- 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 lessJerSars 1/22/2022Great staff and lovely stay Staff are so kind and welcoming. They are very knowledgeable of the business and their number one priority is the customer. The room is quite spacious and is quite modern. The bathrooms are very pretty. Hotel is everything you need in the heart of Galway.read moreread lessEvelyn Egan 4/04/2019Very goodread moreread less
- joero 11/23/2021Great hotel, great staff, great location. My son and I are just back from two lovely nights in the Victoria.
Friendly and very efficient check in. Our twin room was a nice size and a nice bathroom with great shower .It is in a great location for bus and train stations. It is also in a great location just off Eyre square .
The food is excellent both at breakfast and dinner. The service is excellent and all the staff throughout the hotel are first class.
I would highly recommend the Victoria Hotel .read moreread lessJoe M 10/19/2021A Gem in the City of the Tribes We stayed here recently for 3 nights and we would rate it as very good to excellent. Location is just off Eyre Square and most city attractions are within walking distance. Parking is available at nearby car park which may be complementary depending on what deal you made on your booking. The hotel may be a bit more expensive than some rivals but we feel it was worth it.
The hotel appeared to be very well maintained and plenty of Covid precautions available, although it was a pity that the hand gel dispenser at the main door did not work at any time over the 3 days. First impressions!!.
Staff were excellent and most courteous, from the housekeeping lady that allowed me jump the Que for the lift when I was bringing in the luggage to the reception staff that sorted out my parking.
The room was spotlessly clean and very well presented, although we both got a bit of a stale air smell when we entered the room as if it had not been opened up for a few days. Maybe good in these Covid times but again First Impressions.
The room was serviced each day with fresh towels and a general clean up.
Breakfast was table service and excellent both in variety and quality as well as quantity. They must have very good kitchen staff because we ate in the hotel for lunch one day and each night also and the fare was excellent. Same menu each night but there was enough for us to sample a variety of dishes.
So overall a big thumbs up to the establishment and if we were visiting the City of Tribes again, we would have no hesitation in staying here again.read moreread lessMags murphy 4/04/2020Nice quiet hotelread moreread less - Sightseer49206 11/23/2022Would highly recommend So I booked a two night stay for two of us to do Xmas shopping. Great deal which included breakfast. Location is superb, we were able to do multiple shopping trips haha. Staff are an absolute delight, especially Ciara on reception. Rooms are absolutely fabulous, booked a twin and got a double and single bed. Incredibly comfortable beds and loved the walk in shower, only thing was the frosted bathroom door doesn't give much privacy. Breakfast was nice but limited on hot food choice - did appreciate being able to change egg option. Plus breakfast is only til 10am. Definitely would book to stay here again :)read moreread lessLorraine B 8/16/2022A great hotel We stayed for 2 nights at the beginning of August. I would highly recommend this hotel.

- FlaminNora1519 3/09/2022Perfect location for our Galway and Aran Islands Trip From the outset this stay was exactly what we needed it to be . The reception gent was excellent - helpful , efficient and experienced . He helped us with our bags , gave directions to the free parking around the corner and answered our questions . The room was excellent and a great location for Eyre square and the City .The breakfast was good quality , efficient and tasty .We stayed here to catch the shuttle bus to Rossaveal ferry terminal to go across to the Aran islands - and it was perfect for that purpose . The pick up point is 10m up the road from the front doors ! We would have left our car in Q park for the four extra days we were away , to make use of the really good discounted rate available after the one night complimentary parking - but that rate is only accessible for 3 days , so we parked elsewhere.( I might have missed that info on the website , but If it isn’t there , it might be useful to add .) overall a great stay . Thanks Victoria hotel team - we will be back . Keep up the good work .read moreread lessFerdia O'Brien 4/04/2018Extremely convenient location. Decently comfortable beds.

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 less73JohnL 5/24/2022Great location Great location. Good value.
