very heavy curtains and slept very well. Great location for doing Galway City on foot and leaving the car behind, as Galway city is NOT recommended for a visitor to bring a car into. Thank you Victoria Hotel, we enjoyed your hospitality.read moreread lessderek G 10/04/2020Rooms are decorated lovely, the staff are helpful and very friendly, and it's near everythingread moreread lessKevConn58 12/02/2021Trip to Galway Booked this wonderful hotel for a recent first time trip to Galway.

It had a great bar, lovely menu good value food and a complimentary cocktail on arrival at the hotel.
