Had a relatively nice stay however they should mention it’s student housing during the school year so lots of students. Which is fine but wasn’t the vibe I was going for. Also the bar attached plays until about 11pm so found the area relatively noisy.

Great location to both bus and train stations, very cramped facilities starting at front door with 2 sets narrow stairs to reach tiny “office”, narrow hallways and toilet stalls barely big enough to turn around in. Hot room during day. Small in-room A/C unit goes on at 8PM and off at 8AM but needed to open small windows x 2 to cool off room of 5 people to be able to sleep. Small community kitchen/breakfast area/gathering spot. 95% clean - showers could have been better. Bunk beds were comfortable, safe facility.

Right beside Eyre Square. Breakfast was delicious continental. Lovely brown bread. Shower room was fine, a little dated.

Place was very friendly. Staff were very helpful especially Tom and Kerry.Very close to city, trains and buses.Also for trips to Aran islands. Not the cheapest of breaks but occasional bargains could be had. My bus home to Shannon and from Knock to Galway were outside the hostel,so no need to be anxious

The atmosphere was fantastic. I am a solo traveler and absolutely loved my experience here. I met some amazing new friends and the staff was also incredible and easy to talk to. The living area reallt lent itself to being an easy place to meet new people.

Nice spot. Staff were very friendly and helpful when I asked for some local options. Breakfast was provided which was a nice surprise. Beds had individual curtains around the bunks, which my previous hostel did not. The additional privacy was welcomed. Parking options were a little bit of a walk, but manageable if you require it like I did. Would stay again.

Was met with a very warm welcome by the worker at the check in desk. Clean, comfy bed. Was room is a good size. Even though I didn't really use the common area, it was well equipped and a good size for the size of the hostel. It's location is perfect for exploring the city. Would highly recommend a stay here.

The Galway City Hostel was in a perfect location near the main shopping area and bus station but surprisingly quiet inside. The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful. The facilities were very clean and the breakfast they provided was yummy.
