comments The hotel was excellent value for money. Great location. Staff very friendly and helpful. Love the all day breakfast, fantastic idea. Only downside, and for most this would not be a downside is that we found the room to be to warm. Would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel. Thank you for the wonderful stay.

comments Fron the moment we entered the premises we were treated with a friendly welcome, all staff we encountered were most helpful and courteous. The tea and scones on arrival were a lovely treat, deeply appreciated on a bitterly cold day.Dinner was excellent especially the steak which was second to none(hopefully Irish).Overall excellent value for money.

comments I would like to thank all the staff that our stay (it was my mum's 60th birthday) was an absolute pleasure. Since the minute we arrived we were treated as special guests and it never stopped for a second. Excellent service at the reception, in the morning at breakfast, at night in the restaurant, etc. I would recommend Forster Court Hotel to anybody and I will. I will choose this hotel next time too when I'm in Galway.

The option of having an all day breakfast and the no time limit on check out is a great idea and allows guests more time to enjoy the hotel. The food in the restaurant was varied, reasonably priced and delicious. Overall a great stay and we will be returning.

comments I am glad you sent me this form as I was intending to write to you but never got around to it. We had a wonderful time in Galway. We arrived around 11 much earlier than our check in time and we were given a room that was ready as it hadn't been used the night before. This was most convenient but not expected. The staff at all times were friendly, happy, and most helpful. I would recommend this hotel highly to anyone going to Galway in terms of location, service, facilities and we will be back to visit again for a longer stay. Thank you very much. Joan Hunt

comments I would like to say first of all i booked on line and in never said your hotel was under construction. We were shocked that we couldnt go for a drink or food in the hotel, i know its pretty central to go else where for food and drink but thats not the point we should have been imformed. when we checked in we were never told we read a notice about it-- not impressed. we checked in got up to our room, room was nice. 5 hours later we were taking the car out cost €14.00 and €10.00 the next morning so much for €10.00 over night!! we went to the lady on the desk and she told us there was nothing she could do. overall dont think i would rush back.

comments Everything was wonderful, from check in to check out! We had drinks and food in the bar, staff were very frendly and helpfull. The reception staff could not have been better, I had booked for two nights but at different times so different bookings with the first night being a triple room and the second just a double, they allowed me to stay in the same room for both nights, this saved me a lot of time and effort. When I heard breakfast was served till 12 I was delighted as I was in Galway for my Graduation and didnt want a very early morning. The only small thing that bothered me was the breakfast staff, they gave us no welcome, never explained were we could sit or about the buffet or ordering our breakfast. Once we were served they ignored us until we left, as they had cleared in the buffet at 11.55 I had to go looking for a staff member to get more orange juice. I am a recently promoted duty manager in a hotel and found that it is a shame that such a small thing would put a dampner on such a wonderful hotel Debbie Toner

comments Very comfortable couple of days at the Forster Court in October. Room was certainly better than expected (upgraded from single to large double which is always nice !). Good bathroom with toiletries and fluffy towels, and excellent white pudding included in the Full Irish breakfast. Certainly handy enough for the Galway nightlife, albeit a long walk down down to Salthill for the city's only craft ale pub - ah well !

comments This is an excellent hotel in a great down-town location. Restaurant served good food with friendly service (especially young waitress, Etha). Our only wish was closer parking. If we are in Galway again, we would certainly hope to stay at Forster Court.

comments Unfortunately the weather was very hot, which was the only reason we were uncomfortable as the weather was unusually hot the weekend we stayed there. We have recommended it to family and friends though as we know that that was a sheer question of timing. everything was wonderful. the late breakfast was fantastic as we were both just finishing long weeks as work so it meant we got lots of rest and relaxation. the bar had very excellent entertainment on the Thursday night with the big band and all in all everyone was very friendly and helpful

comments For the price, Forster Court really can't be beat. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating. Was originally only planning to stay in Galway one night, but ended up coming back to Galway later in the week and didn't think twice about booking a room at Forster Court again. Would absolutely stay here again the next time I'm in Galway.

comments Everything was really great. I had to ring the hotel once or twice to ask different questions and each time the person on the phone was so pleasant and helpful. The room was absolutely beautiful and had a nice view. The staff were just great and so welcoming. I am definitely recommending this hotel to everyone I know. Such great service for such a cheap room, definitely worth a visit... Or two... The only one complaint (and why I did not give 5/5) that I would have would be that there is no free parking. Still €10 for 24 hours isn't the worst!

comments Generally very satisfied indeed. Staff was friendly and courteous, helpful and efficient. Room was pleasant, spacious, well-equipped and clean. The only negative was the breakfast room which was very cramped and noisy on the two mornings there was a large tour group present. On the other hand, the breakfast was good and ample, and the service, pleasant and rapid. I would definitely recommend it.
