Galway City Hostel

It was my first stay here but certainly not my last! The people at the reception are really friendly. It has a small but good kitchen with a lot of supplies one might need for cooking. I got sick a day before I checked out and the receptionist who worked there that day was so lovely. She gave me a cooling sachet and asked if I needed any other help. Felt really good and safe here.

My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Galway City Hostel. I cannot recommend a better place to stay. The staff are welcoming, helpful, and attentive to everything you could need, as well as friendly and lovely to get to know! Breakfast is delicious, and the kitchen is fully equipped. The rooms are clean, with space to lock up your things safely. We met many amazing people during our short 4-day stay. The hostel even organizes events like bar crawls to encourage socializing!! Finally, the location is smack in the center of Galway which makes visiting the city incredibly easy.

This was my first female solo traveling experience and it really could not have been any better. The staff were incredibly friendly especially Sarah at the front desk and Conor who led an amazing pub crawl through the city. I was also so lucky to have met the best group of people during my stay. The rooms and bathroom were clean and efficient and I can’t recommend this place enough!

It was a good experience to live here. Perfect location at the heart of the city. Only few minutes walk from Galway coach station and next to train station. They can help to book tours to cliffs of moher and Connemara (€35-50 adult). Lot of french, Canadian, Spanish, American, etc. teenagers. They organize cheap dinner, costing €5. There is a kitchen area for hanging out, dine in and coffee. Indoor board games available. Cooking not available. Free delicious and healthy breakfast included in the price. Toilets are in good condition. Don't forget to bring your own toiletries. Negative sides are: the rooms are packed with 10 people on bunker beds. Sometime it's annoying to live with different people cause a fly in the bucket of milk can spoil everything. Sometime roommate snoring, drinking to much and forget how to behave. There is a bar at the ground floor which playing loud music and people screams, can easily penetrate through the window and destroy a sound night sleep. I never recommend this place to couples. Good luck 🤞

I spent 2 nights in a 4-bed bedroom, and it was a really good time! The staff there was really friendly and helpful, the room was nice with good beds, lockers under the bed, curtains for privacy, and a towel was given when checking in. The location is very central, in front of the train station and Eye square, which was very nice, and also very close to pubs and restaurants, and supermarkets

Such a great place! The dorms, kitchen and bathroom are always clean and in good condition. The hostel is located close to the centre of Galway. I was planning to spend 2 weeks in the hostel but prolonged my stay for 2 more weeks. The staff is super lovely and made me feel like home from the first day, especially Tom who has been incredibly nice and welcoming towards everyone in the hostel. He has made travelling alone for the first time a lot easier for me. The hostel has a very cozy common room where everyone can spend time and come together. To sum up, I would absolutely recommend this hostel and would definitely come back here when returning to Galway!
