Guest reviews
Wards Hotel averages 4.2 out of 5 across 310 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
Very nice, very modest hotel within walking distance of the Galway city center. The attached bar is cozy and welcoming, and the room has everything you need.
I always like the atmosphere in Wards Pub. A nice mix of people. A good selection of drinks too. Barstaff are always on the ball. Great on a sunny day.
