Lovely hotel in Galway, great little bar & restaurant attached to hotel. Little farther from the main city then most but still a great location easy to navigate the city.
Really enjoyed our stay. Accommodations were nice and the staff was friendly and helpful. Nice restaurant and bar and seemed like a lot of regulars. I would recommend
The Huntsman Inn was an incredibly nice place to stay. The room was large, clean and welcoming with many amenities (irn and ironing board, coffee machine, tea kettle...). The food was amazing and the staff were very helpful.
Good location, friendly staff, easy parking. Our room was overly warm however and no one is at the front desk to help after 6 pm. Need staff at the front desk all day.

The staff was very friendly and the restaurant was very good. Our bedroom was small, but okay. However, the bathroom needs attention. Super large, but smelled very strongly of bleach when we first arrived. By the 2nd day, the smell turned kind of musty. If the bathroom could be updated or cleaner, our rating would have been a 4.
