The room was dirty and the shower & sink were not cleaned before I used them. - I wish I had taken pictures. Air conditioning was very noisy so couldn’t sleep with it on . The room was cold in the morning and the heating did not work. The gym is tiny and needs upgrading and expanding. I ordered a beer at the bar and was told they didn’t have a keg available. The breakfast is very crowded and only 2 coffee machine which are painfully slow and constantly need to be fixed by the staff. Please go back to making pots of coffee for your guests.

A little far out
A little far out from the Shop Street/ marina area but the drive isn’t bad. The toilet did not flush, we had to use the bucket from the bathroom waste bin to pour water down the toilet to help it flush. It did have a bathtub/shower combo. Overall decent stay. I think if we ever go back we’ll get a hotel closer to the marina.

The Clayton is a nice property. For visitors to Galway It's a bit out if the way, about a 15 minute drive from Shop street. There's not much to see or do close to the hotel, nor are there very many restaurants close. The hotel has a nice pool & the rooms were clean & modern.

Not near the city center, but good for us. We were using it as a layover between driving days. Parking was convenient, a relatively spacious lot with easy to get into spots. Rooms were clean and comfortable.

Highly disappointing.
Home 2 days early from what was meant to be a 4 night stay. Highly disappointing. Check in was just ok, no explanation of where amenities were. Room was clean and comfortable although the window was broken but left an air and noise gap facing a very busy road. We made our way to the tiny pool only to be asked to leave shortly as kids had to be out for 7pm. No one informed us. Room service again another issue. Unable to order kids meals, firstly no menu on the ordering system, waited 20 min for a call back from restaurant to be told i dont know as room service goes to different kitchen. Reception didn't know either. Ended up ordering adult goujans and chip at 19euro which were cheap frozen goujans. Very disappointing. I had steak sandwich. It was lovely. Next morning the room was like a furnace. Air con broken. Maintenance tried to fix it. Ended up packing up to move room and again another mess. Left them for the afternoon only to return to be given key cards to our room but housekeeping was only starting the room and didn't know we were due in. We had to wait downstairs again and then got a call to say our room was ready. Luggage arrived shortly. Air con now broken in this room. Told it whole hotel but Maintenance said our room and 1 other not fixed. Top it off the plumbing noise when other rooms were using facilities ended up with loud screeching from our bathroom. Rang reception. Couldnt help. Continued through the night til morn. Very litte sleep. Very sad kids and mam
