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.

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.
