We were in the Castle Suite and the room was spacious. We loved the restaurant. It has great food and a wonderful view. The hotel has a historic castle on it's ground and they have a tour every evening. It was quite fascinating to explore the castle and the views from the top are incredible- you can see the mountains of Connemara on one side and the Cliffs of Moher on the other side. They also grow wild flowers on the hill to support the bee population and we appreciated it.

The front desk was inconsistently attended. You had to ring the bell a couple of times and wait for someone to come.

Lovely family run establishment. We were well looked after - upgraded on arrival, and there is a fabulous restaurant and a cute little bar onsite. There is also a castle in the grounds, and at 6pm each evening the owner has a guided tour, with lots of information on the O'Brien clan and all their castles in the locality. Beautiful views of the surrounding landscape from the top of the castle. Highly recommend staying there, beautiful location, fantastic views and easy access to Doolin, the Burren and the Cliffs of Moher.

One recommendation is to update the dessert menu with gluten / allergen indicators. They seemed to have been accidentally left off, as they all featured on the main dinner and breakfast menus.

From the moment we arrived we were enchanted. The house is gorgeous and well appointed, the grounds are lovely & expansive (to include an O'Brien castle!). The owners are charming, friendly, kind & made sure that we were well taken care of. The restaurant has excellent food & wine served by professional staff. You won't need lunch after the hearty breakfast served daily. Our suite was very comfortable & had everything we needed (and more). **We also appreciated the wildflower field adjacent to the castle, planted to help the bees.** We can't wait to return.

Our stay at this hotel was an unforgettable experience. The room was beautiful, the beds incredibly comfortable, the dinner was excellent in a beautiful dining room with delicious food and a large selection of excellent Irish whiskey, the service at dinner was attentive and very nice. The breakfast was delicious and pleasant. Overall, a very romantic environment, attentive and nice staff and the owner, who prepared a private and unforgettable tour of the castle for us. We will long remember our best accommodation during our Irish road trip, and we will definitely come back here. THANK YOU

We had an absolutely lovely time here! The accommodations are wonderful, and the staff was excellent. They showed us fantastic hospitality, and we loved the tour of the castle as well! The breakfasts were excellent, and we also ate dinner at the hotel and it was amazing!

Only complaints were that the bed had a single, heavy comforter (which is pretty common in Europe), which meant it was way too hot when using it, but too cold without it. I wish they had a sheet & blanket instead of a heavy comforter.

The hotel is in a very picturesque location with a castle ruin adjacent to it. The owner gave us a tour which was an unexpected bonus. Parking is available on site. Full breakfasts are included and are very enjoyable.

The building is not designed for people with disabilities, with many stairs between the hotel lobby and the rooms. This wasn't a deal breaker for us however, there is no elevator so carrying our luggage to and from the room was a hassle. The hotel restaurant is not open on Mondays ( a fact we discovered on arrival ) so if you arrive late and are expecting a meal on that day you must travel to the nearest town. (The town is not too far away and there are several pubs that serve full dinners and play great music.)

This was a most charming hotel with beautiful traditional décor and extremely comfortable beds. The family who owned and ran the hotel were all friendly and helpful. There was even a guided tour of the Tower House (castle) in the grounds, which was very interesting (although the steep spiral staircase not for the faint-hearted or anyone with mobility issues). Dinner was extremely good (better than a Michelin starred restaurant we visited up the coast and not pretentious), as was breakfast. All in all, a place I would thoroughly recommend and very good value for money.

Nothing. But it would have been good to know in advance about the 6.30pm tour of the castle, as we very nearly missed it because we didn't know about it. Maybe we just didn't see it advertised.

Wonderful property with a great location for day trips to Cliffs of Moher, the Burren, or for visiting Doolin for shopping, the pubs with their music, or for taking the ferry to the islands. Gorgeous views out to the cliffs or across the bay to the islands or the mountains of Connemara. A special treat is having Declan give a tour of the old castle tower that is on the property, and explain the history of it with commentary the construction as well. Our room was large and comfortable, clean and well appointed. The restaurant on property is great as well, providing us with a wonderful dinner in the evening and a fabulous breakfast each morning. Super attention from everyone on property.

Nothing to dislike

The location, grounds, staff, and cuisine exceeded our expectations! Our host Daniel who was our waiter and bartender made our stay priceless the tour of the castle by his father/owner was a true treat. Cannot recommend this place more highly. ENJOY!

Charming to have arrived only to be whisked off for an intimate tour of the family castle located a few steps away. The hotel owners were graceful hosts Lovely views of the Cliffs of Mohr from our bedroom window. Excellent breakfast and dinner. Rustic bar on the premises with lively conversation and song. Conveniently located, 5 minutes from the Doolin Cave, a must-visit, and 10 minutes from the Aran Island ferries, also a must-visit, in between a string of pubs offering live music and yes, you can even have a 5 euro coffee by the local barista.
