Stayed a few nights, great breakfast, friendly and helpful staff. A 2 minute walk to the town centre were there are good pubs and good food. The room was comfy with wooden floors so can get a bit noisy at times but others great. Loads of pictures/decor all over the house as well for you to look at 'maybe a... More

The Forge is in a great location in Galway. The service was good but just not your over the top Irish hospitality that we experienced in other B&Bs. The house is clean but the owner was hardly there and seemed to pop in to let guests in to their rooms and cook breakfast and then wasn't around. Good location, okay... More

The Forge House B&b is in a fantastic position! To get there by car you don't have to go through the city center traffic, then you can leave you car in the free parking (it's beside the building, in front of the recording studio) and just walk to arrive in the center of Galway in five minutes. We've really appreciated... More

Deloris and Bernard are great hosts. They are very friendly and more than willing to help make the best of your stay in Galway. Deloris set up a bus tour for my boyfriend and I to visit the cliffs. She cooked a delicious breakfast for us every morning and was accommodating to my vegetarian diet. The room we stayed in... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for three nights and were very warmly welcomed by Dolores and her family. The breakfasts were great and Dolores went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable. The place has lots of charm and character which makes it feel like a real Irish family home. The room was clean and tidy and... More

My wife and I stayed at The Forge B&B for 7 days in January 2011. We were very pleased with the wonderful hospitality given by Delores and her family!

Dolores was very friendly and welcoming when we arrived. Our room was nicely decorated and clean if a little cold. Our shower wouldn't go in the morning until the shower in the next room stopped and the house was not very soundproof. However, the location was very handy and free off-street parking a great bonus. The reason I wouldn't go... More

This is a great B&B and very close to all the central bars, shopping streets and Galway bay. The rooms are very clean and have en suite bathrooms, TV and Wifi is available free. The full Irish breakfast is enormous and delicious. Dolores and Bernard give everyone a very warm welcome. I would recommend this B&B for a short stay.... More

The Forge House is a very nice B&B. I went there with my girlfriend and we got a very large and clean(!) room. The hosts are very friendly and they even made an effort to bring back much money to me which I forgot at their B&B. The location is also very good, because you only have a 5 min... More

We had a very nice stay at this b&b in the centre of Galway which is the best city we visited in Ireland. Dolores is a very friendly host and we payed just 130 euro for a twin room for 2 nights with parking for our car. It's just a 5 min. walk to the city centre. The room was... More
