Maldron Hotel Sandy Road Galway

Lovely hotel, free parking and bus stop right outside to go into Galway city.

Everything was good. About a 20 min walk to downtown we’re all of the attractions are. Underground parking was great

Free and easy parking. Good location. Large comfortable rooms

Great location and very pleasant hotel. Only negative is that gym does not open until 9am so no use for a pre-breakfast workout. Supper in the restaurant was of a good standard and Staff all very friendly and helpful

Nice hotel, easy check-in, secure underground parking

Over all good. We did wait a long time for desert as a bus arrived for a meal, the restaurant was under staffed. Gym facilities very poor. Food was delicious and good portions. Room was good and staff extremely friendly. Would return.

We arrived early and front desk had our two rooms already ready! We checked in without issues, had free onsite parking, nothing to complain about as it was perfect use for our one night stay. Very secure hotel as well.

The room was very clean and spotless. The hotel staff were also great when we were checking in and out. This was the first place we didn’t have to pay for parking since arriving to Ireland. The hotel had onsite parking both around the building and under the building. There were lifts to accommodate those unable to use stairs. One downside was that we didn’t want the house keepers to clean the room while we were away as I’ve had things stolen in the past with that. They came in and cleaned even though we didn’t leave the sign on the door to refresh our room. Nothing was stolen or touched and they did do a good job cleaning up, but still would like my privacy to be protected.

Built over a petrol station, overlooking a major road no room service or restaurant after 2030 area around hotel isn’t nice, not worthy of carrying 4 stars

Lovely staff, mostly comfortable accommodations. Restaurant closes very early. Quick drive to Erye square about a 25min walk.

Staff left the door to our room ajar and unlocked after cleaning. When we came back to the room we found it unlocked.

Overall the room was spacious and the property well located. However, some basic things were missing, like room slippers, dental kits, moisturiser in bathrooms. These are all small things, but a must have in a 4 star hotel. If I have to rush to a store to get a brush and moisturiser, it ruins my experience. The bathroom was also not completely clean when we checked in.

I can only comment on the room I stayed in…. Spots of black mold on the shower walls and shower door tracks. I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone.

Hotel was lovely and exceptionally clean. Definitely the cleanest hotel i have stayed in. Room was lovely Breakfast staff were very friendly and helpful. Could not find any faults with the hotel i will Definitely stay here again . 5 stars

We stayed at this hotel for two nights. The hotel / rooms are exceptionally clean. You need a room key to access bedroom floors from the lift and also to gain access to hallways so it feels extra safe and stops people just wandering around! Great food, very central and rooms are very comfortable. Great short-term stay option, will definitely be staying here again!! 👍👍

The hotel is new and clean.

The room wasn’t ready we arrived. When we were able to get into our room there was an overpowering smell best described and someone dumping an entire bottle of cologne on the carpet. When we mentioned it we were told to try turning on the ac to circulate the air. This did not work. Hours later the smell was strong as ever an made it very difficult to sleep. The shower dripped at night as well. The nexf day upon check out we again mentioned the overpowering smell and were told it was antiseptic spray or possibly air fresher used by the cleaning staff. Simply said they would mention it. Would not stay again or recommend

Great overnight stay. Clean rooms. Friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

Items were covered in dust, sky lights and windows were filthy

Rooms were large and very well appointed. Nice towels. Breakfast was great. Easy 15 minute walk into town center or inexpensive taxi ride. Free protected parking. Very friendly staff. Was able to check in early.

Outside of town. On a busy street intersection. Room was spacious and clean.

Superior king and single room did not actually have a king size bed, more like a queen size.

Location is 25 mins walking from galway city , staff are nice but the cleaning service in the morning very noisy. The rooms need updating and very poor lightning. The rooms very noisy at night and I was not pleased with my stay.

Everything was great. Staff was amazing. Restaurant was very good and not overpriced. About 15 min walk to Eyre Square. One issue: NO storage in room other than closet. No drawers. If you a staying a few nights, be prepared to live out of your suitcase. Kudos to lovely, helpful staff.

Contant traffic noise.

The room was nicely sized, and had a very large tub. My only wish was that there was more light - I honestly thought that some lights needed replacing… no, the room was just that dark. I have a feeling the staff thought I was goofy for thinking a smoke alarm was a light fixture, but hey- maybe it’s a cultural difference in expectations of lighting in hotel rooms? :) Aside from the restaurant in the hotel, you have to walk 20 mins to the city center for food/activities. I knew this when I booked- I think it was worth the savings. Just be prepared to be next to a gas station- but it surprisingly had very tasty ice cream! Breakfast was a decent continental spread (bland eggs but fresh fruit salad, yogurt, and bread) I did wish that the homemade brown soda bread was available for more than just a few days out of my 2 weeks stay. Overall I think it was great value for the price, and would recommend it.

It was great having parking in the facility but our room’s a/c did not work so we had 2 sleepless nights

Area is a little out of the way but still close enough to walk to the square. Terrible shower, if you really like your showers like I do, don’t stay here. Seemed like I was showering at a campground. Beds were hard which is fine for me but not for my wife. Friendly and helpful staff.

Very comfortable bed and room.

Modern hotel outside the city center of Galway. Taxi's and Ubers were quick and easy but a little pricey, $30-$40 round trip, into the city center. Rooms are large and comfortable. Staff was friendly and helpful. This is a large, busy hotel and check-in line was long. Overall, I would recommend this hotel.

The hotel itself is fine. Nice building and decor. Kept clean. Beds comfy, rooms roomy. However for our 3 night stay our room was not serviced. Breakfast a disaster. 3 mornings we had breakfast the one and only coffee machine was out of service several times during breakfast. Either no milk in it or it was self cleaning. People queuing up waiting on the staff member to sort it out. Clearly not a suitable machine for the level of use it gets. Only one service staff member each morning trying to keep food replenished and help guests with queries and fetching items not out in the buffet. Food itself was only mediocre, not enough to go round, constantly had to wait for fresh hot eggs, sausages, bacon etc. I would recommend room only. Evening meals had a nice selection and the 3 meals we had were tasty. Even though more than one server on for evenings, they were still under pressure as not enough of them on. Again nobody senior to help out. The service staff throughout the hotel are very young, teenagers at most. All were extremely friendly and helpful, but always over worked and nobody senior to direct them or help them. On our checkout we were told we owed €30 as we had not paid the full amount on check in (which was paid for by card and cash) The person who checked us in was struggling to figure out how to process the cash and card and clearly got her calculations wrong. The young friendly overworked serving & bar staff are the saving grace for this hotel

The staff was excellent. Our room very quiet. The gentle man at the front desk during our stay was outstanding!

Staff left the door to our room ajar and unlocked after cleaning. When we came back to the room we found it unlocked.

The front desk and bar staff were extremely helpful and went out of their way to help both at arrival and departure. Would definitely stay again.

Outstanding service. Very friendly and helpful staff. Particularly Jordan, who went out of her way to help us plan the rest of our stay in Ireland.

Staff was friendly and helpful, accommodating early checkout with breakfast to-go.

Very nice spacious room. Restaurant food was really good with a veried menu. Very large portions. All the staff my daughter and I interacted with were friendly and helpful. Great location with a carpark. Highly recommend this hotel. Have stayed here previously and will definitely stay here again.

Great option. 20 minute walk from the centre of Galway.

Lovely hotel, free parking and bus stop right outside to go into Galway city.

was a lovely hotel and breakfast included with secure undergroung parking and only about 20 - 25 minutes to the heart of Galway walking.

Outside of town. On a busy street intersection. Room was spacious and clean.

Neat and clean 1 mile walk to city center

room is clean,but hotel is alittle bit far from town

Great location, within 15 min walking distance to the centre. Very clean, breakfast, and other dining available. Parking available, and close to major roads.

The staff were super friendly and paid much attention to our family (18 mo old daughter was with my wife and I). While not super close to the city center, it is a very safe and easy 20 min walk to all the bars and restaurants.

Terrible location. Next door to a gas station and minimart. Neighborhood was very busy and noisy. Room was quiet and comfortable, but we had upgraded to a Junior Suite. The restaurant staff were very friendly and patient. We would not stay here again.

While off a busy road, it's situated in an area that is walkable to a number of places. I don't mind the walk and it took 20 minutes to reach the city center and 30 minutes to walk to the north campus of Univ of Galway. The facilities are modern and tidy. The unexpected surprise was having a convenience store on the premise - cheaper prices for things than $20 euro breakfast.

Clean and comfortable room. The public dining area is quite tired and in need of renovation. Although I managed to have a Coeliac friendly dinner and breakfast I felt thee dinner options were very limitiled and not particularly healthy.

Clean. Nice comfortable beds. Pillows could be better. Breakfast and dinner were excellent. Easy access in and out of the city. Easy walk into town and nearby grocery for snacks.

Lovely staff. Easy parking. Rooms perfect Food excellent.

This primarily business hotel is a pretty solid offering. Underground parking, good security between this and the rooms, and a spacious restaurant for breakfast. Breakfast itself was again solid. Good quality food, competantly cooked and displayed. All staff were efficient and reasonably pleasant.

The staff are well-informed and friendly and the room was clean. Breakfast offer has to be improved and offer some variety. They had the same breakfast offer for the 5 days we were there.

Excellent restaurant- I had Breakfast and evening dinner. They are also good with making cocktails. Very welcoming staff . Safe underground parking I would definitely stay again

All good except no hot water from bathroom sink. Fried eggs were not available for breakfast.

Lovely staff, mostly comfortable accommodations. Restaurant closes very early. Quick drive to Erye square about a 25min walk.
