My husband and I stayed with Stella for 2 nights. She was hilarious. The location was great close to the pubs. Stella had good recommendations for places to eat. She was very funny. The rooms were the biggest of the 5 B&Bs we stayed at. We would stay here again.

We stayed here for our first B&B stay in Ireland. The house is a great location within walking distance to downtown Galway, as well as the beach area/promenade in Salthill. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great the night we arrived, but we got a good dinner recommendation from Stella and enjoyed our evening out. The next morning the sun was out... More

Tried a B&B for one night in Galway and this was a excellent find. Had a warm welcome and allowed to park the car early which allowed us to walk into Galway, take about 10mins. The B&B was excellent and very clean and bedlinen brilliant white..real credit to hostess. Only downside was the ensuite was a tad small but overall... More

Lovely B&B with excellent easy parking and a nice patio for coffee or waking up in the morning. Stella is a wonderful hostess who I can say made us hands down the best breakfast our whole trip in Ireland! Vegetarian? No problem! Very friendly and great with directions and recommendations.

I have visited Galway many many times now (since 1975 to be precise!!!) and I've stayed at Consilio a good few times too, as it is so close to the amenities of Galway city and easily within walking distance of shops, pubs, restaurants etc. Stella is a great hostess, who shows genuine interest in her guests, and is extremely helpful...

Stella is a wonderful host and she was genuinely ineterested in our experieces. She also helped us to find a pharmacist. Her B&B is in a residential area, just outside the hustle and bustke of Galway,but close enough to walk there. It was very relaxing. Our room was a soothing white with blue accents. It was one of my favoirte... More

We really enjoyed the time at Consilio, there were 5 of us and we stayed 2 nights, the fresh fruit was wonderful, it was clean and so close to town that we walked, and best of all, Stella was just great. we are saving her information next time we return. 4.5 rating.

Consilio is an excellent bed and breakfast, breakfast was quite tasty and the room was more than up to the standard. It's located at Whitestrand Avenue, which is some 10 minutes from the Quays and the Spanish Arch. Parking facilities are adequate and, as I said, in a quite nice, safe and, above all, quiet area in the city. I... More
