I stayed in this hotel with a friend as we had decided to go to Galway for the night. I had made the reservation over the phone while we were on our way to Galway and had requested a twin room. Upon check in we were told we were given a twin room but when we went into the room... More

Own room?: Check. Clean sheets, towels, surfaces, bathroom?: Check TV, desk, closet?: Check Bar/restaurant/local craic downstairs?: Check Maybe I got lucky on my two stays there, but I can't praise this place more. Of course I was there in off-season and perhaps biased by the rate (about the same as cringing in a hostel bunk bed) in March, but simple... More

We traveled mid week to spend two nights in Garveys. I had read previous reviews and was not expecting much. What I did find was a hotel with friendly and helpful staff. The rooms were small but clean, the hallway did smell strange but didn't impact on the room, so didn't really matter. The food was great we ate both... More

Anyway arrived expecting the worst but I needn't have worried about a thing. The staff were very friendly, the lift looked like it was quite new. Had a room on the second floor... More

Well I stayed here on and off through my travels in Ireland. I would say I was here for almost 2 weeks. Yes, it smells like diesel but that is the top floor, the other floors are fine. It is not as pronounced as most people stay unless your in the hallways. The rooms are fine. The owners act on... More

Dated Rooms are very basic. Remote control doesn't work on the 20yr old tv. Constant noise outside means you can't get a sleep.Double Beds are like concrete and would barely fit a large man. Shower is hit and miss for hot water. The staff are nice enough.This place is perfect if your on a drinking session but do not stay... More
