Disliked: Amenities
The front desk guy when checking in I asked is our room an updated room and a good room? And he said yes it’s a great room you’re on the 2nd floor! (There’s only 2 floors) we get to our room and it’s the farthest walk possible, it was outdated and found a ball of human hair in our towel in the bathroom. When I walked past other rooms on the way to our room whose doors were opened they were the updated/renovated room so he straight up lied to my face. I still am giving 3 stars because the people working at the breakfast were very kind and helpful.

This was a lovely hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We used this as a base to explore and it was very easy to get around from here. We also walked to downtown several times, so it is totally doable if you don't want to pay for a taxi. The breakfast was great. The restaurant was also pretty good. Overall, we really enjoyed staying here.

Great hotel for the price. The check in staff were super friendly the day we arrived and dropped our bags. The hotel is a little older and under renovations. The rooms were spacious and the bathroom was nicely updated. The bedrooms have carpet which is a little outdated but overly great location and price. Close to city centre where all the pubs etc are.

After traveling through the UK and around Ireland for nearly 3 weeks, I found Menlo Park Hotel to be the finest accommodation of the many hotels I visited in three countries. The other hotels were nice, but the Menlo Park Hotel is really a big cut above the rest. The staff is Excellent, friendly, helpful and extremely professional. The room was just the Very best: large, comfortable, an exquisite bath with both tub and separate shower. There were chocolates on the bed upon arrival. The breakfast is a delicious brunch-like buffet. Dinner at the restaurant was also top notch. I would go back to Galway just to stay at the Menlo Park Hotel.
