Hillview B&B

What guests think

Across these reviews, Hillview B&B is praised for consistently delicious cooked breakfasts, clean and cozy rooms, and a setting just outside Galway that suits drivers but can bring occasional traffic noise alongside some smaller, more compact bathrooms.

Multiple guests highlight Maureen's kindness and practical help, from warm welcomes to arranging alternatives or rides. While many appreciate the convenient drive into town, a few note heavy morning traffic, limited public transport, and that the entrance can be tricky to locate. Best suited to travellers seeking a homely B&B base near Galway with easy road access.

Nice b&b outside of Galway. Maureen was a friendly host. Good place to lay your head if spending a day in Galway and want a clean and quiet place that is reasonably priced.

This was my very first b&b! As soon as my boyfriend and I walked in the arroma was so cozy and inviting, just like my grandmother's home! The owner Maureen greeted us with such a warm Irish welcome. Our bedroom and bathroom was so quant and super tidy. Morning breakfast was spot on delicious! I'll never forget her fresh Irish soda bread. Thank you so much Maureen we will sure visit you again soon!

Our hostess Maureen was just lovely. It was at the top of our list of places we stayed in Ireland. Home is clean and inviting. Beds are amazing and you can heat them too. We stayed for 2 nights and very comfortable and cozy. Maureen in also a good cook, we enjoyed our breakfast very much. This is a great place to stay and the next time I am in Ireland I will book here

Lovely b&b, Maureen made you feel very welcome. The room/bathroom was a little small but I wasn’t there to spend time in the room. It’s a short drive from town with plenty of restaurants.

Expedia screwed up, she has been closed since January due to her husband being ill and they never canceled us or let us know. Miss Maureen was so sweet and made calls to make sure we had a place to stay since everywhere was booked (it’s busy season) one of her friends had space for us and made sure we were well taken care of!

Like most Irish properties, there is no street number, a bit hard to find. Someone suggested input post code in GPS, may work better. This place was on the Wild Atlantic Way - the other side of Moneymore Road ! Most friendly hostess who served up a substantial breakfast. Book a bigger ground floor room is you are staying more than 1 night !
