The retro-funky styling of the rooms was a plus, in the very centre of the city's main street of pubs, restaurants and shops. The staff were super friendly at check-in and check-out. Parking is about a 5 mins walk, no place to pull up and drop your stuff off, so if you do have mobility issues, not sure if it might not be the place for you- might want to contact the hotel. Even though you are right in the middle of the hustle and bussle it was still very quiet. Would definitely recommend for anyone staying in the area and wants to walk the area ##### Rachelle Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Stephanie 18 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Enjoyed our stay here. Great friendly staff and awesome bar on the bottom floor. In a great location with convenient parking. ##### Stephanie Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Sean 21 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Small rooms with different designs. Location and overall hotel experience was great. ##### Sean Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Akasha 28 Feb 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Extremely well located and reasonably priced. Read previous reviews and brought ear plugs for the music and nightlife downstairs, but they didn’t help much with the slammed doors and loud chatter of other guests in the early hours. That said, we knew it was a vibrant location with lots of late activities so it wasn’t unexpected! The heat in the room wasn’t working so they needed to bring up the space heater, and did so right away which was quite convenient. One of the mattresses in our triple room had a major dent but we were just two people so the other two beds sufficed. ##### Akasha Stayed 1 night in Feb 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fiona 19 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Had a few issues but were dealt very quickly by the staff. Highly recommend perfect location. Spanish arch car park is literally 2min walk. ##### Fiona Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jodine 26 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Alan at the front desk was super helpful & friendly, he was absolute gem! ##### Jodine Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathy 3 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Clean updated room. ##### Kathy Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Kimberly 20 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The hotel is located above a bar that has live music. If you're looking to get a good nights sleep before 2am, I'd recommend staying somewhere else. Good walk to all location and clean/newer rooms. ##### Kimberly Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Lynda 5 Mar 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service I want to start by saying the location is great, right on Quay Street and the staff was very kind and helpful. And if perhaps we had gotten one of the rooms overlooking the street as shown in the picture it would have been better. Not sure if it was because we booked through Expedia, but we were put in room 105 which is the smallest room in the hotel and the window looks at a wall (which they tried to decorate with fake vines) with a green neon light that is the same day or night. The room was so hot and we couldn't get their AC system to work. The staff did get it to work temporarily but then it broke agian. Just be sure to ask for a room (#1-3) that faces the street and you might have a better experience. Also, parking is in a garage nearby the hotel (not owned by hotel). They did give us a discount for being a hotel guest and their staff was helpful as well. Just wish we had a full -sized room and a better view. ##### Lynda Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2026 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carrie 4 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stay at this hotel in Galway. Full stop. If you want to be in the thick of everything, this is your place. The staff were so kind and the room was spacious and clean. This hotel is literally minutes from pretty much everything. We WILL be back! ##### Carrie Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Kelly 3 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities The directions to the hotel are a bit confusing due to all the road closures/one way streets. Location is perfect tho! ##### Kelly Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Timothy 5 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities You’re in the middle of it all at the Residence. Great dining and shopping are right outside your door, and the attached pub is great too. Bring earplugs on a weekend! ##### Timothy Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle 21 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a wonderful experience with the bellman at the hotel. He was very personable, and even gave us chocolates for our anniversary celebration. The room was very clean and we loved the decoration. Overall we had a great experience there. ##### Michelle Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Aaron 11 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location! ##### Aaron Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Belinda 9 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Staff was friendly and welcoming :) ##### Belinda Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie 26 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Location!

Will stay here when I go back to Halway. ##### Chris Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Joette 4 Oct 2025 Liked: Staff & service Excellent location in heart of pub & touristy shopping district. Note that the hotel is located directly above popular pub M.Fitzgeralds - secure a room on the 4th floor unless you plan to stay out until 1am. The hotel has agreements with 2 car parks - definitely use Hynes which has much wider spots than Spanish Arch but a bit farther walking to hotel. Entrance to hotel is easily missed so watch carefully. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8a895739-1398-4933-a9f2-8a2cebd2fd90-1759577053016.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Joette Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leanne 21 Mar 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything is within walking distance and the hotel is very conveniently placed in the city ##### Leanne Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Mark 26 Jan 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Very central and has all the mod cons you need for a short stay. ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Villas Tías](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tias-Villas.d182406-aaVillas.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [All-Inclusive Hotels in Nosy Be](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nosy-Be-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d2589-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [4 Star Hotels in Golf del Sur](https://www.expedia.co.uk/4Star-Golf-Del-Sur-Hotels.s40-0-d6356329.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in County Fermanagh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-County-Fermanagh.d6054322.Hotel-Destinations) > - [B&B Fuengirola](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fuengirola-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d5775-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Galway Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galway-Hotels-Galway-Bay-Hotel.h106984.Hotel-Information) > - [5 Star Hotels in Makkah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Makkah-Hotels.s50-0-d178043.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels in Soma Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soma-Bay-Hotels.d603068.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Jabal Akhdar Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sayq-Hotels-Jabal-Akhdar-Hotel.h7399623.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Benburb Valley Heritage Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Benburb-Valley-Heritage-Centre-Hotels.0-l6083445-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Hotels with Connecting Rooms in Tenerife](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tenerife-Hotels-Hotel-With-Connecting-Rooms.0-0-d6047194-thotelwithconnectingrooms.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [B&B Beith](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beith-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d3000012352-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) ### Flights > - [Flights from Schoenefeld (BER) to Bang Phli (BKK)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ber/bkk/berlin-to-bangkok) > - [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Flushing (LGA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/lga/london-to-new-york) > - [Flights from Arnavutköy (IST) to Yenisehir (YEI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ist/yei/istanbul-to-bursa) > - [Flights from Garissa (GAS) to Wajir (WJR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gas/wjr/garissa-to-wajir) > - [Flights from Plettenberg Bay (PBZ) to Cape Town (CPT)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/pbz/cpt/plettenberg-bay-to-cape-town) > - [Flights from London (LON-All Airports) to Zadar (ZAD)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lon/zad/london-to-zadar) ### Cars > - [Enterprise Car Rentals In Fuerteventura](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Fuerteventura.d1263-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Activities ### Holiday Rentals ### General > - [Visit Thailand](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Thailand.dx178) ---
