Dear Guest, I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and I am delighted that there were many aspects of your visit that were to your full satisfaction. It is always lovely to read that our Team provided our Guests with a Super Friendly service and that you enjoyed your dining experience and our live enterainment in the bar. I am sorry that you found the room stuffy, we could have provided your room with a fan, had we known. We do not have iron or iron boards in all of our rooms, however, they are available on request, which is mentioned in our in room Guest Information. I hope that should you visit Galway again you will consider staying with us and thank you for staying. Kindest regards, Louise Pettit Guest Relations Manager

Location was perfect, plenty of car parking available, staff are friendly and welcoming, quick check in and check out. The walk to the room was very long and the room was very humid even with the window open, it would be good to have a fan or AC in the room. Extractor in the Bathroom was not working either.

Dear Guest, Thank you for your 4/5 rating. I am very happy that you enjoyed many aspects of your stay. I am sorry that you found the room too far away and humid. We would have tried to allocated you a room near reception if you had let us know and we will gladly provide a fan to the room on requests, as like many Irish hotels, usually there is no need for air -conditioning with our climate. There is also a maintenance team in the Hotel, who would have gladly addressed the issue with your fan during your visit. I hope that you will consider returning to us again on your next trip to Galway. Thank you for choosing to stay with us. Kindest regards, Louise Pettit Guest Relations Manager

However, we make every effort to ensure that our Guests are greeted and seating as quickly as possible. I hope that we will have the pleasure of looking after you again on your next trip to Galway.
