Connemara Coast Hotel

Connemara Coast Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Had a wonderful stay at the Connemara coast hotel to celebrate our anniversary. Room was lovely and staff all friendly. We booked a table for dinner in the restaurant and it did not disappoint! Restaurant staff were absolutely fabulous! So helpful, kind and polite! Restaurant manager very friendly and kind and our server (I think his name was Evan) was just the best! Service was exceptional! Couldn’t fault anything! Literally our only complaint is that you can’t leave a tip when paying via card and we never carry cash anymore so we were disappointed that we couldn’t tip for the exceptional service! But a huge thank you to our server who made our anniversary meal so wonderful and memorable! "
