West Ireland Hotel Guide - Romantic Hotels in West Ireland, Ireland

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!

Stunning location and grounds. The staff are so warm and helpful. The room was spacious, comfortable and very private. Plenty of towels, robes, spa shower products. Luxurious rooms. Great variety in dining options, local food suppliers. Great history in the hotel & grounds. Endless chances to explore & try new activities from kayaking, clay pigeon shooting, archery, walking, falconry fishing. The spa is beautiful & really relaxing, very helpful staff with plenty of privacy. Delicious breakfast...

Lovely welcome on a damp evening. The rooms are exceptional and we had a very nice meal in the bar area followed by live music. A really lovely hotel with an understated exterior that wows you once inside. No car park a small inconvenience.

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.

Beautiful hotel and beautiful settings . Hotel was

The Lodge at Ashford Castle was honestly one of the best stays we've ever had in Ireland - the service and staff were out of this world! Everyone was so attentive and welcoming (even with our pup - so hard finding dog-friendly hotels in Ireland, let alone one that rolls out the red carpet!). Gorgeous location with lots of great walks. Breakfast was delicious and super hearty for a day of adventuring. And loved all the activities offered at the castle. We hope to come back some day!

We only stayed one night - I wish we could have spent longer here. We had a drink in the Boathole a fabulous relaxing dinner at The Kitchen, walked the walking path one the grounds and visited an old cemetery and megalithic stone site. You can fly fish, shoot clay pigeons, do archery or falconry. Very classy and beautiful place. Definitely worth the money to stay here you won't be disappointed. The staff and very kind and classy.

Great hotel very comfortable. Will definitely be back unfortunately the only downfall is the food. Food not good if they master that then it would be perfect. Great staff

The place was immaculate, the staff were so accomodating and we were treated like royalty at the fantastic spa. Thoroughly recommend.All in the centre of the nicest town in Ireland! Win! Win!

The property is responsive and very accommodating in facilitating to our needs. It’s important for us travelling with a young child. The apartment is well equipped and maintained. The instruction we’ve got for self check in is clear. The location is convenient and has a great view.

Really great value and we'll run

Really enjoyed our break at Connemara Sands. Rooms were bright and airy, plenty of space. Food was delicious and good choice. Beautiful scenery and beaches.

Overall a great experience,, only disappointment was when I checked out I settled my bill and then another €18.00 was taken from my account It may not seem like much but that incident casts a shadow of doubt on the experience and I’m afraid I wouldn’t be comfortable returning,, it’s a pity but in today’s technology mistakes like that shouldn’t occur
