Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in Galway

"Perhaps it should come as no surprise that this hotel is so well designed as the world-famous designer, Philip Treacy, created it. This five-star hotel has rooms with giant beds, comfy couches, and stunning bathrooms which contain double showers and freestanding tubs. Adding to the unique décor of the hotel are its door handles in the shape of hats, and its Grand Salon, you will witness a dramatic 300 twinkling mirror balls."

"This place isn’t cheap by any means, but it’s one of the finest 5 star hotels in Ireland. Designed by the celebrated milliner Phillip Treacy, the G Hotel has everything from beautifully decorated rooms to an award-winning spa and restaurant on offer. The rooms are spacious, fitted with comfortable beds and some, like the one in the photo above, have gorgeous sea views."

"The only building of its kind in Ireland, the Fishery Watchtower is a Victorian “draft netting station”. It was built in a neo-Romanesque style in 1853 as a way of keeping an eye on fish stocks and spotting any illicit fishing on the river. “Draft netting”, was a way of catching salmon by suspending a single net between the shore and a row boat."

"One of the newest Galway attractions, this museum was only opened in in 2015. After falling into despair for many years, it was restored to its former glory and now features a small museum detailing the rich history of river fishing in Galway city. We always travel with a filter water bottle."

"The weather in Galway was a bit hit and miss today, but it didn’t stop us from exploring a bit. It was nice to be in a city today and not doing as much driving. A post shared by Kelly Mann (@klynn2020) on Jul 31, 2018 at 1:20pm PDT"

"If you’re in search of family friendly places to eat in Salthill, look no further than the Galleon Restaurant. When a restaurant has been owned by the same family for 3 generations, they’ve learned a thing or two along the way, and that’s how it is at The Galleon. The restaurant has been refurbished in recent times, but the family-friendly atmosphere has remained, making it one of several brilliant restaurants in Salthill for a family meal."

"However, when it is a stunner of a day, Galway is THE place to be. Notably, the Spanish Arch and Salthill, which come alive the moment a ray of sunshine hits Galway Bay. To take this list a little bit out of Galway City Centre, the Galleon Restaurant located in the heart of Salthill is an oldie but a goody."
