My stay at Park House Hotel in Galway had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, just a short walk to Eyre Square, making exploring the city super easy. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, which really enhanced my experience. However, I found my room to be a bit dated and the view quite disappointing, looking out at a rusted wall. While I enjoyed the delicious breakfast, I felt the overall value for the price paid wasn't quite there.

My recent stay at Park House Hotel was a mixed bag. On one hand, I loved the central location close to attractions and appreciated the friendly service at breakfast. However, I was disappointed with the room size and the dated facilities, which felt like they needed a serious refresh. Overall, it was more of a 3-star experience rather than the 4-star rating advertised.
