“This hotel benefits significantly from its location right on Eyre Square, a prime spot for exploring Galway. While the rooms are modern and well-maintained, I noted some comments about noise from open windows at night. Its dining options, including vegan and gluten-free choices, reflect an admirable commitment to diverse tastes.”
