Accommodation in Galway
Galway is one of Ireland’s fastest growing and most popular cities, with a current population of over 210,000 people. Like many Irish cities, Galway has enjoyed a massive growth of late and has matured into a bohemian Mecca with a wealth of fine shops, bars and restaurants. Central to this bustling vibrancy is the city’s main thoroughfare known as “Eyre Square”, or known locally as just, “The Square”. Representing Galway’s modern, yet historic image, the recently renovated Eyre Square is Galway’s pride and joy and features the spectacular “Eyre Square Centre” – a shopper’s nirvana of over 60 national and international shopping outlets.
