The Connacht Hotel
Certification: Green Hospitality Silver County: Galway (City Centre) Type: Hotel
The Connacht Hotel holds Green Hospitality Silver certification, Ireland’s own hospitality sector environmental standard, independently audited. For travellers staying in Galway City who want certified eco accommodation rather than a self-declared sustainable hotel, The Connacht is the independently verified option.
The Certification
Green Hospitality Silver certification is awarded by the Green Hospitality Programme, Ireland’s environmental certification standard for the hospitality sector. It requires documented performance across energy management, water usage, and waste reduction, independently audited by the programme.
Silver certification represents genuine verified performance. It is not the same as a hotel that has made some sustainability commitments. It is a hotel that has had those practices independently assessed and confirmed.
Location
The Connacht Hotel is in the heart of Galway city, within walking distance of the city’s principal restaurants, cultural venues, and the famous Latin Quarter. Galway is the obvious base for exploring Connemara, the Aran Islands, and the Clare coastline. Having a certified eco hotel in the city centre means the journey to genuinely certified eco accommodation does not require leaving Galway.
The Hotel
The Connacht is a full-service city hotel with 147 rooms, a leisure centre, meeting rooms, and bar and restaurant facilities. The Green Hospitality certification applies across the hotel’s operations: energy systems, water management, and waste practices are all part of the independently audited standard.
