Overall though, I would recommend visiting here when in Galway.read moreread less

Rooms are clean, beds comfortable, staff friendly and helpful. Rooms are pricy for what you get however the trade off is its location. I would stay here again.read moreread lessMichael Allen 4/04/2020This hotel is undergoing a much-needed renovation. 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 lessB2610EFmichaelk 10/14/2021Excellent! Myself and my friend attended the Victoria Hotel restaurant for lunch yesterday and we were *extremely* impressed. The professionalism and courtesy of the two ladies at the main hotel reception was to set the tone to follow. The cleanliness and layout if the entire foyer and restaurant and bar area was the highest standard. In particular, I was impressed by the Art Deco design of the bar area which I understand had been redesigned recently. A 1920s feel created a unique ambience. Wall designs of tropical plants and verdant growth is a cozy and interesting design feature which we discussed at length. As for the lunch itself, I was very impressed with the Cod and I had a side of Sautéed Onions. As onions are my favourite food, I was eager to taste this and I was not disappointed. They were softly done and not over cooked. My friend had the Gnocchi which was equally excellent. The manager was very professional and helpful and every place should be run like this!read moreread less

- patnewro2022 10/21/2022Galway- the hotel close to everything The staff was so hospitable and kind- they allowed an extremely early check-in after our long flight from Boston. The hotel itself was lovely, breakfast bountiful and nicely served. The location is in the city center, a very short walk from Eyre Square- close to everything! We loved the heated outdoor porch - great for coffee, and for waiting for cabs.read moreread lessNov71 9/17/2021Galway staycation Stayed at the Victoria for 4 nights with my wife.

- heatherm883 12/01/2021Winter get away My husband and I are just home from 3 very enjoyable nights at The Victoria Hotel. From the friendly welcome at check in where the very pleasant receptionist (from Derry) assisted us to move rooms to suit my preferences, the friendly and helpful breakfast server (from Laois) Dearbhla in the restaurant and the lovely Lisa who checked us, the staff are fabulous without fault. The bedrooms are clean and comfy with tea/coffee facilities, safe, hairdryer, toiletries and a television.
We had bed and breakfast with evening meal and everything we ate was delicious and well presented.
Parking was not on site but a few minutes walk to a multi storey car park and free parking with the card from the car park.
Location is perfect with a few minutes walk to the Main Street and within walking distance to most tourist sites.
Definitely well worth a stay and we are now looking forward to an excuse to return.read moreread lessliam brock 4/04/2018Staff brilliant,breakfast really good, room very comfortable,hotel situated about 1 min from Eyre Sq in the center of Galway and if you’re traveling by train or bus get yourself ready for a really long two minute walk from either station.read moreread lessConnector705929 11/18/2021Such a wonderful discovery I stayed here recently & was so impressed with this lovely hotel.

So much so that we ate in the second night too, but still no room left to try the chocolate brownie !Breakfast, great choice also.
Staff very pleasant especially the lovely Dervla who even captured on camera us in our "costumes " the first night, hen as a "box of crayons" and chicks as 7 individual coloured crayons!
All the staff were lovely, friendly, polite and Sarah was our waitress who also did an amazing job!
