- Assunta D 10/04/2020Excellent set-up measures for covid 19 !Perfect location.Friendly and professional staff.The room we had was tiny, clean, with all comforts.The breakfast is really good and with multiple choices, the full irish breakfast was amazing.The only problem is: the walls of the rooms are thin, we could hear the doors slamming at night when the other guests returned in their rooms.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 lessIrene Ruiz 4/04/2019Un hotelazo super céntrico. Limpio y von buena atención.read moreread less - Pipermans 4/20/2022OK hotel with a great location. OK, this was a nice enough hotel with an excellent location.
The only strange thing that i'd never experienced before was at the breakfast.
When we asked for coffee - we both drink coffee, 99% of the time we would get a pot of coffee brought to the table. Here at this hotel, we were given a cup of boiling water each, with 2 sachets of instant dried coffee. This is the little coffee packet you would find next to your kettle in the room.
To get a proper cup, we were told we needed to pay 3 euro per cup. I've never experienced this before, otherwise its a nice hotel.read moreread lessLaurenB3080 12/04/2022Great November Stay - ideal location Fantastic staff. Great stay.

Just off Eyre Square, a two minute amble from Ceannt Station, this hotel hardly could be better located. Tired after an eventful trip by bus and rail (don't ask) from Dublin, we decided to dine at the hotel's own Queen Street gastro bar. Mary has the crusted bass and I went for the Queen Stack burger. Both were splendid and decent value too. Even more impressive was the friendliness and efficiency of Paddy and the team. The room, No 306, was spotless and comfortable and even boasted an Espresso machine. Breakfast the next morning was hearty, covering all bases from fresh croissants to a substantial fry, setting us up perfectly for an eventful day on the Aran Islands (shuttle bus to Connemara Aerodrome stops right outside the front door). Then back for a night to remember in Galway's Latin Quarter ... even on a Monday the place was buzzing. For sure, we'll be back toGalway and The Victoria. Moreread moreread less

But they have done work in the Bedrooms. They're lovely, spacious and spotless clean. The girl at Reception I think her name is Zoe was fantastic at her job and was so very helpful and nice with it, also the Barman that was there Friday and Saturday night November 8th/9th he was so good at his job and friendly . I would really recommend this Hotel as it is just around the corner from Train/Bus station and just a small walk from Eyre Square. Really enjoyed my stay here.read moreread less

- E8151BCjamesl 8/08/2021Excellent location and recently refurbished I had read mixed reviews about Victoria Hotel so wasn’t sure about my hotel choice. The poor reviews and photos seem to have been from before the renovations so if you’re looking at traveller photos, look at the date as only the newer photos really apply.
The staff in the hotel are really friendly and we had no issues at all during our stay.
Our room was spotless and the only thing I’d change is the chance to cool it down with air conditioning as it was a little hot at night even with the window open.
The hotel is perfectly located just off Eyre Square. It’s not noisy at night considering how close it is to the square.
We dined 1 of the evenings in the bar and the food was fantastic. It was a nice atmosphere in the bar with all staff adhering to Covid guidelines etc. It was table service only for drinks but the staff were very efficient and we didn’t go without once
Breakfast was a very nice on both mornings. Had to book a time slot but had no issue getting a time we wanted
Just a tip. We priced our stay on Booking .com and phoned up the Victoria to see could they match it. Not only could they offer a better rate, they added breakfast and free parking (our parking bill was €37 for the weekend) so we got a great deal by booking direct. Parking is in Hynes yard about 200m down the road.
Overall I’d definitely recommend Victoria Hotel and I will definitely be returning when we’re in the city again.read moreread less327peterd 2/27/2022Superb value and service Spent two nights here.
