WHY CHOOSE SLEEPZONE GALWAY CITY:

Sleepzone Galway City is the flagship hostel of the West of Ireland\'s leading hostel group and is a modern, purpose-built hostel, in the heart of Galway City.

REVIEWS

Guidebooks consistently give us fantastic reviews:

�it\'s big, it\'s attractive and it has plenty of extras. Private rooms are as good as any you\'re likely to find in a B&B and the staff is unfailingly friendly� � MTV Europe Guide;

��remarkably accommodating... takes the \'s\' out of hostel\' - Let\'s Go Guide;

And many thanks to all of you who have ranked us so highly on Hostelworld.com over the past ten years - in which time we\'ve won several HOSCARS !

OUR CENTRAL LOCATION:

We are just a short distance (3 mins walk) from the central bus & train station (Bus Eireann and Irish Rail will get you to here), and the coach park (a variety of private bus companies operate from here) and 100 metres from Eyre Square. All of the action in Galway is just around the corner, but not outside our windows, so you should get a good night�s sleep.

WE ARE INFORMATIVE:

Our staff are knowledgeable about every aspect of the city, able to offer advice and tips whether it�s a cultural experience, a cosy pub or stand-up comedy that you�re looking for.

DEALS:

We regularly get FREE passes to nightclubs, music and comedy events available to guests; the FREE map you receive on check-in has been designed by our staff, and has all the spots of interest as well as the secret little gems that you may never hear about. The staff have researched the nightlife of Galway extensively for you � it�s tough work, but someone�s got to do it ;)

OWNER-MANAGED:

Sleepzone is owner-managed with dedication - it\'s not part of a big corporate group!

Sleepzone is committed to sustainable tourism in the West of Ireland.

Sleepzone supports the arts and other Festivals in Galway including the Galway Arts Festival, Druid Theatre, Macnas. Sleepzone also supports Burrenbeo, Go Connemara and other groups and events in the Connemara and Burren areas.

Moving to Galway? We have information on everything you need - accommodation, jobs, getting set up with a phone, opening a bank account and we can advise you while you get settled here in those first few weeks!

EXPLORE THE WEST OF IRELAND FROM THE DOORSTEP OF A SLEEPZONE

We have discounted tickets for tours to the Cliffs of Moher (in The Burren region) and Connemara � and tour buses collect (and drop off in the evening) at our front door, daily. We have plenty of maps and guidebooks � and if you get there and realise you would like to stay the night, we have THE CONNEMARA HOSTEL and THE BURREN HOSTEL!

A FEW THINGS TO NOTE

We must ask for a photo I.D. on arrival. Check-in is at 3pm (as the rooms are being cleaned) but of course you�re welcome to leave your bags with us until then, chill out & have a cuppa.

Please note that Sleepzone Galway is an alcohol free zone . Galway is a party town. Accommodating over 200 people/night we feel our priority is to provide a fun, safe, clean, friendly , value for money accommodation - for groups, for individual travellers, for families , for people of all age and nationality.
