A reasonable hotel, in a great location, with an exceptional bar attached. The hotel itself I would rate 3/5, there were some issues. However, in terms of location within Galway, the Eyre Square Hotel is one of the best available. Nevertheless, the attached bar provided some of the best experience I have enjoyed in a long time. I took my son to Galway to celebrate an achievement of his, he is low functioning with Autistic Spectrum Disorder. We had drinks in the bar staffed by an English barman named James. He was firstly very kind and accommodating, but further, began having a conversation with my son about Whiskey. His knowledge of product seemed second to none, and was able to answer every question my son, who is usually entirely silent, had, many of which were fairly niche and difficult for most people to deal with, and engage him in such a welcoming fashion that I never see. It is a rare thing to be able to engage with my son like this, and make him feel human. We took his recommendation of visiting Barna and had a wonderful time where we wouldn't have known about it otherwise. While being able to serve other guests in a friendly manner, as he was undoubtedly busy, James was able to continue as a kind raconteur with myself and my son, and able to bring about a side of my son I have never seen, and a happiness and welcomeness that is missing from the vast majority of establishments and people. His knowledge of whiskey, Irish natural science and local geography and history were a real treat and surprise from a hotel bar. James managed to make a conversation about local trees interesting to me, but entirely enthralling to my son. We also discussed cocktails, and while none of the ones on the menu struck me, he offered to make me one tailored to me, which I forget the name of, but involved brandy and bitters and was exquisite.
While I had issues with the hotel itself, the attached bar more than made up for this and was a highlight of our stay.

Lovely hotel, great atmosphere Dinner was lovely and didn’t take long to make it to our table. A good buzz in the hotel and the area. Cheers to the staff, all very friendly, Aishling took great care of my friends and I, she was extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel itself was lovely, some noise outside could be heard late at night but other than that it was great! Will be staying again for sure!

Friendly helpful staff, beautiful breakfast 😋. Only downside was the noisy extractor fan right outside the window pumping the kitchen fumes into the room from 6 in the morning til nearly 12 at night. Room was sweltering as a result 🥵🥵

Perfect for a one or two night stay Stayed in this hotel recently for two nights. It was a positive experience. The room was small but had everything you would need. The bed was very comfy. The ensuite was a good size and very modern and clean. The hotel is in the city centre but we were not aware of any noise from the street in our room. The breakfast was good- both continental and cooked breakfast available. Staff were lovely, very friendly and efficient. The only niggles were there is no onsite parking and the hotel does not accept cash as payment for the booking. I would definitely stay here again for a short break.
