My stay at The G Hotel was a mix of highs and lows. While the upgrade to a luxury room was a good treat, I faced several disappointing issues with the cleanliness and service. The dining experience, although promising in variety, left much to be desired due to slow service and disorganization.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at The G Hotel & Spa. While the location was perfect for exploring Galway, just a 10-minute walk from the city center, I found the dining options quite disappointing and not up to the standards I expected from a luxury hotel. The staff were friendly and accommodating, but I encountered some delays during check-in and felt that the service in the restaurant could be improved. Overall, my experience was average, with some standout moments and some letdowns. 🌟🤷‍♀️

I had high expectations for my stay at The G Hotel & Spa, especially given its 5-star status. While the spa treatments were really good and the staff generally friendly, many aspects of the hotel felt underwhelming and in need of renovation. The dining experience was mediocre at best, with long wait times and limited menu options. Overall, I enjoyed certain elements, but felt it failed to deliver a true luxury experience.

Rooms

6.0

The room was nice and clean, but some decor felt worn and it had a very small TV. Unfortunately, the view was less than impressive and I expected more from a supposed 5-star venue.

Service

Service at the reception was quite basic, and there were times when I felt ignored during my meals. While the staff were generally friendly, the level of attentiveness fell short of what I anticipated for a luxury hotel.

Location

The hotel is located in a retail park, which isn't the most convenient for those wanting to explore the city. It felt somewhat inconvenient since I had to rely on taxis to get anywhere.

Dining

Dining options were limited and the food didn't impress. Breakfast was particularly disappointing, with cold dishes and slow service that didn't meet my expectations for a hotel of this caliber.

Facilities

6.0

The spa was a highlight, but the thermal suite comes with an extra charge, which seemed unwarranted. Furthermore, the overall facilities lacked the level of polish I expected.

The staff were friendly, adding to the charm and making it ideal for a romantic getaway. 🍽️✨

My stay at The G Hotel was a mixed bag. While the decor is quirky and the staff were friendly and helpful, the service and facilities fell short of my expectations for a luxury hotel. I had some decent meals, but overall, a few key issues made my experience less enjoyable than I'd hoped.

Rooms

I booked a Luxury Room Super King, which was spacious and clean. However, the view was disappointing, overlooking a carpark rather than something picturesque. The heating didn’t seem to work well, making the room chilly for the night.

Service

5.0

Service during my stay was far from ideal. I waited over an hour for dinner, and breakfast was delayed with the wrong order delivered. The bar staff were friendly but seemed inexperienced, unable to recommend items from the menu. It felt like the hotel was understaffed.

Location

7.0

The hotel is conveniently located, just a short stroll into Galway city, though it's a bit of a trek for some. I liked that it was close to Eyre square and offered easy access to the city’s vibe.

Dining

5.0

I enjoyed the food at the restaurant, but some meals were limited in availability and didn't quite meet expectations for a five-star hotel. Breakfast options felt basic and not worth the high prices.

Facilities

5.0

I was disappointed by the thermal suite, as some facilities were out of order. I had expected more options based on the description. Also, I felt it was unfair to charge for access to the pool.
