"Comfortable stay in a large clean room run by a local pub. We stayed in the adjoining building so it was quiet but we were able to stop in for a night cap with the locals before need. It was also nice to have free parking behind the pub."

It was raining (go figure) and we just got back from eating dinner. The Help asked us if we wanted anything and got us baileys and we spent time by the fire. Very nice. Breakfast was awesome. Was sorry to see the evening help leave and not be there in the morning but Kitty was there to serve breakfast and help with checkout. If you want hustle and bustle and rude waitstaff you’ve gone to the wrong place. We went to the cliffs and Aron island afterwards and wanted to go back but it didn’t fit...

Just an overall beautiful property and experience. The proprietary and staff were kind and hospital. One of those properties that transcend just a building and bed. Highly recommend.

The most hospitable and gracious hosts! This family was born for the hospitality industry. I would plan a visit around their place it’s so beautiful and serene.

This place was amazing and so glad we took a chance with no posted reviews. I will say the only down side is the two twin beds were not separated when looking at pictures provided.

Mark was very kind to help us with minor issues we had getting into the property. It is VERY well appointed and the breakfast was fantastic! What was particularly nice was the spacious 'dining room' with an amazing rooftop patio. It was raining when we were there so didn't really get to go out on the patio, but we decided to stay in and enjoyed the dining room/ lounge.
I would stay here again and recommend. Our apartment was on the third floor, so mind the stairs but we are seniors and...

Fantastic stay for our family. The owner, Scott, was a perfect host and made us feel welcome. The food was excellent and the rooms well maintained and clean. It was an ideal location too for any site seeing near Galway. Highly recommended. We'll be back!

Aoife and her husband Seamus are ably assisted by their son Dermot in keeping this excellent hotel at the top of the list for places to stay - and eat - in the area near Ballybunion & Tralee. The fact that this family-run hotel is a wedge to the clubhouse at Ballybunion Golf Club is another plus.
If you have tried the best, why try the rest?

This is our second time at this establishment. Very clean and up-to-date cottage. The shower was wonderful and the bed, comfortable. Very quiet area on a working farm with cows & sheep.

We had the best time! Malahide is a beautiful area with delicious restaurants. The staff was welcoming and everything was clean. We will totally stay there again when in the Dublin area.

We stayed on the 6th night of an 8 day trip around Ireland. We had seen a profile about Ballymaloe house on CBS Sunday Morning and we were not disappointed. The grounds are great, the rooms classic with great comfort and the staff is wonderful. The meals were absolutely top notch, and we got a private look at the wine cellar, and my wife learned how to bake Irish Soda Bread in their kitchen. I highly recommend anyone going to Ireland to experience this great property.

We had a lovely stay at Firecastle. Kildare is a magical area with lots to do and see in walking distance. The room we stayed in was beautiful and well appointed, breakfast was delicious and the staff were all really nice. I highly recommend Firecastle.

What a wonderful find! We needed to stay overnight between Cork and Waterford. Booked this at the last minute. It is beautifully located convenient to Cork City and County Waterford just across the bridge from the beach town of Youghal. friendly hosts who recommended one of the best seafood restaurants we've experienced (Ahearne). very comfortable , spacious room with gorgeous view. Superb full breakfast. We will be back!

The Ariel House had it all - a room three times larger than I was expecting, a breakfast fit for kings and queens, and of course, a staff that was willing to go above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. They even picked up our dry cleaning from the washer down the street! You get to know everyone there by name.
My favorite part was arriving, feeling disheveled, and immediately being offered coffee and a scone. They've got snacks and tea and coffee available throughout the day and into...
