Our Location

Tucked right into the heart of Galway’s lively Latin Quarter, The Residence Hotel puts you steps from Quay Street’s best bars, restaurants, and street performers. Whether you're catching a music session in M Fitzgerald's by night or grabbing a coffee by the Spanish Arch by day, you couldn’t be closer to the action.

* We would just like to make you aware, our AWESOME location in the heart of the Latin Quarter means that sometimes there is going to be some noise at night, particularly at the weekend. We do our best to minimise this but respectfully, if you are looking for an early night, we might not be the perfect choice for you. If you would like more details please contact us on info@theresidencehotel.ie
