My friends and I arrived in Galway with no reservations, only a suggestion. The suggested B&B was full and Almara House was recommended. It was a wonderful experience and we spent two nights. Matt and Mary are terrific. They treated us as if we were old friends even though we were an unexpected addition to the house that first night.... more

This was our first stop in Ireland, and it was a wonderful welcome. The rooms and bathrooms were on the small side, but everything was clean. The best part about staying here was the delicious and beautifully presented breakfast and Mary and Matthew as kind and gracious hosts. My mom asked about cream for her coffee one day, which they... more

This is a gem of a B&B, from the moment we arrived we felt that we had made the right choice in booking this place. Mattie and Marie are true hosts giving us tips and advice on how and where to go. The rooms are to say the least superb both in decor and space. The breakfast was great with... more

My husband and I spent two nights at Almara House and were greeted by Matthew, who whisked our luggage up the stairs before we could even blink! He and his wife, Marie, were very very friendly and wonderful hosts. Their only concern was that we were happy and enjoyed our stay. The place is newer than most places we stayed... more

The room we had was lovely, very clean, and nicely appointed. Loved the bedding and decor. The dining room presentation and most of all the food presentation and quality was outstanding. We enjoyed our stay at the house and would recommend to others. more

We spent two nights in this very friendly Almara House Bed & Breakfast which is a really nice accommodation not far away from everything that is of interest in Galway. It is a 1 minute walk to the bus stop from which you can go straight to the centre of Galway. The room and the ensuite were very clean and... more

If we have one complaint - it's that the bed was so comfortable, we didn't want to get out of it in the morning so we wasted part of two days! This is a gem of a guesthouse, wonderful hosts Matt and Marie who bend over backwards to make sure your stay is as great as possible - nothing is... more

Fresh off the plane in Shannon my husband and I drove up the coast heading to Galway. Although tired and a bit out of sorts with our ancient GPS system we were greeted warmly by Matthew & Marie Kiernan at the Almara House. They quickly showed us to our sleeping area and we comfortably rested off a bit of the... more

The Kiernans made us feel like family at Almara House. Wonderfully and naturally genial people, Matthew and Mary went to the limit to ensure our stay was a great one. Galway is a fun town, and Almara House was a fortunate choice on our part. Believe the good reviews, this is a B&B worth booking. Highly recommended! Thank you Matt... more

My wife, three grown children, and I loved the Almara house. 1. Matt and Marie were great host. Before we traveled I peppered them with a dozen emails and they responded to all with very helpful travel information. The rooms are nice and the breakfest was good. 2. Location is okay, better if you have a car. We did not... more
