We stayed at this hotel for two nights. The hotel / rooms are exceptionally clean. You need a room key to access bedroom floors from the lift and also to gain access to hallways so it feels extra safe and stops people just wandering around!
Great food, very central and rooms are very comfortable. Great short-term stay option, will definitely be staying here again!! 👍👍

Absolutely great service at the hotel, we arrived early and they took our bags and called when the room was ready. Restaurant staff were amazing always ready to assist, take orders and clean up both meals and empty tables. Music in the lounge was great it really suited the room and added some atmosphere. Got a complimentary upgrade to the room which was unexpected and greatly appreciated.
Also the termal spa was very relaxing and felt great afterwards.
Will definitely be coming back when we...

The Hawthorn is a destination hotel, gorgeous decor, fantastic staff, super location, drop your bags, breathe and relax. Plenty to do on the grounds with a gorgeous golf course and fantastic walks, or indulge in the spa. Sure sign of a great hotel is when you don’t want to leave and I didn’t!

Our thanks to Ann and Michael for their warm hospitality and welcome. Our stay was most pleasant and relaxing. The surroundings and cuisine added to our considerable enjoyment and we look forward to our next visit to Galway as we'll have no need to search for accommodation ....Oranhill Lodge will be our destination.

The room was perfect, and the breakfast was spot on. Unfortunately the heat that night spoiled it but that's not st judes problem. I've stayed in the four seasons in monahan recently and if I was to pick one, it be st Judes.
