Heerlijke uitvalsbasis met fijne parkeerplaats
Pros:

De vriendelijkheid van het personeel en het heerlijke ontbijt.

Cons:

Het is echt wel een half uur lopen naar het centrum en dat is niet langs een leuke route. De bus gaat 1x per uur en soms gaat hij helemaal niet.

great hotel just outside Galway city centre
Pros:

delicious food (breakfast was exceptional, and we had pizza one evening in our room), very friendly staff all over the place! :)
walk to the city centre: approx. 20-30mins

Cons:

there was some painting work done outside of our room, but they tried working when we left the hotel, so it was just a tiny aesthetic minus ;)

We will definitely stay here whenever we visit Galway.
Pros:

My wife and booked our stay here because of the proximity to an excursion to the Cliffs of Moher. The hotel reception staff was cheerful and quite knowledgeable with our Cliffs itinerary and most willing to arrange transportation to our collection point for the excursion. We thuroughly enjoyed the buffet style breakfast with many "custom" requests on our part. We also enjoyed the unique dinner menu. The wait staff was very attentive and made our dinner experience one to remember. When we visit Galway the Menlo Park Hotel will be the place we stay!

Tolles Hotel mit herzlichem Personal, super Frühstück und großen, sauberen Zimmern!
Pros:

Einfach ein tolles Hotel – absolut empfehlenswert!

Wir waren rundum begeistert von diesem Hotel!

Besonders hervorzuheben ist das äußerst freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal an der Rezeption. Ein großes Lob geht vor allem an die Dame aus Österreich und ihre Wohnungskollegin, bei der wir am Vorabend eingecheckt haben. Beide waren ausgesprochen herzlich und zuvorkommend.

Auch das Frühstücksbuffet ließ keine Wünsche offen. Die Auswahl war hervorragend und alles war sehr ansprechend präsentiert.

Unser Zimmer war ausgesprochen geräumig, bestens ausgestattet und vor allem tipptopp sauber!

Leider hatten wir für unsere zweite Nacht in Galway ein anderes Hotel direkt im Stadtzentrum gebucht – eine Entscheidung, die wir im Nachhinein sehr bereut haben!

Wir hätten definitiv lieber noch eine weitere Nacht hier verbracht. Ein wirklich tolles Hotel, das wir uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen können. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Cons:

Die Cocktails an der Bar waren hervorragend und das Personal war bemüht. Allerdings war die Wartezeit leider sehr lang, bis wir bedient wurden.

Good location.
Pros:

Lovely looking hotel in great location.

Cons:

The coach tour also staying here took priority over other paying guests. The restaurant at breakfast was empty except for two workmen. All tables were reserved for coach tour. We had to have the table not reserved by the entrance so everyone then was walking past our table to get in. Coffee served in this 4star hotel is machine coffee. No fresh coffee. Breakfast was stingy for a vegetarian, not self service, the chef served one fried egg one hash brown and small pot of beans!
