Great hostel for staying in the city on a budget. I had interactions with multiple staff members and they could not have been more helpful or friendly. Made my stay so comfortable. Pub walk with other local hostels every night.

The hostel is right in the middle of Galway and walking distance to all of the pubs and shops. I took part in a pub crawl which was really fun and I highly recommend. What a great time and great hostel.

This was a perfect location in the center of town, right above a fun pub. Staff was incredibly present, friendly and helpful. Breakfast and coffee included, discount on a nearby parking garage was really nice. Lockers and a padlock are provided to keep items safe. Also towels are provided. Privacy curtains on the bunks in shared rooms were very appreciated. Next time, I'd bring my own little travel fan for some airflow and white noise.

I had such an incredible experience staying at Galway City Hostel—this was the last leg of a two week trip to Europe for me, and it was my first time traveling out of the states. I had friends from home with me for other portions of the trip, but was traveling solo when I hit Galway. I could not imagine how I could’ve felt more at home and welcomed here. I had a blast on the pub crawl lead by Luke, guessing people’s zodiac signs with Tom, and getting to know everyone who was around while I was. There’s something special going on at Galway City Hostel!

Everyone who worked there was super nice, there’s a kitchen to cook in and they have a pub crawl. I was easily able to make friends here.

I have never been in an hostel as good as this one! It really clean, with many modern bathrooms and showers. The staff gives free towels and, under a low deposit, a lock to secure your stuffs in a box under your bed. Staff members were really kind and helpful, and especially Sarah helped me a lot with a problem with my booking. Furthermore, Galway is a really beautiful city, I think the most beautiful and peculiar city in Ireland and the hostel is in the city center, at 2 minutes walking by the rail and bus station. Surely I will book in this hostel the next time I will go to Galway….and I will go!!!

It was awesome! Super convenient if arriving by train and incredibly helpful staff (Brian is the best!!!) I worked during the days from the common room and honestly couldn't have been more comfortable. 100% recommend! My only comment would be to make sure you grab your own booze since they don't have any on-site for purchase but there is a store 2 steps away.

Very clean and friendly. Plugs at each bed were a nice addition.
