The Hotel Meyrick Galway has a 160-year-old tradition of entertaining guests of high society in a lavish fashion amid elegant surroundings. Presidents, Princes and First Ladies have all visited the hotel for gala events.

It is the blend of tradition with modern facilities and the attention to detail that makes the Hotel Meyrick Galway such a unique conference and banqueting venue. The diversity of the facilities allows the hotel to customise packages to suit the individual needs of your group.

Standard rooms are decorated in a modern theme. Rich crimson and cream colours combine with modern light fittings to give a chic urban ambience. The rooms are equipped with all of the amenities you would expect in a 4-star hotel, plus a few extras unique to Hotel Meyrick too.

The Hotel Meyrick offers a range of bars and dining options, from fine dining in the award winning Oyster Room Restaurant to the informal menu offered in Fagans Bar in the basement.

An afternoon tea to the sound of the pianist playing the grand piano is another tradition among Galway people. You can enjoy a quiet reprieve after a hectic day's shopping or sight seeing in the sumptuous surroundings of the hotel lobby.
