Have stayed many places around Clifden, really like the Station House. It's affordable and great service, with a cracking breakfast. Rooms are always clean and spacious, and the service of each department is spot on. When we left at 5am on our last trip, the night porter ensured we had a lovely take away coffee for our journey to Knock. It's just a great hotel in a great location.

The Abbeyglen Castle Hotel has luxurious rooms in a castle with authentic old-world charm, plus delicious food and excellent customer service—but never mind. None of that is what we’ll remember from this trip. What we’ll remember is the absolutely magical experience of mingling with the other guests after dinner in the pub. The family that runs this rather large hotel takes the virtue of hospitality very seriously, and they draw almost every guest into the one-night community of the Abbeyglen Castle. I’m sure they work very hard at it, but they make it seem effortless so I’m equally sure it is a labor of love. It began at dinner, and it lasted for a solid five or six hours after that—five or six of the best hours I’ve ever spent at any hotel anywhere, and in nearly sixty years on the planet I’ve been in quite a few hotels. I see a bad review below, complaining about the music and laughter coming from the pub. As a foreign traveler myself, I would like to say to other foreign travelers (1) if you don’t want to meet any Irish people, maybe don’t come to Ireland; and (2) if you do come to Ireland even though you don’t want to meet Irish people, please stay someplace other than the Abbeyglen, because the magic will be wasted on you and you’ll only be taking up space in a bed meant for someone else. But for the rest of the readers—for most of us—I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

Celebrating 40 years of welcoming guests as friends, the Ardagh is now in the third generation of the Bauvet/Berings family. Old fashioned rest, relaxation & the best food Connemara has to offer. One of the last small, family run hotels in Ireland. What was originally a quaint fishing lodge is now the 20 bedrooms of a four star establishment. The Ardagh has been lovingly restored into an unfussy, intimate hotel with individually styled guest rooms. Set on 6 acres of food and wild floral gardens offering both views of Connemara’s land and seascapes.
Absolutely superb from the moment we arrived until we left. This was our second stay, having had a wonderful time previously, it is a place that we were very excited to return to. The hotel is beautifully located with very comfortable rooms overlooking Clifden Bay and its magnificent sunsets. Every member of the team are so welcoming and friendly but very professional. The service was fantastic. Dining in the Ardagh is an absolute treat. There is an extensive menu of wonderful local seafood, meats and homegrown vegetables. This is high end dining at its best. Perfectly cooked and presented. The only difference between Ardagh and other fine dining establishments is that the portions are huge! We ate there for 4 nights and our only regret was not tasting everything on the menu. A well chosen and reasonably priced wine list accompanies the amazing food. Cannot wait to return next year. A true treat worth waiting for. Thank you all in the Ardagh

Quiet!! The lodge is an easy 10 minute walk from town and restaurants etc. Our bus driver from Galway dropped us off at the lodge. It is up hill if coming from town with luggage, so check with owners if you need a pickup in town. LOVED this place.

One of Connemara’s longest established hotels trading since 1836 and owned by the Foyles for nearly a century.Foyle’s Hotel is situated in the centre of Clifden and is an ideal central point for exploring Connemara.The Hotel’s old world elegance and atmosphere have been gracefully retained through recent renovations, each room being individually decorated and furnished with charm and warmth.The Foyles and their staff offer you a warm welcome and will be happy to assist you in enjoying the area.
My friend and I stayed here for 2 nights May 22. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the family touch is very evident. The food in Marconi Restaurant exceed our expectations and is well worth booking. The breakfast freshly cooked, delicious and served promptly to your table. Our twin room was huge and had every amenity. The carpets and furniture are a little dated but overall we were extremely impressed.

Yeah what can I say a B&B with no breakfast which certainty leaves paying a premium price for a room ! Fantastic location just on the outskirts of the town within very easy walking distance to town centre. Room was specious and clean. Plenty of parking facilities.
