Imperial Hotel Galway Review
Located within a 400-metre distance of Middle Street, the lovely 3-star Imperial Hotel Galway features barbecue grills and a golf course. Thanks to its central location, this Galway hotel is adjacent to Lynch's Castle and close to a railway station.
A continental breakfast is offered in the restaurant. The bar serves refreshing drinks. A snack menu and grills are offered here for all tastes. The Cellar Bar and Restaurant with European cuisine is located within easy walking distance of the hotel.
The property is about 5 minutes by car from Eyre Square Centre and within 5 minutes' drive of Collegiate Parish Church of St Nicholas of Myra. Places of worship to visit quite close to the Imperial Hotel Galway include the Expansive green-domed Galway Catholic Cathedral.
Nature lovers will appreciate the proximity to Lough Atalia, which is 0.9 km away. There is National University of Ireland 14 minutes' stroll away, and Galway bus station merely a 5-minute walk from Imperial Hotel Galway.
The lovely property features 69 rooms with a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, as well as coffee/tea making facilities. Guests can also use a tub and a shower, along with such amenities as hair dryers and free toiletries.
For those travelling from afar, Connemara airport is 39 minutes' drive away.
