Summary: Upon arrival there was no where to stop and check in and drop of luggage. When my wife went in she felt that the staff was snooty. Everyone else we dealt with was very hospitable.

Summary: Couldn't be anymore convenient. Literally right around the corner from the train/bus station and on Eyre Square. Short walk to good restaurants and pubs.

Summary: This is a lovely historical building right on Eyre Square. The staff are all very friendly and my room was comfortable. I had a nice view of the square on 3rd floor and the room was mostly very quiet. My only quibble, and this is common among hotels in Ireland, is the bathing option. It is a very deep tub with a half door of glass. This is not suitable for those with mobility issues and I'm in great physical shape and it was a pain for me. The shower is in the tub so the water floods the bathroom floor as a half door isn't adequate. This is a recipe for an accident. While a deep tub is luxurious for those who like baths, it's difficult to get in and out of. That said, the hotel is lovely and they offer a plethora of breakfast options which are mostly good. I don't recommend the scrambled eggs on the buffet. In addition, i was thrilled to see a smoothie among the selections, but unfortunately it was grainy and very sour. These are all fixable issues and i hope the hotel is listening.

Summary: The Hardiman is a lovely gem of a hotel in the heart of Galway. Very walkable. The decor, staff, pub, and breakfast were all phenomenal. Room & bathroom were large and comfortable. My only gripe with this hotel was the parking. We had a rental car and did not expect the challenges we faced with parking. The check-in/drop-off car pull-in area is very small - it only fits 3-4 cars/taxis and was full everytime we drove by. There is no signage outside the hotel directing you where to go for parking. The website did mention an off-site carpark that they offered discount parking at, so we routed there. I was surprised to see how far from the hotel it was but luckily, we didn't have much luggage. Other than the parking situation, I had a lovely experience with this hotel. Even the parking wasn't all that bad as the discount was generous and easy to use. It was just a little far and was not advertised well.

Summary: Stayed for two day visit to Galway. The hotel was nice but dated. The staff were kind but overworked it seemed. Over clean place, just needs updating and some fresh paint.
