Top Ardmore Hotel Reviews

Walter Raleigh Hotel

8/10 Good

"The wifi was terrible. We could not stay connected for more than 2 minutes and when we mentioned something to the front desk it never did improve"

Cliff House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful setting nestled into the cliff. A lot of the roof of the building was natural which made for a more, naturalist type setting. Taking the Cliff Walk was experience we will never forget, the waves crashing created clouds of mist made us feel like we were in another era. Thank you for a wonderful stay!"

Castlemartyr Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Always incredible. Great staff and rooms"
