On the edge of beautiful, scenic Connemara and with magnificent sea views over Ardbear Bay, this charming hotel offers individually decorated en suite rooms and a superb award-winning restaurant. Free WiFi is accessible throughout.

Wonderful location with breathtaking views from the bar & restaurant. Staff were very friendly helpful & attentive without being intrusive. Thankyou for making us feel at home. Food was mouth-wateringly delicious. especially the fish dishes. Good wine selection. Spotlessly clean. Although our room didn't have a sea view the manicured gardens still retained their Irish wilderness. Will definitely be back

    A member of staff was passing when I was getting my child out of car safely. He saw I needed assistance offered to bring bags and was very nice and chatted to my child as we were walking, very welcoming.

    Had to arrange accommodation for family funeral at short notice so didn't know what we'd get. However it was very well fitted out, clean and warm and we were able to book mid-week dates - very good

    Breakfast was delicious, room was big and bed was comfy. Location was perfect, very central. I stayed here the night before beginning a 3 day 450KM cycle along the Wild Atlantic Way for Laura Lynn, Ireland's only children's hospice. The staff were so kind and even donated (https://www.idonate.ie/fundraiser/DonateMSWAW) to the cause when I told them why I was there. Wonderful people!

    The house is much nicer than the photos suggest. It is very large, with all 3 bedrooms being en-suite which is brilliant. The ‘upside down’ layout of the house suited us very well indeed as we have older kids and it afforded everyone privacy. But it might not be as great for families with younger children. For the price paid, this is honestly amongst the best on offer in Clifden. It’s dog friendly too, which is perfect for us.

    Located in the heart of Clifden making it an ideal location to book. Open plan and all one room which was perfect for our stay as a family with young children. Both a shower and bath included in the toilet. Great to have the option with kids. Very spacious balcony with an amazing view. Will definitely book this accommodation again in the future. Host was very easy to deal with and self check in means you can arrive at any time. This suits anyone like us that never plans in advance and goes with what the day brings.

    Location is beautiful. A couple of minutes walk to the beach. Although weather not brilliant the children enjoyed picking shells on beach and some of the family enjoyed a swim. Dinner at the hotel was absolutely amazing. Staff helpful and so good with the children , made them feel so special. One of our grandchildren is a coeliac and this was not a problem dining there.
