The HYDE Hotel is a modern, boutique-style hotel located in the heart of Galway City, right next to the train and bus stations, and just a minute’s walk from Eyre square. Located in the East Village of Galway City, the HYDE Hotel formerly Forster Court Hotel is close to some of Galway’s best bars and restaurants and the cobbled Shop Street, the retail hub of Galway. Bedrooms at the HYDE Hotel all feature multi-channel flat-screen TVs, power showers and free WiFi. They also have hairdryers and tea&coffee making facilities. We would just like to make you aware, HYDE Bar is one of the most popular bars in Galway, we have live music until 1am every Friday and Saturday, however this means sometimes there is going to be some noise at night. We do our best to minimize this, but respectfully, if you are looking for an early night, we might not be the perfect choice for you at the weekends Hyde Bar&Gin Parlor serves delicious freshly cooked food sourced from the finest of local ingredients. Galway Cathedral and St Nicholas Church are both within 5 minutes’ walk from the hotel. Galway Racecourse is just 10 minutes' drive.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.7 for a two-person trip.

“Everything about the Hyde Hotel was spot on. We loved the decor of the hotel, comfortable rooms, friendly staff as well as the location. We also loved that the hotel not only had a restaurant/bar attached to it but also a great cafe.”

“Excellent location because the train and bus station are in very close proximity. For going out, Latin Quarter is a short walk across Eyre Square and the best tours leave from the Hyde Hotel. Also, the food and cocktails at their bar/restaurant...”
