Overlooking Lough Atalia, just 15 minutes walk from Galway’s city centre, the g Hotel & Spa is one of Ireland’s most stylish hotels comprising of 101 beautifully appointed guestrooms, ESPA, and AA Rosette-winning GEO Restaurant. The hotel was designed by Philip Treacy, a world-famous milliner to the stars, so you will know from the moment you walk in the door that you are somewhere a little bit magical.

Their cosy bedrooms are a destination in themselves. Gorgeously decorated, featuring original artwork and filled with luxurious details and welcoming touches. You’ll find plush, cosy robes and slippers, pampering toiletries from ESPA, refreshing mineral water and a mini-fridge. There’s high speed internet for work (if you must) or Netflix binges. Their range of rooms include: Superior rooms, deluxe rooms, luxury rooms, lake view suites and specialty suites. And obviously, the iconic presidential suite, named after supermodel Linda Evangelista.

An outstanding style icon on the West of Ireland hotel scene, the g Hotel has upped the style stakes even further in a dramatic one-million-euro refurbishment of its spacious foyer, signature lounges and opulent restaurant and cocktail bar. A casual lunch with friends in the Signature Lounges, or high-stakes fine dining where you propose to the love of your life? Whatever brings you to the table, their staff will take exquisite care of you. All you need to do is surrender your tastebuds to the creative, passionate, award-winning culinary team. They always find new ways to make food amazing, from the simplest room-service snacks all the way to the show-stopping cuisine in GEO.

Spread over two secluded, sumptuously designed floors, this is another world, devoted to quiet, calm, and outrageous pampering. Dedicated, highly trained ESPA therapists glide between 12 gorgeous rooms, dispensing well-being in the form of massages, facials, body wraps and other leading treatments. This is Galway’s only five star spa, and they take switching off very seriously.
