About the Hotel
The g Hotel(TM)s mix of old Hollywood glamour and elements that evoke the coastal region of Galway, Ireland create a beautifully unique design experience. With renowned hat-designer Philip Treacy, a native of Galway, at the helm, each room takes on it(TM)s own special personaility; from the black glass walled main entrance that features a tank filled with Connemara-bred seahorses, to the hot pink Pink Lounge, with chairs covered in bright Andy Warhol fabric and a hand loomed vortex rug, to the luxurious linens and finishes that grace each finely appointed room. The hotel is home to Riva g, a first class resturant featuring international cusines, and a ESPA, a spa that promises to erase the stress of travel. At every turn there is something distinctive to catch your eye, and a staff ready to provide impreccable service with a warm smile.

Reviews for The g Hotel & Spa
Not our style.
This is a very nice hotel, just not our style. It is modern, sleek and glitzy. The atmosphere and location did not appeal to us at all. Service was very friendly and courteous. There are multiple bars with late night service available. We had booked the breakfast included option and it was a bit of a surprise as it was all off the menu, no buffet for cold options. It was not to our liking.

A great relaxing place to stay if visiting Galway
This was one of our favourite hotels on the trip.The main reception areas and bar are beautifully decorated and comfortable with friendly helpful staff. The spa has a v good sauna and steam room and a big hot water bubbling pool area and relaxation area upstairs. Enjoyed dinner and the live music as well as the set early evening 1930s Swing style music. About a 20 min walk into Galway centre. Only reason for 4 stars rather than 5 were the long dark corridors to the bedrooms and our bathroom radiator did not work.Its also a bit odd backing onto an industrial estate

GREAT - location, ambiance, staff, food, decor and rooms
Though a bit of a delay on check in (more attributable to a disorganised group of unprepared tourists than anything else) the G delivered as always. The staff are absolutely amazing and service excellent. On the second night a new menu was introduced which was so much better than the one it replaced (not that it was bad in any way) the ambiance of the hotel is wonderful and the room had incredible views. The hotel is well located whether you want to spend time in town or head in any direction from Galway via motorway (Galway traffic is at times the worst I have experienced anywhere in the world) If your in Galway the G is well worth a visit

Staff are the stars of this hotel
I had a few booking issues initially but the staff are very friendly and helpful. Kiryl and the front desk manager were very kind. Staff are the star of this hotel. Rooms and breakfast are lovely too. We had a great weekend with family all thanks to them

The most average 5 star experience I’ve had
The reception staff were more what I would expect from an average motel than a 5 star, clearly don’t want to be there and it’s very apparent. There is no gym facility, apparently under construction, I was told that you get a pass for “across the road” when I later asked for a pass there were none left. And they up charge for the Sauna / “pool” access. More Ryanair than 5 star. Made the whole experience very average for top tier expense experience.
