Hello: I would like to ask for a Dublin Hotel recommendation; to tour the Dublin sights, and yet need to travel to Galway. Dublin: 4 night stay. I will need to travel by train to Galway.
Thank you.. Judi
I stayed at Stauntons on the Green and the Buswells in May 2025.
I took a taxi from my hotel to the Heuston train station to take the train to Galway.

In April we stayed at the College Green hotel in Dublin before going to Galway. We took a taxi from the hotel to Heuston station. When we came back to Dublin we stayed at the Shelbourne, which was exceptional. In Galway we enjoyed the wine bar at Sheridan's Cheesemongers and dinner at Kirby's. Enjoy!
