Newly Opened Townhouse in Galway with Free Parking

Amenities and Services

The Urban Nest Townhouse opened in March 2024 and offers free on-site parking with 5 driveway spots and additional street parking. All rooms include smart TVs with Netflix access, USB and USB-C outlets by the bed, and tea and coffee facilities. Daily housekeeping services, express check-in/check-out, and luggage storage are provided for guest convenience.

Rooms and Accommodations

Each room has a private ensuite bathroom with a rain shower and quality toiletries. Room types include single, double, twin, family, and economy twin with bunk beds, all recently renovated with fresh paint and modern fixtures. The rooms feature comfortable bedding, blackout blinds, and a mix of floor levels including ground-floor units with private entrances.

Location and Accessibility

The townhouse sits on a quiet residential street just a 5-minute walk from Eyre Square, Galway's main square, and the Latin Quarter's bars and restaurants. The bus and train stations are within a 10-minute walk, and the Dexcon sports ground is adjacent. Guests can reach the city center without dealing with the noise of the pub district.

Services for Travelers

A reception desk is staffed during daytime hours, and a key-code door system allows easy after-hours access. Staff provide local excursion information and recommendations for day trips to the Cliffs of Moher. The property has a no-breakfast policy but provides complimentary tea, coffee, and bottled water in rooms.

Family and Group Accommodations

Family rooms and twin rooms are available, with some units offering separate sleeping areas and space for up to three guests. The ground-floor cabins provide private entrances and direct access to the parking area, suitable for groups or those with heavy luggage. Children are welcome, and the quiet location ensures restful nights for all ages.
