Hotel Meyrick’s location is often the backdrop for many key festival highlights that take place in the area such as Galway Oyster Festival, Baboró Arts Festival, Food on the Edge, and the Vodafone Comedy Carnival.

The historic hotel was built in 1852 to cater for Victorian travelers; now it's a gathering spot for locals and visitors alike. The hotel offers a range of dining options to choose from.

10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Beautiful hotel with spacious and elegant rooms at the center and heart of Galway, only a 1 minute walk to the train station and a 3 minute walk to the Latin quarter. The hotel is in a beautiful stone turn of the century building that has been updated with all modern amenities. The rooms make you feel like you're staying in a palace.
