Excellent B&B in ideal location

Excellent stay, well worth the money and in an ideal quiet location within walking distance of city centre and coast, or use the regular bus service if you don't want to walk. Can't fault the room and service from Tony and family, although it would be nice to have a kettle in the room itself. A++

Absolutely beautiful home with kind and friendly family running this B&B. The room and entire home were immaculately clean. The breakfast was lovely, and everyone we encountered in the family was so helpful and friendly. Parking is available but tight so hopefully you have a small car like we did. 20 minute walk to downtown Galway, but also close to a downtown area in Salthill and the lovely Salthill Promenade. Would definitely stay again.

The staff was very helpful when we needed anything. It’s located in a quiet neighborhood and parking right up front. However; if there’s too many cars in the parking area; it can be a little bit of struggle to get out. There’s a bus stop right out in front that goes straight to the city center.

A little gem in Salthill

We stayed here for 4 nights to use as a base to visit Galway and the surrounding area. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming. We had a beautiful freshly cooked breakfast each morning. Our room was spotless and we had a front room overlooking the little garden with beautiful roses. We were a 5 minute walk from Salthill and 10 minute walk from Galway, perfectly situated.

Lovely stay away here for two nights. Cleanliness was to a high standard given the current COVID19 situation with temperature checks on arrival. Hosts were really helpful supplying us with local tips on our daily trips and the breakfast was brilliant and anything we wanted was provided on request.

Wonderful B&B

This is a wonderful B&B! It is conveniently located near Salthill and the main square in Galway. It's a short walk to Salthill, which is a small area that has some good restaurants.....check out Beetle Cat! Galway main square is a 20+ minute walk or a short cab ride. The property itself is great too! Room was very comfortable. The host even packed us a breakfast to go since we had to leave early in the morning.
