This was a nice room for a short stop off on our trip. The room was a little small so the price was comparatively a little high, however you had the covenience of being within walking distance of everything as you are in the middle of the township.

Great Place and Friendly Folks
The check in experience was exceptional. After contacting the “front desk”, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The proprietor acted like we were a part of the family. The room was on the second level and two narrow stairs lead up the a very comfortable room. The restaurant staff recommended a pub for an after dinner pint. A hot breakfast was included with our stay. A quaint little town.

Quick Stop
We were only in Athenry for one night and left after breakfast, so I can’t speak much about the surrounding area. The Old Barracks Lodge was charming though and the food was delicious. We ate dinner at the pizza place upon arrival and enjoyed a delicious breakfast before leaving. Pastries from the bakery were left at our bedside, which was a sweet touch! The room was clean and comfortable. I’d stay here again for sure.

Cozy, comfortable and clean room in Athenry
Cozy, comfortable and clean room with a pizza restaurant and bakery downstairs, parking in the back, and breakfast at their cafe across the street. We stayed here so we could easily drive up to Galway for the day and then get out to the Cliffs of Moher next morning as early as possible. Checked off all our boxes.

Such a cute lodge and the included breakfast was so good. The pizzeria nearby was a hit for us as well. Thank you to Scott for making himself and his staff available for a later check in as we had some car issues that delayed us. They responded promptly and the check in staff was awesome! Would highly recommend. You definitely get your money worth at this location.
