The staff were excellent and extremely accommodating. On the other hand- the hotel itself is tired, old, outdated and dirty.
To make matters worse, there was a huge horse race (which I wasn’t aware of) and guests there were out of control. As I was walking into the lobby with my family to return to our room, a large fist fight breaks out in the lobby where a bloodied combatant is thrown out the front door. My kids thought it was cool, but I’m too old for that nonsense. My advice is before you book, ask the hotel if there are any large scale events they are hosting.

Fabulous experience on a very busy day and night for the hotel.
Quick check-in, super large room with comfortable bed and pillows, abundant towels and supplies for tea and coffee making.
Dinner in the restaurant was good and reasonably priced
Check-out easy and quick
A special thanks to the drivers of the shuttle buses to the races, they were friendly and very very kind people.
Well done the Clayton Hotel!!!

The room and property was exceptionally clean.
Janet
The room was very clean and they had air conditioning which was perfect during the summer. They have a great restaurant in the hotel in case you don’t want to drive into town which is about 15 minutes away. Staff is very polite and they have under ground parking which was perfect.
Christy
Very welcoming reception by Louise. Hotel was clean with easy access parking.
Jonathan
Stayed here as a family of 4. Room was huge with big windows. Great air conditioning too! Plenty of free parking. Also nice to have free use of the Pool. Its nice to have a dip whilst o na road trip around Ireland! Good Steam room and sauna too. You do need to wear a hat in the pool, which they sell for €3.50 each, so maybe buy a cheap set online before you go, but otherwise very good.
Didn't eat here. Bar was ok though but the glasses were quite dirty on all the drinks. Its right on the edge of Galway city if you are looking to visit the centre. There is a shopping centre and places to eat next door though.
Could do with a bit of a refurb in the room but if you get a good rate, I would recomend staying here still.

Nice large family room although hadn’t had a good clean in a while. Lots of dust in the corners by the windows. Shower was awkward as bathroom was large but shower small
Michelle
The hotel was centrally located, plenty of basement parking. Breakfast was great with plenty of options to choose from. Thank goodness there was air conditioning as the temps went above 26*C and other hotels had none. I would stay here again!
Gerry
Good job everyone keep up the good work
Phillip
My fault not checking how far it is from the city centre. Too far away. We arrived v early from The Clayton Cork at 12:45 not expecting to check in but hopeful of 14:00-14:30 but told no chance before 15:45. We were left until that time to check in. You can’t tell me that all the rooms become available at once. Desk staff not helpful at all.
When we got back in the afternoon the bed hadn’t been made and no towel change as we left them in the bath as no heated towel rail. Phoned reception for towels at 16:00 and nothing an hour later but luckily the store room was open so I got two from there. By the time we went out at 6pm still no towels. I told reception and when we got back later the towels had been replaced but the bed hadn’t been made. Disappointing service.
The bathroom fan was filthy and the seal on the shower screen. The bathroom fan didn’t work at all

Great location, near shopping centers and bus stops, with a short ride going to Eyre Square.
The rooms are decent. The first one we got for our family of four (2 adults and 2 teens) was a huge corner room with floor to ceiling windows, some of which were cracked. Since there were two openable windows in the room, we were able to get the air to circulate a bit.
Wi-Fi in that part of the hotel was an issue. It continuously dropped service after a couple of minutes, so our room was changed to the side I believe is mostly reserved for convention folks. We had a balcony with two doors,
allowing for plenty of fresh air and air circulation. It was a bit nicer than the other room we had been in. And the Wi-Fi was great.
No real complaints since our problem was resolved with the Wi-Fi situation. I would recommend more window options to allow for air circulation.

Had a great room and the breakfast was great. Somehow I lost my fairly expensive earbuds there either in the room or the restaurant. 😞 Other than that, very nice stay.
Charmaine
Rooms clean all staff very helpful especially the young girl at reception with glasses didn't get her name lovely very helpful girl breakfast was beautiful all in all a very good clean hotel would highly recommend
Jean
Breakfast was excellent! Bar area had great food and drinks while we watched the World Cup games. Lovely staff and quiet rooms… great base to tour from
Randall
Check in was slow. The people in front of me seemed to have big problems. A guy kept coming out from the back and talking to the front desk staff and preventing them from moving the people through. When I got to the counter, my check in took about 2 minutes. They probably need a separate line for normal people. After we got the room, everything went very well. The room was awesome. The only drawback was the TV. A guy worked on it for an hour and then said our box wasn’t working and he didn’t have any spares.

Pool wasn't as expected and no warning about mandatory swim caps.
Aidan
Good clean room ,super good breakfast bar was ok staff forgot order came after 15 minutes
Vishal
Hotel upgraded us to a corner view room on level 3, worth every penny! The only issue is with the faucet water force in bathroom- spills outside of sink basin. Also the shower water temp takes few minutes to change temperature.
Excellent overall stay!!

The hotel has a beautiful lobby and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The common areas made a great first impression, and the service we received was good.
Unfortunately, there were several issues with our room that significantly impacted our experience. The bathtub appeared to have a large yellow stain running down it, which looked unclean and was quite off-putting. The shower was also very difficult to use because the water temperature constantly fluctuated between extremely hot and very cold, making it uncomfortable to shower.
The biggest issue was a door stopper positioned immediately inside the room near the entrance. It seemed unnecessarily placed and was difficult to notice. I struck my toe on it very hard, causing it to bleed, and I am fairly certain it was broken as a result. This injury had a significant negative impact on the remaining two days of our trip to Ireland. I strongly recommend that the hotel either remove the door stopper or relocate it closer to the wall to prevent future guests from being injured.
While the lobby and staff were excellent, the room maintenance and safety concerns unfortunately detracted from what could have been a much better stay.

This is a modern hotel which looks good from the outside, but we found it seriously lacking in a number of areas. First, we stayed for three days, but our room was never cleaned at all. I thought it was an oversight after the first night, but the second night the housekeeping staff was again a \"no show.\" We told the front desk, and of course they profusely apologized. But cleaning a hotel room should be automatic each day! Two days in a row of neglect is serious. We also left our tray of used dishes in the hallway, and they stayed there all day.
We also found the restaurant to be significantly understaffed. Large groups were in the hotel while we were there, but the wait staff was minimally staffed at best. We waited a long time before even ordering. The food was OK, but again they should have been properly staffed for the amount of guests they had. Management was clearly not prepared for them.
One other item: I went down to check out the pool the first night, and it was closed for no apparent reason. All in all, this hotel was a big disapointment.

Mostly clean. Check in and check out was fast and smooth. Ample parking. Ran into poor service in the bistro restaurant, didn’t go back. Five day stay, room refreshed once.
Michele
This hotel was beautiful and clean and the staff could not have been nicer! I would stay there anytime!
Kimberly
Showers didn’t work well, fluctuated between hot and freezing every few seconds. Rooms weren’t cleaned when asked. Staff not responsive
Julie
We had a 2-day reservation at the Flannery and needed an additional day, but they wanted to charge an additional 50 Euros which was ludicrous. We made a reservation at the Clayton and wished we had stayed there the whole time. It was wonderful and, I think, her name was Lauren who checked up in should get a raise for all her help
Karen
Nice conference-style hotel. Clean, easy parking which was a big plus.
Nathan
We were throughly impressed by the Clayton hotel Galway. Free and abundant parking, easy check in and everything comfortable and available. Convenient location and great AC and strapping that made it comfy. We wish we stayed for longer than just a night. We will be back!
Judy
Spacious, clean room.
Jeff
Breakfast had poor choice of fresh fruit, no potatoes of any kind, cold scrambled eggs and no fried or poached eggs available.
The rooms bathtub had been painted to hide some sort of nasty stain, and the water was not hot enough for me. The carpet had a few odd stains. The hair dryer did not work.
I will not return.

The windows where broke the road outside was very noisy it was like the window was opened and it was too expensive for the type of hotel that had no entertainment in the hotel we were bored and heating and air condition was very very noisy when you are trying to sleep

Nice Hotel , clean and comfortable beds , however some of the plugs in the room didn’t work , plugs where lose fittings, heating kept turning off which left the room cold.
The food is excellent in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast , the staff are young and inexperienced, getting confused with orders and very slow !!

Shower was going from freezing cold to scalding hot . Staff not very friendly. Drink prices very high compared to similar hotels . €8.50 for pint bottle of Bulmers is ridiculous.

Their was an issue with the accommodation in hotel but staff were excellent in getting alternative accommodation sorted at this busy time of year. Our trip could have been a disaster but staff + hotel were very responsive in find a solution for unforseen issues in hotel.
Lisa
First room we went to, single bed was broken and smeared poo on outside of the toilet bowl. Second room had main bed was at a slant so husband found it very uncomfortable. Broken tile on the bathroom floor with sharp edge. Daughter hurt her foot.
People in neighbour room locked their kids out of room and let them scream and play out in the hall until 11pm. Disturbing our daughter who was sleeping. Banging walls and being very disruptive.

No air conditioning and it was advertised, no fridge in room , dirty sheets blankets , bathrooms dirty, loose tiles in bathroom , very dusty room housekeeping came into our room numerous times without asking open door .. food was terrible.
Sophia
Nice hotel for a great price not far from the centre of Galway.
John
It was an average stay, me and my husband booked for our anniversary, room was either red hot or freezing cold, room could of done with a little updating, if you need silence to sleep, then this isn’t for you, you can hear cars all night long, tv was hit and miss weather it worked. It was clean though. Staff on reception was very helpful when we arrived to get us in a room early. The staff in the bar/cafe was quite slow but friendly. There was a wedding on the Saturday so hotel was took over as didn’t want to use the gym or pool as we didn’t want to walk through them. Wish we had known there was a wedding when booking. No charges for parking though which was a bonus
Mark
Very nice hotel and staff the only thing I can complain about is the road noise from the room and I couldn't lock the big window to close it in no handle but everything else was very nice still enjoyed our stay thank you
alice
Great property and lots of parking. The facility was great. We had a huge room. Only drawback was the distance to central Galway. It was about 10 miles away from downtown. The person who checked us in was able to tell us what bus to take (which picks you up liberally right outside the hotel) and that was an easy ride but the traffic was heavy so it took 40 min to go down at rush hour but about 15 min return on the bus later after rush hour had passed.
Charles
Convenient and well located away from the jam city center
sandra
Nice large rooms. No locks on balcony door. We were told Galway has no crime. Not sure about that! Front desk needs to be contacted to turn on heat in room. Nothing in the room to indicate that. Can catch the bus into town right by the hotel. Breakfast very good!

I stayed here on two separate occasions when I was in Galway for work. On the first occasion staff were friendly in the main but the food was not good. While the portion of fish was quite big, the batter was soggy and the portion of chips was insufficient in comparison. The breakfast was very dry. On the second occasion, the room carpet was very badly stained. I was given a different room which I appreciated, but the mugs were chipped, the grouting on the bathroom floor was missing in parts and badly repaired in others. I again asked for my meal on a tray, to take to my room, but had an aluminium take-away box plonked in front of me, with no cutlery or anything else. I had to ask for a plate, cutlery and a tray, which I duly got but the tray had a lot of detritis on it. Mark and Angelina were great, very helpful and sympathetic, offering to address the issues. Breakfast was better on this occasion, but overall the experience was grim, and I won't be back. This was not a 4* service, it really needs to up its game to be anywhere near the Dublin Clayton. One other thing, I had left something behind on the first occasion, the website does not provide the direct dial number for their hotels, I had to use a generic email and a chat bot, the issue was not resolved in this way. I got the direct dial number from the email confirming my second booking and Angelina did resolve the issue and found my item, which was much appreciated.
Susan
I would highly recommend Hotel Clayton. The staff were very helpful and responded to every request that we made, such as arranging for a taxi. Dining in the evening was not only convenient but the food and the service was exceptional.
The room was lovely and we enjoyed quiet respite at the end of the day.
