Where To Stay:

Galway is a super walkable and safe city, so really you can't really go wrong with anything in walking distance of city center! If you have a car, there are also nearby alternatives if you'd like a quieter stay and prefer to drive into town.

-City Center: The most convenient spot to get around town, the city center is a great option if it's your first visit to Galway. Easy access to all the sights and eats!
