We stayed here for two nights over the weekend, hunting with the Galway Blazers - the meet was at the hotel last Saturday. Never been to Galway before so I was a tad disappointed to find our room overlooking the car park till we woke up the next morning and saw the Loch! Beautiful view although the weather was Irish...

We had our wedding in this hotel on New Years Eve 2011 and it was fantastic. From the moment we booked our wedding with the hotel we were impressed with the professionalism and friendliness approach of the staff. Any extra requests we asked outside of the wedding package were catered for without hesitation. On the wedding day at the hotel,... More

Staff were friendly and helpful, the food was nice both at the breakfast buffet where there was a good choice, and in the restaurant. We also used the spa... More

We have stayed at the Loughrea Hotel and Spa on 3 occasions over the past few years, the last being in early September 2011 for a birthday treat. The hotel is lovely, the rooms are beautifully decorated, modern and comfortable. All staff were extremely pleasant and helpful. The food in the bar has always been exceptional and well-priced.
