Top Merlin Woods Park Hotel Reviews

Maldron Hotel Sandy Road Galway

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was very good, about a 25 minute walk into Eyre Square. Room was so spacious & beds were comfy."

The G Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at the G. The hotel is just outside of the city center, close enough to walk, easy enough to grab a car and be there in a few minutes. There is a small shopping center directly behind the hotel if you need anything. The staff is incredibly helpful with anything you need or just to have a chat. The lounge and restaurant are beautifully appointed with nice views of lake. The food is some of the best food we ate in London and Ireland. The rooms are spacious and clean and have great space to hang your clothes and put everything away so you feel at home. We would highly recommend staying at the G while in Galway!"

The Snug Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk was unbelievably helpful from dinner suggestions to making reservations. Rory was extremely knowledgeable about every little thing we asked about. He’s a great asset to The Sung Hotel l. Absolutely will recommend to friends who are visiting Ireland soon !!!"

Flannery's Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely staff, well-maintained hotel, and spacious, beautifully designed rooms. The brick interior walls make the bedrooms exceptionally quiet. Excellent parking facilities plus a bus stop right across the road with a quick 15-minute ride straight into Galway."

Clayton Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent

"WE HAD A GREAT ROOM, THE BAR AND RESTAURANT WAS NICE AND CONVENENT,, BUT PARKING ALTHOUGH ENOUGH SPACES,, WERE SMALL,, YOU NEED A SMALL CAR,"

Seacrest B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Derek was an excellent host. He provided us with immediate help when we had the car problem. Many thanks. The accommodation was impeccable and spotlessly clean. Great location, beautiful garden, generous and yummy breakfast. Highly recommend. 10/10."

Harbour Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at the Harbour Hotel in Galway! It's in a quiet area by the water but a super short walk to the center of town and everything you'd want to do. The room was clean and well-maintained, and the bed was one of the comfiest and largest I've ever had in a European hotel room. My husband and I have a king sized bed at home in the US, so we usually expect a downgrade when we travel (which is fine), but not in this case! Happily surprised!"

Woodhaven Manor

10/10 Excellent

"Great Manor in lovely little town close to Stirling Castle"
