Accommodation

Host family
A language is learned best when you are constantly immerged in the culture of the country. Staying with an Irish family means sharing in the lifestyle of a new culture on a daily basis and having an unforgettable experience. The families are chosen with care and know the school well. Students stay in a single room and benefit from half board during the week and full board at weekends.

Shared apartment (from 18 years)
The apartments made available by the school consist of two or three spacious bedrooms with the choice of a single bed, a double bed or two separate beds. During the high season, apartments with four to seven bedrooms are also available. Additionally, they are equipped with a cooker. Some apartments have a washing machine whilst others offer access to a laundry room. Situated around 5-20 minutes on foot from the school, they represent an ideal option for those who wish to live with other international students close to the city centre.

Testimonial

Benoît Voile The school is a haven of peace where we can learn English but also share life experiences with different people from different countries. I really appreciated the activities proposed by the school and the friendly atmosphere. My accommodation was absolutely comfortable. I really enjoyed my host family who is really friendly and open-minded, that’s why I could talk with them. I would recommend Atlantic Language Galway because the staff and the teachers are competent and friendly. The school is perfectly located in the city centre.
