The Hotel’s two other Signature Lounges have been redesigned to still evoke glamour and luxury but with a more subtle hint. The Pink Room evokes class and intrigue with blush pink velvets, tasselled chairs and brass accents create a luxurious feel. In contrast is the Blue Room with its colour palette of ginger, charcoal, and rich timber. A texture palette of leathers, timber and fabric wall panelling make this an inviting lounge to linger in.

The staff were brilliant. Nothing too much trouble. Very friendly. The Hotel is amazing

    Luxury room with a very comfortable bed. Great location right in the heart of Galway city with parking just next door. Staff were very nice. The hotel was quite empty when we arrived so we got a little bit of VIP treatment with chocolates in the room. The view from the room looked out on the river which was quite special.

    Mike runs a SUPERB establishment! The property is beautifully maintained inside and out. Our room was spacious, clean and well-appointed; it also had basement access which was nice. Excellent, 5-star breakfasts prepared by Chef Mike himself; this was MORE than just breakfast, it was a culinary experience! Balance of staff was very friendly and efficient. Kilbree House also has ample on-site parking and it's just a short drive to downtown Galway and other areas. Good WiFi as well.

    Hotel was fabulous. We stayed here for our 25th wedding anniversary. The bedrooms were luxurious and really comfortable. The staff were so friendly, helpful and very professional. They couldn’t do enough for you. They had a valet parking service which was amazing. Food was out of this world. An added bonus it was in walking distance of Eyre Square. We have recommended the hotel to our friends and family. We have booked again for December and so looking forward to it. We give it 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️
