Great hotel for exploring Connemara!
Exceptional service from check-in to check-out. Darrin was very professional and welcoming. He ensured our stay was enjoyable and made recommendations for day trips with less busy and unique stops. The restaurant dinner was excellent (we had oysters, mussels, and duck confit) with a full wine list. There was live music in the lounge and a bar/library to relax in. Rooms were basic with the bathroom needing a bit of updating, but comfortable. There is no air conditioning in the rooms, however, a fan was provided and with the window open we slept well. The campus was nicely appointed with a fitness center, spa, and pool. Several pubs and restaurants within walking distance, however we ate at both the hotel restaurant and station house pub as the food selection was good and tasty.

The hotel is excellent! Friendly staff, updated comfortable and clean rooms, great food and hotel bar, and great location to explore charming Clifden. I recommend driving down from Westport Mayo on the Wild Atlantic Way before you arrive. Such a charming part of this beautiful country!

Great reception on arrival
A great welcome from Clare(?), from Boston, who couldn't do enough. The guys across the way in the bar/restaurant were also fab, particularly in giving advice on Irish malts. As a newbie, I wasn't sure what I would like. Only downside was the water in the room not being replaced. When I asked about it, I was told it was only for arrival, so whether you stay 1 night or 3 you only get one lot of water. Either offer it or not. The bar staff were very accomodating there too
