Classic Triple Rooms

Fantastic Hotel and even better staff! We stayed one night at the Salthill Hotel and had the pleasure of meeting Tommie, the breakfast manager, who truly made our visit memorable. We first met him during lunch, where he warmly welcomed us and recommended great spots to check out in the city. The next morning at breakfast, he welcomed us with a big smile and he was just as friendly and helpful, going out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. His kindness and local knowledge really added a special touch to our stay. Thanks, Tommie!

A good week’s holiday in Ireland A very comfortable hotel with friendly, extremely helpful staff. The location, directly opposite various beaches, is perfect for families. We ate evening dinner in the bar on most nights, and found its menu varied, generous and appetising, and always cheerfully served. The bar is so popular that it’s a good idea to book a table. The swimming pools were outstanding for a hotel - very modern and spacious and always spotless. The hotel is very well maintained, with an elegant reception area, but some of the furnishings are beginning to show, and feel, their age. Bedrooms are well kept and we appreciated the air-con on a hot day. On one day, one of the lifts broke down, awaiting repair, and we found exiting the carpark sometimes problematic. But overall, a lovely holiday. We chose our hotel well!

Wedding at Salthill Hotel! My daughter got married in Salthill Hotel Sept 2025. It was a destination wedding as we live in the US. The wedding was 265 people most of which traveled from the US. I cannot say enough about this hotel. (We stayed for a full week.) In fact I find it hard to write this review as there are so many things I want to say about the amazing experience we had from the beautiful ball room, food, and grounds to the amazing staff. If you are considering this hotel for your wedding do not look any further. You honestly would be hard pressed to find better.

A special thanks to Valerie who is the wedding manager. She is kind, smart, thoughtful, and thinks of every detail. She guided us before, during, and after the wedding. We honestly could never imagine pulling off a destination wedding of this size without her. Shane and Steven were always on hand during the wedding making sure everything was running smooth. They were full of good humor and always a smile when they greeted us. George the bar manager could not have been more attentive. He met with us before hand and helped us decide on signature drinks etc. He made sure there was plenty of bar staff on to handle such a big and young crowd coming from the states.

The meal served at the wedding was beyond excellent. The choice of menu was extensive and honestly was way beyond our expectations. The venue was stunning on Galway bay and made for gorgeous wedding photos.

I could go on and on but I will leave it with this hotel/wedding venue far exceeding our expectations and we will be forever thankful to the staff for all of their guidance and support. You truly could not find better people to work with.

Comfy bed, warm room, lack of air con. But would stay again. We stayed for the night, on a short visit to Galway. On arrival, the car park seemed full, we eventually realised there was additional parking underground. Walked into the entrance foyer which we found to be bright, and welcoming. Check in was a breeze, and the reception staff where friendly, there was only one to start but as a que started forming more staff appeared to ensure people where checked in swiftly. Found the room to look a tad dated, but that a personal preference, however the room was clean, tidy and fairly well presented. There is some signs of age with the room. The down sides to the room. The lack of air con, which I suspect my have been down to the room grade, however fans where provided. There where a few signs of age: Wallpaper peeling behind the radiator. Black spots above the laps, probably caused from old incandescent bulbs, (LEDs are now fitted) Chips in the paintwork on the ceiling. There was a distinct lack of plug sockets in the room with there only being a double socket behind the TV, which did have both USB & USB c sockets, and a single socket in a corner near the ceiling. There was an extension lead installed behind the dressing table. Amenities provided: Hair dryer Iron & ironing board Empty Mini fridge Tea & coffee making facilities. Shower gel & shampoo Shower cap Grooming kit, with cotton wool buds, cotton pads and a nail file. Breakfast was lovely, hot food, for a full Irish, pastries, cereal, and even a selection of items off a menu. Over all the staff where polite and friendly. Unfortunately we did not get to use the pool, spa or gym facilities this time. Recommendations for the hotel: 1) install more plug sockets near the TV/ dressing table and near the bed. 2) Ditch the 13 amp extension lead. You provide 3 x 13 amp appliances and only an extension lead to plug into, if someone uses all three at once it could cause a the lead to over heat and start a fire. (Chances of someone using all three at once is slim, but why risk it?) 3) Leadership team should conduct room quality inspections to check for signs of wear and age. Doesn't have to be after every check out but periodically checking to ensure your rooms maintain a satisfactory level of appearance. 4) Better signage for the underground parking. All in all I would stay again, maybe just book a better room next time, for the air con 😅

Comfortable rooms and great sevice Really enjoyed our group stay. Lovely rooms and great service on check in and check out. Peggy was so helpful and efficient. Tommy was very welcoming at breakfast. Bar staff were stretched and struggled to keep a full bar served.

Cannot fault our stay. Excellent hotel Beautiful hotel, friendly and welcoming staff, particularly Eileen on reception and the breakfast manager. Family room had everything we needed, comfortable beds, air conditioning, plenty of pillows. Excellent buffet breakfast with loads of choice. Lively friendly bar and staff. Great parking. Would have loved to stay longer.

Salthill Hotel Attended this hotel for my nephews wedding. Had an absolutely amazing experience, hotel is spotless and the decor is beautiful. Location is 5 star, as are the staff, the most helpful and friendly I have ever met. Would highly recommend 5 🌟 plus

Wedding Celebration The Salthill Hotel is first class when it comes to celebrating a wedding. We had a very special day for our daughter's wedding. The Wedding coordinator, management team and all the staff were so nice. They all helped to make the day very happy and memorable. Thank You.

Family holiday The hotel is fab lovely walk into the city or bus just outside the entrance if suits better. The rooms are lovely we were a family that needed 2 rooms and were accommodated with side by side rooms.
The food in the bar was fantastic on each of our nights, tiny bit slow but well worth the wait, breakfast also great with a lovely variety. Well worth a visit

Family Friendly Hotel Family of four 2 adults and 2 toddler found salthill hotel excellent.Location is perfect its walking distance to all the amenities. But if you have a toddler under 3 bring a buggie. Hotel was very clean and the staff very helpful. We went to the pool and loved the fact there was a baby pool and 2 pools one for swimming and one for general use. We ate in the hotel bar and the food was class the staff was amazing got colouring sets for the kids. Our room was spacious we stayed 8n a family room and it was perfect for the four of us. Overall we had an excellent experience in the salthill hotel we definitely will be back.

Great stay Lovely hotel in a lovely location. Very helpful staff to accommodate a big crowd of us wanting to eat - they were happy for us to move a couple of tables. We were there for a wedding which was beautiful

Great Galway Bay location Perfectly located, this beauty of a hotel offers anything you could ask for. You definitely get the value for the spend. Easily walkable for restaurants, sites and pubs. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Rooms are more than comfortable with great views of the Bay. The bathroom is phenomenal, and the shower has great water pressure. This was my second stay there, and I will definitely return!

Two wonderful stays in the Salthill Hotel My wife and I had a 3-night stay in the Salthill Hotel during the Galway Comedy festival. We had chosen room only stay because we knew we would be in town all day each day visiting friends and our son who is in University of Galway. As below, it was our second time staying in the hotel this year and it was "top notch" again. While we had plenty of rain during our stay, we still got to do long walks on the prom and into town: when it was too wet there are a couple of bus stops close by which bring your straight into town with the result that we left the car parked up in the hotel car park for the entirety of our stay.

In July 2025, we had stayed in the Salthill hotel for 4 nights as a family of 6 plus my wife’s parents had joined us. It was my fifth time staying in the hotel but a first for everyone else. We were hosting a lunch on one of the days for a family group of 22. The weather was beautiful with a pleasant breeze most days, and to be fair having no rain was such a bonus for a stay in Galway. Having the prom and beaches across the road is such a cool part of the hotel's facilities. Our stay was excellent throughout: the rooms were spacious and really comfortable and some of us used the leisure centre every day that we were there. Food was very good, and we had breakfast in the hotel each morning. Staff were excellent and looked after us and our guests with a lovely atmosphere and old school hospitality and efficiency.

Wedding weekend! Staff at the Salthill hotel are wonderful. I could not fault any of them. Shane (senior staff, wedding) looked after us very attentively and nothing was a bother to him. I’ve attended plenty of weddings over the past couple of years but the staff here really stand out. They certainly set the standard and would be one reason for me to choose the Salthill hotel for my own wedding one day!

Everything that we could have wished for. We enjoyed a very pleasing stay in this hotel. There is nothing to fault. Our bedroom was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The staff (certainly those that we encountered) were courteous and attentive. We had our evening meal from the bar food menu and the options were plentiful and delicious. The choices at breakfast were wide ranging and it would have been almost impossible to leave the hotel hungry.

A shout out in particular to the Reception staff.

Lovely carvery

Delicious Gluten-Free Fish & Chips at The Salthill Hotel in the Blackrock Bar I had an evening meal at The Salthill Hotel on Saturday evening and was really impressed. I ordered the gluten-free fish and chips, which were absolutely beautiful, perfectly cooked, crisp and light batter and wonderfully fresh fish. It was served with a lovely tartare sauce, fresh delicate side salad, chips, mushy peas and all of it combined really lifted the whole dish. Some good options for non-alcoholic wines and beers also.

It’s such a pleasure to find somewhere that takes care with quality gluten-free options and delivers food that’s both tasty and thoughtfully presented. The setting was calm and welcoming, with great service and a relaxed atmosphere, which was exactly what was needed for a leisurely evening meal at the seaside venue after a hard day's work.

A genuinely delicious meal and a place I’ll definitely be returning to. I highly recommend for anyone looking for quality, fresh food in Salthill.

Lovely People Check in was busy so we give extra credit to the friendly and patient way we were dealt with. The room was above standard in terms of size and had a lovely view of Galway Bay. A complimentary tray of treats left in our room and personalised to congratulate us on our wedding anniversary was a lovely surprise. The team at the Salthill Hotel made us feel very special. This a remarkable achievement in such a busy hotel. The Prom restaurant was very convenient and their two course deal was very tasty and great value. The excellent service continued at breakfast. Lovely people working at the Salthill Hotel.
