comments Co. Louth couple stayed Sat and Sun nite for the Galway Oyster Festival Sept 09. We had a meal in the hotel on the Sat nite and it was the best medium beef I have ever ate, amazing value at 20 euro for 2 course incl free cocktail. Comfy Room 214 was lovely with great tea and coffee instant machine and a class bathroom and shower. Prefect location, only 2 minutes walk from Quays Bar. All in all 100% weekend break A++ for House Hotel staff

comments We stayed in one of the larger suites for six nights. It was very nice and the king size bed was very comfortable. A morning paper was at our door each morning. Although there was not a view from our room it was really quiet. Morning breakfast was always good. The staff was courteous and always nice. The location to shops and restaurants was great. Everything was just a block or two away. We walked almost everywhere. I would definitely recommend this hotel and I will definitely stay there again when in Galway. Thank you House Hotel for a wonderful stay.

comments We stayed at The House Hotel for w/e 18/19th April 2008 and found the hotel to be everything we expected and with very professional staff. Breakfast was excellent. Although the weather was quite cold we found the room ( 304 ) to be too warm, save some energy, and the window only opened a few cms. for fresh air. A very enjoyable stay.

comments The House Hotel was completely different from any hotel I have ever stayed in. I would recommend this hotel to young couples. The hotel is decorated very stylishly and comfortably. The bedroom we stayed in was a nice size with a great tv! I think the small touches that this hotel provides make it outstanding from other hotels, e.g., the coffee machine in the room, the music library, locitane toiletries and the complimentary cocktail in the bar. I will definately be staying here again!!
