Great spot, nice staff, very comfortable. Might not suit light sleepers but we liked going to sleep to the music :-) The breakfast bag is a nice touch.

Bernie Fannon

A fabulous location right in the heart of the Spanish quarter. Our room was beautiful, warm and very clean. All staff were so friendly in the hotel and the 1520 bar next door. We loved the fact that breakfast was served 10.30 - 16.00!!!! Good food as well. We would throughly recommend The Residence Hotel and intend to come back again

Hotel guest

The wifi was down most of the time and we had to go elsewhere to get some work done during a storm. We were looking forward to chilling by the fire. It seems the system may be bit antiquated and perhaps it's better to use a system where you enter a password once instead of logging in every time. Other than that, the Hotel was very comfortable and cozy and service exceptional.

Lively hotel in the middle of the nightlife. Very comfortable and staff helpful. Our only complaint would be the shower and bath which had very poor water flow

We loved our stay, the room was a bit smaller than it appeared online, but we managed. The only hiccup was the garbage was not emptied in our room when we arrived, but it was handled immediately. We loved the location, the restaurant and all the staff. If we are ever lucky enough to be in Galway again, we would stay there again.

The only issue we had was the room is too small for 3 people. There really should only be a double bed or 2 singles. Everything else was just great.
