A HOTEL STEEPED IN HISTORY...

Hotel Meyrick on Eyre Square is one of the longest established hotels in Galway City. It first opened its grand doors to guests in 1852, it was then known as the Railway Hotel. It was completed at a cost of £30,000 for the Midland and Great Western Railway Company. The company’s architect, John Skipton Mulvany, designed both the Galway railway station and hotel. It has been intrinsically tied in to the history of the town since the mid nineteenth century.

In 1925, the hotel was renamed the Great Southern Hotel following the merger of the various railway companies in southern Ireland into the Great Southern Railway Company.
