The Light House
The 3-star The Light House Hotel Galway enjoys a convenient location just a few steps from Saint Augustine's Well and offers 6 rooms with views of the sea. The guest house is a good starting point for Galway's sports attractions, including the Galway City Karting track, which is only 1.8 km away.
This Galway hotel is situated nearly 20 minutes on foot from the Millennium Children's Park and Playground and just a 14-minute stroll from the Lynch's Castle. The Roman Galway Catholic Cathedral is also located not far from the Light House. Visit Lough Atalia, merely 50 metres from the accommodation, and feel complete harmony with the nature of Ireland. Supplement your educational experience by visiting the National University of Ireland, which is within a 2-km distance of the hotel. The Light House Hotel stands close to the Aran Island Ferries, fairly close to Dublin Rd bus stop.
Providing a walk-in shower and a separate toilet, the bathrooms also have hairdryers and bath sheets.
While staying at the property, guests can choose from dining options nearby, such as Balcony House, located a mere 450 metres away, or O'Hehirs Bakery Cafe at an 8-minute walking distance.

Overall, it's incredible base for exploring Galway attractions. The rooms with a big balcony and a good view, for instance...

Beautiful old building, lovely staff and location. Pleasant view of lake. The breakfast was included and had variety of meals. Great stay in this pedestrian area. Restaurant in hotel was small and the pool area was amazing.
There was really small bed in my room.
