Sanctuary in the City was a fantastic location, close to the city and yet in the heart of the country. The house itself is a beautifully renovated cottage with lots of light, space and tastefully decorated. There is a walled patio area with a fantastic teak table and chairs not to mention the hammock - perfect for relaxing outside. There was also lots of space for parking which was great given that I hate parking too close to anyone else. I loved my room with its large, modern ensuite and powerful shower. The whole space was very relaxing and Edel was very welcoming. She gave me lots of good advice about local amenities and what to see in my limited time in Galway. She even offered me a lift into town! I would highly recommend Sanctuary in the City to anyone heading to Galway - I honestly don't think you will find a better location. I am looking forward to a return visit in the near future and I have already recommend this location to my family and friends.
