“Charming small quiet hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2008

Was on a 5 day business trip to Galway and stayed in the Anno Santo Hotel for 4 nights mid-week. Its about a 5 to 10 minute walking distance to Galway City Centre which is realistically out of walking distance however which is a shame, I would have liked to be closer to the city centre but its in a very quiet peaceful location close to the coast so it was a fair trade off especially on the morning one of my meetings was cancelled and I got to stay in bed all day...a rare thing for me! Not the most modern hotel, rooms where basic which suited me as I wasn’t planning on spending allot of my time in Galway confined to my room. My only criticism would be the small TV’s they have in the rooms, a slightly bigger one would have been nice. The atmosphere was very quiet, friendly and relaxed especially in the dining area and bar, which is small but cosy especially on a cold night which there were plenty of last week :(

The internet wireless access was a great service which I used a fair bit and well worth mentioning and a welcome change since you usually have to pay extra in most hotels for internet access but the best thing about this hotel was the service and staff, extremely friendly and helpful, nearly made it seem like a home away from home which is a rare thing these days I think.
All in all a very pleasant little hotel which just has that little bit of charm and warmth allot of others don’t – maybe it was the small TVs

“Ok, but quite disappointing for the price”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2008

Stayed in this hotel for a night when visiting Galway and the west of Ireland. For the price it was disappointing. The room was small, and wasn't exactly the cleanest. The tv and bathroom were tiny.

It's a long walk to the centre of Galway but in a nice residential area.

The parking is not really parking, there's about 5 or 6 spaces outside the hotel which clearly isn't enough or you can park on the main road.

If I was going to Galway again, I would stay in another hotel or a bed and breakfast for a lot less.

“really enjoyable experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2008

Loved the stay in Galway. What a location! Had a great trip with my partner, and have only great things to say about the hotel and staff. Rooms were spotlessly clean, and the bar is one of the cosiest hotel bars I've ever had the pleasure of drinking in... and above all else, they serve a great pint of Guinness.

  • Liked — The cosy bar and free wireless. Great

“spotlessly clean and a warm recepetion”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2008

The hotel I found was great, and to be able to sit outside and watch the world go by in the sunshine was so relaxing.

All the coffee and tea that you could drink was free all day. I do not think that I can remember being ever in a hotel that was so clean and tidy.

I managed to leave a folder in the taxi and they got it back for me. I had a blister on my foot and they sorted this out also, nothing was too much trouble.

This is not a boutique hotel with all modern or even high tech showers, but the rooms were comfortable the bathroom was adeqate but the most important thing about this hotel is the outstanding customer service and dedication of the staff.
