The Snug is a cute property, ideal for singles or couples who want to be near the Latin quarter. It's in a great location for what Galway has to offer.

The staff were friendly and always helpful. We had an issue with one room and they were happy to move us without any fuss.

Perfectly located! Everything was super clean. AC in rooms worked perfectly. The rooms are extremely small which we knew ahead of time but just in case for travelers deciding. It being so centrally located and clean and a decent price made it a perfect stay. It’s also right near all the bars and restaurants - like right on top of it so if you need quiet, maybe not for you. 10/10 would recommend to my friends.

Cute hotel with nice design. It's located on a very busy street with popular shops and pubs so expect some noise at night (though they do include earplugs in the room!) I don't mind the noise so I slept fine. Other than that I would caution any elderly folks or those with movement disabilities as the building is old and there are a lot of winding, often narrow stairs and halls to access the rooms. Overall, great stay and would recommend

The location is RIGHT in the heart of the Latin Quarter--directly across from the Galway Girl sculpture. If you're an early riser (and therefore an early to bed person), you might need to alter your sleeping plans on Friday and Saturday night! Galway is a fun town and the Snug is at its epicenter! But with the windows closed and the AC on, the room is rather quiet considering its location amid the revelry. Super clean, super helpful staff, and super snuggly!

Shower was downstairs which was not convenient. Emergency lighting was too bright at night. The worst was how loud the street noise from the pubs at night. It was very difficult to sleep. The inside stairs were quite steep. Very limited space for something called a duplex. No place to sit other than the beds. Beds were very cramped for 2 people sharing and beds were placed where you had to climb over one another.

Snug is an understatement. The room was small but also had no window.

Room was well-insulated from the noise and music of the area.

The location was amazing, and the concept and rooms themselves are cute and cozy. The blind on the window was terrible, and the room had a musty (wet) smell. There is no coffee machine (only instant coffee and a kettle) and there are no cups or wine glasses available. The door didn’t lock so was a little concerning and no safe. Comfy bed and the noise was not an issue at all, despite being right across from the Quay!

If you're a light sleeper or not taking part in the festivities it may not be ideal for you. Beyond that though, this place is a good choice - very central to just about everything in Galway.

They call the hotel \"snug\" and they're not joking. The room is so small that you have to go outside to change your room. The bed was tugged in among three walls, with a shelf right next to it. The bed was kinda lumpy and very hard to get out, and you have to crawl on top of the person next to you to go to bathroom at night. There's no place to move around. However, the room was clean, the staff was nice, great location in the middle of the city center. But I think this is the room for one person. They do have bigger rooms and we probably do that if we ever go back.

This hotel is located right I. The middle of Quay street close to all the activities. In fact it’s directly across from the Quays Bar which is convenient but also noisy. The bar opens late so the noise doesn’t come down until after 2 AM. Our room faces the street and we had to use the provided ear plugs. Other rooms not on the Quay street may be quieter. Our room was simple but was clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly too. Would stay again and ask for a quieter room.
