I recently stayed at a hostel in Galway and had an amazing experience. The staff were down to earth and had an easy-going attitude. The rooms were bright, airy, and spacious, and the entire place was clean from top to bottom. They even had free fast wifi and decent Mac computers in the reception area. Plus, the location was perfect, right in the heart of the city. I highly recommend this hostel for a memorable stay in Galway.

Amazing staff, very friendly and knowledgeable. Clean room and common areas. Security policy made me feel safe. Great breakfast with a variety of options. Convenient location, close to city center and bus station.

Some rooms had a strong odor.

I got excellent value for my money at Kinlay Hostel Eyre Square. The big room for 10 people was spacious and the bathroom was nice. The location was perfect, with all the shops within a short 10-minute walk. The staff, especially Leo, were incredibly helpful and made my stay enjoyable. The beds were clean and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The lobby was beautifully decorated and comfortable, with art everywhere.

The hotel breakfast could be improved by offering more variety.

Great central location near train station and Cliffs of Moher tours. Good breakfast options. 24/7 reception with friendly staff. Helpful with luggage storage. Clean rooms with fan and convenient locker storage.

The value for money at this hostel was great, with comfortable rooms and plenty of amenities. The location was ideal, being close to the bus station, and the staff were helpful and friendly.

The only improvement I would suggest for breakfast items would be to have a wider variety of fresh fruit available.

We had a fantastic stay at the hotel! The private twin room was clean, modern, and had comfortable furniture. The shower had instant hot water and the towels and linen provided were soft and smelled lovely. The 24-hour reception was helpful and friendly, and they offered free baggage storage. The hotel had a great atmosphere, with a lobby area to relax and play pool. The location was perfect, right in the middle of town and close to the train station. The breakfast included cereals, bread, butter, and juices, which was sufficient for a good start to the day. this hotel provided excellent cleanliness, facilities, location, and staff.

Nothing, it is perfect.

kinlay hostel eyre square was a game changer! individual outlets in the dorm saved my phone from being unplugged and the location couldn’t have been better. cleanest and friendliest hostel I've stayed at! can’t wait to go back!

outlets in the dorms

We had an amazing stay at this hostel. The staff was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The location was perfect, just a short walk away from all the shops and attractions. The price was great, especially considering the excellent facilities provided. The kitchen, lounge, and pool table were all available for our use. We also appreciated the convenience of the on-site vending machines and the ability to purchase any necessary items. Breakfast was delicious, offering a variety of options like cereal, toast, and fruit. The planned evening activities, such as movie nights and pancake nights, were a fun addition to our stay.

Couldn't stay longer.

kinlay hostel eyre square was the best choice for our golf trip! the breakfast was varied and delicious, the staff were friendly and accommodating, and the beds were so comfortable and private with curtains. the €5 dinners were a great value and the pub crawls were a blast. highly recommended!

movie night choice was questionable

kinlay hostel eyre square was even better than my previous stay in galway. the quad room was spacious with a secure storage option under the beds. the lobby was stunning and had plenty of comfortable lounging areas. loved the rooftop vibe on the backside of the property. bathrooms and showers were spotless.

bed assignment confusion

The staff were friendly and helpful, showers in each room, central location, organized pub crawls, clean and well-equipped kitchen, spacious and comfortable rooms.

There was nothing I didn't like.

The rooms were comfortable, with individual lights, outlets, and curtains for privacy.
