"We have stayed at Currarevagh House 4 times and will definitely return! Our stay is always wonderful...perfect trip for a couple’s retreat. The Hobson family makes their home feel like your home as well. Morning breakfast buffet is perfect to start your day, Afternoon tea @ 4:30, a gourmet 5⭐️ evening meal @ 8:00 if you choose to dine in house. We enjoyed the Lough Corrib cruise where they take you across the lake to walk the Ashford Castle grounds and to tour a 5th century monastery. Check...

"The lodge is quiet!!! Our room was immaculate, the bed was very comfortable and the view of the lake from our room and the lounge was wonderful. Many thanks to our hosts, Connie and Donal, who were amazing. Breakfast was the perfect start to exploring the area. We spent time on the Aran Islands and in the fishing mecca of Oughterard. Donal and Connie know the area well and offered spot on advice and insights. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you Connie and Donal!!!"

Leonardo Hotel Galway

Leonardo Hotel Galway

5/5 Excellent
Good location
"Nice hotel on the river banks. Very close to the Latin Quarter. Lots of eating options. Very nice and clean hotel. The only issue is if you are driving your car. The parking garage next to the hotel is atrocious. (not the hotel's fault though)."
