Rooms

All good

Lovely People Check in was busy so we give extra credit to the friendly and patient way we were dealt with. The room was above standard in terms of size and had a lovely view of Galway Bay. A complimentary tray of treats left in our room and personalised to congratulate us on our wedding anniversary was a lovely surprise. The team at the Salthill Hotel made us feel very special. This a remarkable achievement in such a busy hotel. The Prom restaurant was very convenient and their two course deal was very tasty and great value. The excellent service continued at breakfast. Lovely people working at the Salthill Hotel.

Everything that we could have wished for. We enjoyed a very pleasing stay in this hotel. There is nothing to fault. Our bedroom was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The staff (certainly those that we encountered) were courteous and attentive. We had our evening meal from the bar food menu and the options were plentiful and delicious. The choices at breakfast were wide ranging and it would have been almost impossible to leave the hotel hungry.

A shout out in particular to the Reception staff.

Great staff .I stay with groups and always as great experience The staff are excellent. Rudy in the dining room the manager is really great even with a full restaurant he was able to help and accomadte nothing was too much .

Family stay in Salthill This was a short visit to Galway for a family birthday. We (3) had 2 nights in a very spacious bedroom with a lovely clean modern bathroom.
We ate both nights in the bar, fresh seabass and hake the following night. They also do a fab curry and gorgeous Eton mess for dessert.
The staff in this hotel really go out of their way to be friendly and helpful. Even under pressure when breakfast is busy.
There are two coffee machines that are self-service so you can get your cappuccino in the morning. They have good selection for breakfast, and will cook your eggs to order.
We were taken great care of by everyone from the minute we arrived.
Would recommend this hotel, only two minutes to the sea also if you like the water!

Two wonderful stays in the Salthill Hotel My wife and I had a 3-night stay in the Salthill Hotel during the Galway Comedy festival. We had chosen room only stay because we knew we would be in town all day each day visiting friends and our son who is in University of Galway. As below, it was our second time staying in the hotel this year and it was "top notch" again. While we had plenty of rain during our stay, we still got to do long walks on the prom and into town: when it was too wet there are a couple of bus stops close by which bring your straight into town with the result that we left the car parked up in the hotel car park for the entirety of our stay.

In July 2025, we had stayed in the Salthill hotel for 4 nights as a family of 6 plus my wife’s parents had joined us. It was my fifth time staying in the hotel but a first for everyone else. We were hosting a lunch on one of the days for a family group of 22. The weather was beautiful with a pleasant breeze most days, and to be fair having no rain was such a bonus for a stay in Galway. Having the prom and beaches across the road is such a cool part of the hotel's facilities. Our stay was excellent throughout: the rooms were spacious and really comfortable and some of us used the leisure centre every day that we were there. Food was very good, and we had breakfast in the hotel each morning. Staff were excellent and looked after us and our guests with a lovely atmosphere and old school hospitality and efficiency.

Best stay A fabulous stay. Service across the entire hotel was first class. Gym great. Hadnt stayed here for a couple of years and it's really upped its game, in terms of rhe overall condition and atmosphere of the hotel. Staff genuinely seem to enjoy what they do and make sure it's a positive experience for their guests Food and service were brilliant, staff were very accomodating when I asked for an extra night, confirmed within minutes and I didnt have to change room. 401 bus outside the door brings you into the centre in less than 10 minutes ot taxi was about €10. One of my favourite stays in Galway. Thank you and I'm looking forward to my next visit

Wedding July 2025 Myself and my husband Adrian got married in the Salthill Hotel in July 2025. After viewing a few other hotels, the minute we met with Valerie, we knew we weren’t going to be going anywhere else.
From the second we met Valerie, she made us feel so welcome and really listened to what our wants for the day were. Her passion for her job shines through at every moment and we got the impression that she really cared about helping us, creating our perfect day. She went through so many things with us that day that we had not even thought about. Her experience in the field is unmatched, she almost doubled up as a wedding planner, keeping us on track at every step and ensuring we were hitting deadlines when we needed to.

As well as being a complete and utter professional, above all, she is a genuinely kind and beautiful person. Weddings can be stressful enough to organise but one thing we never had to stress about, was how the salthill hotel would work and look on the day.

We then met Stephen at our menu tasting and again, he made us feel so welcome and treated us so well! Stephen and Valerie compliment each other so well and make the perfect team.

There is not one thing we can fault the Salthill Hotel on. There was plenty of food and drink at our reception, the service from all staff was brilliant, the food at the meal was exceptional and the place looked amazing.

Without a doubt, Salthill Hotels biggest asset is having Valerie and Stephen! We could not recommend them enough and will never be able to thank them both for the role they played in ensuring we had the best day ever.

Thank you both so much,
Clare Ann and Adrian

Great stay Lovely hotel in a lovely location. Very helpful staff to accommodate a big crowd of us wanting to eat - they were happy for us to move a couple of tables. We were there for a wedding which was beautiful

Salthill Hotel Attended this hotel for my nephews wedding. Had an absolutely amazing experience, hotel is spotless and the decor is beautiful. Location is 5 star, as are the staff, the most helpful and friendly I have ever met. Would highly recommend 5 🌟 plus

Customer care 🥰 We had an exceptional experience at this hotel yesterday. We had an issue with our food order that was completely our doing. I spoke to the lovely waitress who promptly contacted the manager ( we did not get his name unfortunately)
This man’s style of hospitality was so impressive and caring and efficient. He sorted everything out for us and was more than fair. 10/10. I did not think this level of customer care existed anymore. Kudos to everyone working at Salthill Hotel 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Wedding Celebration The Salthill Hotel is first class when it comes to celebrating a wedding. We had a very special day for our daughter's wedding. The Wedding coordinator, management team and all the staff were so nice. They all helped to make the day very happy and memorable. Thank You.

Lovely weekend I went to a friend's wedding and almost everything was wonderful! We had to change rooms because there was a horrible smell. The reception was perfect but I thought some of the waitresses were a bit slow, maybe because they were very young. I especially want to thank Marco (Polo), lol, for personally welcoming us, he was so kind. I also want to thank Sol from reception and Alan, the porter. He helped us with all our luggage, and he was so lovely and polite. Thank you all!

Family holiday The hotel is fab lovely walk into the city or bus just outside the entrance if suits better. The rooms are lovely we were a family that needed 2 rooms and were accommodated with side by side rooms.
The food in the bar was fantastic on each of our nights, tiny bit slow but well worth the wait, breakfast also great with a lovely variety. Well worth a visit

Fantastic Hotel and even better staff! We stayed one night at the Salthill Hotel and had the pleasure of meeting Tommie, the breakfast manager, who truly made our visit memorable. We first met him during lunch, where he warmly welcomed us and recommended great spots to check out in the city. The next morning at breakfast, he welcomed us with a big smile and he was just as friendly and helpful, going out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. His kindness and local knowledge really added a special touch to our stay. Thanks, Tommie!

Top choice for Glaway visit Super hotel, great location and staff are very accommodating. Highly recommend. Right across from the Blackrock diving great spot for some sea swimming.

Lovely hotel in great location Excellent location, spotlessly clean comfortable room with lovely view of the bay. The friendly, helpful staff made the stay very comfortable. Excellent car parking as well.

A good week’s holiday in Ireland A very comfortable hotel with friendly, extremely helpful staff. The location, directly opposite various beaches, is perfect for families. We ate evening dinner in the bar on most nights, and found its menu varied, generous and appetising, and always cheerfully served. The bar is so popular that it’s a good idea to book a table. The swimming pools were outstanding for a hotel - very modern and spacious and always spotless. The hotel is very well maintained, with an elegant reception area, but some of the furnishings are beginning to show, and feel, their age. Bedrooms are well kept and we appreciated the air-con on a hot day. On one day, one of the lifts broke down, awaiting repair, and we found exiting the carpark sometimes problematic. But overall, a lovely holiday. We chose our hotel well!
