Address: Eyre square , Galway , Ireland Show on map
Tucked into a quiet little pocket of the city centre just a block from Eyre Square, the Victoria Hotel was only built in the 1980s, but its wide, old-fashioned lobby and languorous rooms the colour of autumn leaves, give the impression it's been here forever.Even the personalised service has a gracious, old-fashioned feel at this 57-room hotel. But fear not - amenities are up-to-the-minute, with multichannel TVs, telephones, individual thermostat-controlled in-room heating, and comfy mattresses, as well as brand-new bathrooms that have been re-tiled top to bottom, include non-slip bathtubs, and are kitted out with Irish Natural Care bath products and hair dryers. A full Irish and continental breakfast with freshly baked bread is included, and from 08:00-21:00 you can get room service from the bar and restaurant downstairs (though there's no alcohol service). A lift allows for wheelchair access. If you're driving, be sure to get a hotel stamp to take advantage of discounted parking at Hynes Yard Car Park in Dock St.

Galway locals know 'The Vic' for its nightclub of the same name, which cranks on Friday and Saturday nights. The cover charge is waived for guests, and music ranges from indie rock, '70s and '80s, to resident DJs 110th Street. For a quiet pint, visit the timber-panelled, pressed copper-ceilinged Queen Street Bar.
