Beautiful and relaxing stay.
Very clean, excellent service and breakfast. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable- they have great recommendations for off site excursions. The pillows on the bed were very flat and was my only complaint.

Jewel on the Galway coast
Despite the rain, we loved our stay! Front desk, porters, and door man/concierge were super helpful and informative. Our room was lovely, spacious and quiet. Spendy but worth it. Close to town, we were treated like a Lord and Lady! The sitting rooms were gorgeous, perfect to read a book or sip a warm drink by the fire. The "Abbey" was custom built for one of the original ladies of the house who was an invalid. Now it is converted into a beautiful sitting room/game room with gothic touches. My favorite space. Wait staff in the restaurants needed more training - Dinner in the Palmer Kitchen (casual option) went an extra hour as the wait staff seemed to forget us after we ordered starters, and brought us other people's dishes on two occasions, ignored our neighbors. We had to ask for the check three times. Food was good, but needs better management, at least to train newer staff on dining service. Breakfast was generous and tasty, again, waitress never brought our toast after 2 requests. That dining room was elegant. There is also fine dining in the Pullman Restaurant (converted train cars) which I'm assuming has better service. We'll try on our next visit.

High end Stay
The place is setup around a golf course very close to Gallway downtown. It has an older vibe. We had to book two rooms and really not "family" oriented. You are better off staying in town with young kids. A lot to spend on a overnight stay. The Pullman restaurant is a nice experience. It is expensive so be prepared. The staff were all incredibly attentive and had fun drinks. The food was more about art deco. The yards are pretty. Parking was easy. The staff was great.
