Top Knocknacarra Hotel Reviews

Nox Hotel

Nox Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is centrally located with plenty of parking. The hotel staff were exceptional. Leslie checked us in with efficiency and a joyful disposition. It made us feel extremely welcomed. Service in the restaurant was also exceptional. James welcomed us at the reception station and served us with enthusiasm. The lobby has tables and places to sit. We made use of the large table and played cards each evening while enjoying wine from the bar. When we were ready to check out, Leslie again checked to see if our stay was acceptable and gave us some tips on what to see. Would highly recommend this hotel for the exceptional hospitality provided by the hotel staff."

Harbour Hotel

8/10 Good
"Nice hotel in a great location. Rooms comfortable and clean. Staff friendly and helpful. Kitchen closes at 9pm. Didn’t do breakfast but had dinner once. Food is fine but many better options a 5min walk away. $13 EU/day parking onsite but very tight spaces and can fill up, but overflow parking in attached public garage is fine. Just bring your ticket to the hotel desk. A 5min walk to the Aran island ferry terminal. Again, excellent location for walking the Latin Quarter and easy access to everything you need…pubs, restaurants, bakeries, shopping, pharmacy, tourist attractions."

Leonardo Hotel Galway

Leonardo Hotel Galway

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for two nights. The location is perfect to be in all of the action. The Spanish Arch is literally across the street. And it nestles along the river. The attached parking garage is ideal and the validate for a discount. (Two nights was 24 EU). The room was comfortable and the A/C much appreciated. The front desk was super helpful. We did the breakfast the morning we checked out. It was okay. Nothing too exciting. But, if you are wanted the authentic full Irish breakfast then here you go! We really appreciated being in the perfect spot to walk around and enjoy all the pubs and restaurants. Would definitely stay here on our next Galway visit!!"
