“Perfect place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 September 2011

There is a very warm welcome guaranteed at The Swallow, the owners are lovely friendly people who were extremely helpful in arranging taxi's and suggesting places to visit and eat in Galway. The Swallow is situated within walking distance of the city centre and Salthill, which made it perfect, it was also quiet and homely.The room rates were also pocket friendly. My room was spotless and very comfortable. I have recommended this B&B to many of my friends, young and old. I will be definitely be staying at The Swallow the next time I visit Galway.

“Wonderful stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2011

My family spent ten days in the Swallow and these were the best time we had outside China. We spent in different types of hotels, but the Swallow gave us very different feeling. The sweet hostess and host are so friendly. We feel just like at home. We will stay there once we have chance get back to Galway some day.

“Lovely place to stay, friendly owners, great location, great pricing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011

Me and my boyfriend stayed here and it was perfect location to Salthill with just a short walk away.
The owners were so helpful and friendly that I would go back again even for that reason.
I'd definitely recommend this B&B to everyone thinking on staying in Galway
