The Ardilaun Hotel Taylor's Hill Road, Galway, County Galway H91 H29F

"Very difficult to sleep at night as the radiator was banging. Old facilities, maybe an older part of the hotel. The night porter did his best for us and offered another room immediately but it involved getting dressed at 3am and walking around and leaving our bags and belongings in the original room, so not ideal. The most surprising thing was that front of house staff did not mention this issue or offer even apologies at check out, never mind a complementary anything because of the disruption at night. I didn't think this was good considering the reputation of the hotel, and the price. I wouldn't be quick to stay here again. Breakfast was nice. Location was good for our purposes."

"Really lovely hotel, a little dated in decor but doesn’t bother me too much. Great staff, slept so well, delicious breakfast, nice pool and very good value for money. Highly recommend."

"Twice had staff knock on my bedroom door ( which had do not disturb sign on) to say smoke was reported in the hallway outside my room. A veiled attempt to accuse me of smoking. Firstly I don't smoke,lost both my parts to cope from smoking ,secondly there was a smoke alarm in my room which I assume was working! Also several in the hallway outside. This soured an otherwise wonderful stay."

"Stayed here for one night to visit the Galway Christmas Markets and it was an ideal hotel for myself and my family. The rooms are so big and comfortable, the grounds are ideal for small children with a fairy trail and so much space to roam and explore. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back! A very relaxed stay for anyone with small children. Would highly recommend!"

"Stayed in the Ardilaun this week. Normally one of my go to hotels in Galway, great location. Staff were very nice and helpful. The food in the bistro was excellent along with the service. On the other side the room was on the cold side, perhaps as it was in the older part of the building. The shower was just about warm when the temperature was turned all the way up and the pressure was not the best. Overall the experience was positive and I will stay here again."
