The absolute highlight of a one week vacation in Ireland. I stayed here for 2 nights back in 2017 and am just getting around to writing a review, but it was just that memorable! Sylvia and the man who worked here (I'm so sorry I didn't save your name!) were absolutely lovely and helpful recommending various places to visit in Galway. The man also cooked wonderful breakfasts every morning. The room itself was very clean and nice. I had the room at the top where they also filmed the Ed Sheeran MV for Galway Girl. It was so cute, clean, and cozy and the opening for the balcony is such a fantastic view. The only downside was the light that would come through the hallway at night, so if you're sensitive to light like I am, make sure you bring an eye mask!
My friends and I spent 2 nights in this wonderful acommodation. It is very cleverly designed and the house has such beautiful character. It is very spacious and each floor has its own bathroom. It is set in an ideal location being right in city centre just looking out at Claddagh. It is in pristine condition and covid regulations are adhered to which is great to see. I would highly recommend Heron's Rest.
Having stayed in Galway many times, I finally found the perfect location! We adored being right on the waterfront in the heart of the city. An oasis of calm around the corner from the bustling heart of the city. We had a baby and appreciated the ease of access to the main thoroughfare (under 5 min walk), as well as the fact we could nip home for a quick power nap with ease(!) Galway is such a city for walking, it really pays off to be located near the epicentre we found. Everything was only a stroll away. The rooms are well appointed, all with fantastic waterfront views and extremely comfy beds. The house was spotless throughout. We wanted for nothing during our stay and found the owner, who checked us in, extremely solicitous to our needs. We will let you be surprised by the extra thoughtful touches and not describe them! :)…
We had a wonderful family break at Herons Rest. The house has fantastic view and couldn’t be in a better location for Galway city. It was spotlessly clean and was extremely well equipped. We look forward to returning again soon.
Out of the way yet 3 minutes to center of Galway great for our family of 5! we were able to make some meals and have a refrigerator for drinks etc great views and very quiet perfect for families we liked all being under one roof
