We chose the ardilaun Initially because of its price, compared to other 4 star hotels it was good value for money. It's a 30 minute walk to the city centre which is OK if the weather is good. 10 euro for the taxi back (rip off) The ardilaun has beautiful gardens and plenty of free parking. The hotel itself although a bit dated has a spacious lobby. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The leisure facilities were excellent with good size pool, steam room and jacuzzi. One gripe I had was the...

We had an excellent stay at the Connemara Coast Hotel. I could not fault them on anything. They handled all of the restrictions really well and every single member of staff was friendly and accommodating. Cannot recommend the hotel highly enough and have been telling everyone about it since we left.

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!! 👍👍

Fantastic location located in the middle of all bars Restaurants and shops. The staff were very friendly. The hotel is very basic but very good for Solo travellers.

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!
