Comfortable, clean, friendly.

Nox is a good hotel. Comfortable, clean, with friendly staff. Not luxurious but will do nicely for a quick stopover. I’d definitely stay there again on future business trips to Galway.

This hotel was nice, staff was friendly. It just didn’t match the price tag at all. It was more like a Days Inn, which are fine lower end hotels, then what I expected given the price tag. We stayed at several other higher end hotels that met our expectations, this one just didn’t equate.

The Nox hotel was an amazing place to stay in Galway. The rooms were spacious and well kept. The staff was friendly and the food in the restaurant was excellent. We had breakfast there as well as a lunch and dinner. The service and food was always excellent. It was a bit of a walk to Shop street and city centre but very doable. It was about a 25 mintue walk. We took cabs sometimes and it was about a 10mintue ride. Thoroughly enjoyed this hotel and will stay there again.
