Shop Street buzzes with street performers while the Spanish Arch stands as a reminder of centuries of maritime trade. Duck into the Galway City Museum to understand the city's evolution from medieval trading post to cultural hotspot. The Town Hall Theatre and Druid Theatre showcase why Galway earned its European Capital of Culture status. Take a breather at Eyre Square before heading to Salthill Promenade for Atlantic views. Don't miss the vibrant Galway International Arts Festival if timing allows. For a wilder experience, venture to nearby Connemara's rugged coastlines and pristine lakes bordered by ancient stone walls.

Nox Hotel

Nox Hotel

8/10 Good

"On the minus side: Location is in a semi industrial area so not close to Galway shopping and nightlife. Internet connection was not working so front desk gave me an admin password. Coverage was spotty. On the plus side: restaurant was very good and breakfast was excellent selection. Hotel was clean but hallways are very dark."

Clybaun Hotel Galway

"The hotel is a bit of distance from downtown Galway. The hotel itself, fantastic!! Breakfast buffet is highly recommended, many options, hot & always replenishing. The gym was dynamite, multiple floors with new & old gym equipment. The Courtyard restaurant had great offerings & very delicious. Mollie, was unbelievably helpful, a pure delight to deal with. She made our stay much better & always there to help out."
