I loved the very warm welcome I received upon arrival. Myself and my partner went for dinner in the restaurant and we couldn't beat the waiting staff from the table (in the best way possible), we wanted for nothing, the service was impeccable and they were extremely attentive and professional. Absolutely top tier staff and service! The location was very convenient, a shopping complex not even a 5 minute walk from the hotel, its a 10 minute taxi ride from the city centre, so you get the closeness to the centre without the noise at night (very peaceful location).
Located in its own private grounds, this 4-star hotel offers spacious, elegant rooms. It is only 20 minutes’ walk from Galway’s centre and 5 minutes' walk from the nearest shopping centre.
The Galmont Hotel & Spa overlooks Galway Bay and is just 200 metres from Eyre Square. It has an award-winning restaurant, Spirit One Spa and Energize fitness and leisure.

The castle was lovely and the heritage center was a lot of fun and very informative, there are some lovely restaurants, we ate in the old barracks food was delicious and we got some lovely cakes to take away. We stayed in the Raheen woods which is a very family friendly hotel. Athenry has a train station and is only a fifteen minutes trip to Galway city

I loved everything about the place only thing that needs looking at is the bar menu
I had the chicken burger I asked was the chicken fresh
I was so looking forward to fresh chicken breast burger
Especially for the price I would expect fresh not frozen

The heritage centre is worth a visit. For 5 euro you get to go on a tour and learn lots of the history of Athenry in a fun and interesting way ,you get to wear costumes and you get to do archery and a maze. Such a lovely experience. There's also a castle and an Abbey to visit . Great playground for children.
The food in the restaurants and pubs was just gorgeous. The people were friendly and nice.
Definitely will return again.

Athenry was a wonderful little town to visit.
Athenry was a wonderful little town to visit. Great to get a feel for authentic, non-touristic Irish culture. The town boasts a castle, a friary ruin, an old stone gate, so many gems to visit! Then the nightlife was very fun. Great pubs and music made for one our favorite stops during our 10 day trip to Ireland
Wanted a spot near Shannon airport to make for an easy travel day (50 minutes by car). Rooms are small but lots of storage. Facility has a nice outdoor space for drinks or food that is private but there is smoking allowed there so you never know what you'll get. Their parking lot is also enclosed in that spot so easy to get to. There are not a lot of restaurants in Athenry and the food served here was really quite good and that's a top option for you. Breakfast was very good and included.
The staff were very friendly and attentive. They also seemed to enjoy working there, nice to see that staff are taken care of. We were upgraded to a suite on arrival and our room was beautiful, quiet and had a balcony. Leisure Centre was lovely and spa was great! 10/10 and great value. Athenry is a lovely quiet spot about 30 minutes away from Galway City. The bar staff especially Eileen were great banter throughout our stay. We'll be back.
Everything was perfect. Room lovely and comfortable. Bed and pillows superb! Magnificent breakfast and such pleasant, helpful staff BUT only thing was the person/people above us were so noisy :( Not a fault of the hotel or its lovely surroundings but took us ages to drop off. HOWEVER, little impact on our lovely stay. Thank you very much New Park. We'll be back :)
This hotel is a gem! Alacoque (the owner) is absolutely lovely. So friendly and chatty. She gave us great information about Athenry and we really enjoyed doing the heritage trail that she recommended. The cooked breakfast was fantastic! Love the outdoor dining area too. Highly recommend this hotel and Athenry is a lovely town full of history. Shouldn’t be missed.
We had a very warm welcome from the owner. The staff were terrific, very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable, easy for us to explore Athenry, and take the train to Galway. Breakfast and dinner at the restaurant were excellent, and the chocolate marshmallow treat exceptional. Some special treats were left in the room for us to enjoy too, nice touch.
Breakie was average. Location and hotel was cute and lovely but the thing that lets the hotel down is the rooms are too thin and you can hear every small movement. And it’s just normal movement so this makes sleep very challenging. It’s a shame as staff are exceptional and I love the rooms coming into the hotel .
Dinner in the restaurant was superb. Room was comfortable and breakfast was ok but selection was limited after 9.30am. We used the pool most days. Kids area a nice hotel addition. Great value for money. Kids activities was a nice touch.
One bedroom flat was just beautiful. Super comfortable pull out couch in the living room was perfect for our daughter. Place is absolutely spotless and very well appointed. Will stay here again if ever back in Athenry.
The town is quiet and away from too many tourists, yet close enough to Galway and a great stopping point to see a lovely town. The breakfast was beyond amazing! Friendly staff. Hope to stay there again!
On our arrilval onsunday at 2 00 pm. the recptioness told us are rooms were ready . Well done, we had dinner watching the match and still walked into Athenry for some sightseeing. excellent
