Very comfortable and relaxing stay

Hotel was lovely - front desk was very welcoming, and the lobby has loads of sofas to wait while meeting up with others. Beds were comfortable and rooms spacious. Ours looked out towards the sea (though the car park is immediately outside) and must be even nicer on a summer day. My son's room overlooked a small but pretty park. The main pool was great for doing lengths and the smaller pool was great for messing around. Sauna very hot, steam room good and jacuzzi was huge (but was needed as the health club is busy). Breakfast was good quality and decent variety. Food in the restaurant/bar was good, but by 8pm, they had already run out of the two main meals we had wanted, which I wouldn't have expected in a hotel this size. Pints of Guinness were really great, but they didn't have all the beers listed on the menu.

Great location. We selected this site to be out of Galway City, but near, and for the views of Galway Bay. It was perfect. The pub was great to watch the rugby matches and for food/drink.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
The lobby, bar and restaurants were quite nice, and the main portion of the hotel looked nice enough. But the room we were assigned was tiny, cramped, poorly appointed, and had to be accessed by what looked like a service elevator hidden off to the side of the lobby. The desk clerk made disparaging remarks about my having booked through Expedia.

Too expensive for the shortcomings of the hotel

Salthill Hotel sits right on the coast in Galway, a beautiful and great location. When we arrived, we were told that Hotels.com customers had to pay for parking, which was only €5, not too bad but a little annoying to be siloed because of where the booking originated. We had three issues with our room. The first is that the room was far too hot, and there was no temperature control in the room. The window only opened a tiny slit, so there was virtually no air circulation and no way to make the room cooler. For a woman in menopause, this is an absolute disaster. The bathroom didn't have a working exhaust fan either, so it fogged up and stayed that way. Once we showered, the bathroom was unusable for make-up or anything else because of the lack of ventilation. When I went to blow dry my hair, the socket was located about 15 feet away from the only mirror, so I wasn't able to see what I was doing when drying my hair. Not sure why they didn't put a mirror near the socket? The next morning, we had to leave rather early. We went to the lobby for breakfast and were told breakfast wasn't available until 8am on Sundays. So we went back upstairs to pack up and get on the road. When we came back downstairs, the breakfast area was open at 7:30! But we had already brushed teeth etc, so we just left. For €230/night, the whole experience didn't sit well.
