They do have a nice patio area and restaurant on site, which we did not eat at but it looked great. We stayed here for a 1 night overnight in Galway. It was a bit outside of the city center so I would only recommend staying here if you have a car, if not I would suggest something a bit closer. Was about a 10 min drive in. But far enough out if you don't want the hassle and bussle! Great hotel overall!

Some of the rooms had views of the Ferris wheels and just so you know,the amusement park next door is open on weekends so guessing it'll be pretty noisy! The bar in hotel was handy for drinks!

We can't help but say how wonderful our stay was here at this hotel!…read moreThe hotel staff are incredibly friendly and hard working welcoming large groups of travelers and tourists. The location here is great, right across the street from the waters and a really nice city park to escape from the long day of sightseeing. The bartenders here were extremely nice and kept an eye on everything. Thank you Nyles and Adrian , Vlad for greeting us and making sure that we have a drink and anything else we needed, such as snacks or food. Our bedroom is comfortable and clean, the water pressure is great and hot water is available right away. Our rooms were made up when we returned from our excursion. The breakfast here is great, and there was plenty to choose from. Thank you to the hotel staff at Salthill for making our first visit to Galway a memorable one.

Do not stay here on a Saturday night if your plan is to sleep. We were kept awake until after 2 a.m. the night before a big event of our own. We had earplugs with us, but the music was still too loud. My mother was in a different part of the hotel and had a very different experience, so I suppose we were unlucky. But if you do have to book for a Saturday, make sure you're nowhere near the ballroom.

Also, the price difference wasn't enough to make it worth it. My room was clean, quiet, large enough and very pleasant. Bathroom was clean and the shower was fully enclosed. Plenty of hot water. Other than hanging out in the "cafe" a bit to write some Yelp reviews one evening, I did not use the restaurant. I also didn't use their parking as there is free street parking all around Galway as long as the signs don't show restricted. I did use my Dublin Leap card to ride the bus in Galway - the outbound stop is directly in front of the hostel. They have a laundry facility and I ran one load. No worries other than it's a bit slow. I would absolutely stay here again. Next time, I'll book direct and save a bit. [Review 1928 of 2024 - 110 in Republic of Ireland - 22950 overall]

Lovely reception team Do NOT recommend the food! * The bar -- poor service & short staffed. Five different staff (over 2 days) behind bar counter told us not their job to take drinks orders as they were supporting the restaurant (& to wait for a mythical bar-person...). * The breakfast-- big buffet options. Sit near window if you want any service. Cannot make soft boiled eggs & bring after breakfast is done! Do not get breakfast included. Most things were cold & so many options in Galway. * For weddings -- gorgeous venue & lovely post church spread. But DINNE was a big letdown.

Located just over the bridge, the dining room was clean and welcoming. It looks like the BnB rooms might be through a seperate door off the side of the building. My husband got a burger and Guinness and I had tea and an open faced salmon sandwich. The burger came out with the thick cuts of bacon that we've come to love while visiting. My sandwich was almost like a salad on soda bread. The samon was yummy and whatever olive oil used on the lettuce and red onions was amazingly savory. I'm surprised that this is the first review for this place because its just off the main tourist area. This is a real gem hiding in plain sight!

Service was exceptionally nice at the Anno Santo. We were always greeted quickly upon coming in,…read moreand any questions or concerns we had were addressed thoroughly. Our room was spotlessly clean and comfortably appointed. The bedroom was large and sunny and faced over the street, so we could check out the weather, any traffic, and observe the action on the patio out front. There's a lawn tennis club across the street, but unfortunately I was never able to catch anyone playing. The walls are a touch thin - be aware that you may hear your neighbors! We were there during a concert AND a festival both, and our tipsy neighbors ended up arguing late one night, which we heard in good detail. The bathroom was clean, but the water pressure in the shower was hilariously low. This seemed odd to us because the toilet must have dumped the entire Atlantic each time you flush! If Anno Santo could work out that tiny imbalance, perhaps by installing low-flow toilets, the entire self-prepping experience would have been much improved. You could pay for a whole Irish breakfast, or continental breakfast was included in our price - toast, cereal, yogurt, juice, coffee or tea. The dining area is decorated in a very country-cosy way, and is full of light from the enclosed porch. You could also sit inside near the bar, but why bother when the front room is so pleasant? Overall the Anno Santo was very homey and great for the price.
