Small hotel very close to the ocean in Salthill area of Galway. The rooms are above the tapas bar downstairs. The room is extremely small. Suits one person but would probably struggle with two!

This is our go to restaurant. The food is consistently good, the atmosphere is very welcoming and chilled, the service is excellent and the prosecco and wine are always delicious! We usually go here in a group of between 2 and 6. It is a cosy restaurant. You do need to book in advance as this is a well known, busy restaurant. There is a large variety of tapas, each one bursting with different flavours -the chef knows how to pair/complement different flavours and tastes. The tapas come out as they are ready and the whole experience is very relaxed. I keep meaning to try other restaurants in Galway but I just cannot pass The Black Cat when I'm feeling like a nice evening out.

Beautiful and peaceful restaurant located close to the water. Every dish was really delicious and the staff were very accommodating and kind. Reasonably priced. Would definitely go again.

We didn't get a chance to eat at BlackCat, but we stayed in their hotel above the restaurant! It was the perfect place to stay for our time in Salthill, and I'd highly recommend it!

Beautifully furnished rooms, but too small if you have two big luggages. We couldn鈥檛 open them at the same time and it felt quite uncomfortable to move around in such a small space when you are on longer travels.
The food at the restaurant was great!

Super location.
Comfy bed and good shower.
Room was compact, you wouldn鈥檛 swing a cat in it 馃ぃ
Tea making facilities were in the hallway as there was not enough space in the bedroom, which isn鈥檛 ideal when some of the guests
decided to make tea at 1 a.m. and woke me up with all the noise.

Absolutamente fant谩stica experiencia gastron贸mica. El ambiente era acogedor y bien pensado, con un servicio atento durante toda la noche. La comida fue entregada con prontitud y muy bien presentada. Destacaron las tiernas mejillas de ternera, el rico y suave pat茅 de h铆gado, las vieiras perfectamente cocidas y el sabroso pez monje. La crema br没l茅e destacaba, sedosa y con una parte superior perfectamente crujiente. La 煤nica decepci贸n fue el plato de queso, que se sinti贸 sobreprecio por la porci贸n y la selecci贸n. En general, una comida memorable y vale la pena una visita.

Location piccola ma carina, raccolta. Servizio buono, cibo ottimo (specialmente il vino, che 猫 molto difficile da trovare davvero buono qui in irlanda) e prezzo direi adeguato agli standard. Anche le porzioni sono abbondanti quindi consiglio davvero! Ci ritornerei
