Sleepzone
is the West of Ireland's leading hostel operator with hostels
in Galway City, Connemara and The
Burren.
Sleepzone - Galway
is situated in Galway City Center. With
a population of 80,000 Galway is a major city by Irish standards.
As home to a lively arts scene, Galway
has earned the reputation of the arts capital of the West
of Ireland with a proliferation of artists, writers, musicians,
art galleries and theatres. Like most ancient cities Galway
was founded because of its strategic access to water and
still has a thriving harbour and dockland area. The town's
medieval arches, alleyways and cobblestone lanes lead to
quality cosmopolitan restaurants, convivial pubs and traditional
music sessions.

Sleepzone Connemara Hostel
Connemara
is a region of astounding barrenness, a savage
beauty as Oscar Wilde once remarked. You
can feel the Atlantic breeze as you explore a mixture of
rugged coastline, vast marshy bog, granite moorland and
innumerable lakes, surrounded by stark mountain ranges,
a cyclist's paradise.
