Visit M. Fitzgerald’s Bar

Your Local, Below the Hotel

Right beneath your feet, you’ll find M. Fitzgerald’s Bar, our traditional Irish bar with a twist. Inspired by Galway’s rich medieval past, it’s a lively space where music spills into the street and every cocktail tells a story.

Open daily, M. Fitzgerald’s serves hearty bar food, refreshing pints, and cocktails with an Irish twist - with a soundtrack of Galway’s best live music. It's more than a bar; it’s a celebration of Irish culture, old and new.
