The hotel is centrally located right in Clifden and I could walk everywhere, including the Connemara Pony Sales!
Parking, Spa, L’Occitane bath products, bathtub!, vegan breakfast, Christmas decor. Would have liked/preferred a deluxe room with either a king sized bed or 2 twins…double bed was small for 2 women friends.
The hotel was very busy so we expected a nosy night but even with the window open it was a good nights sleep. Nice location with shops within walking distance.
Spectacular hotel. Location walkable to town, great restaurants on premises with choice of several options. Nice bar with music. Town tour leaves from the hotel. Laundry bag done for e14 and ready for us the same day if we left it early. We were happy with the room which was modest but quite acceptable and pleasant. Nice staff. Easy parking. Nothing negative to say
The staff was very helpful with all our needs. Breakfast was excellent, we enjoyed a meal in the restaurant and really enjoyed a lovely massage and the jacuzzi! I would stay here again for sure.
We got a really warm welcome on arrival which was lovely. They accommodated us having dinner even though we arrived only just before 9pm. Food was really tasty and service was great - plenty of well trained staff.
The hotel all looks newly decorated and is finished to a very high standard - felt luxurious. The room was clean and comfortable.
Location was great. Plenty of car parking although it was very full, but we did manage to find a space.
