Ballycastle Vacations from $1,084

Convenient location

The hotel room was very clean and modern. The staff were very pleasant. I recommend staying here.

Stayed here for a week as a base to mooch around Mayo where my family roots are. Hotel decor is a little tired here and there but that did not affect our enjoyment or not make hotel VFM. Lots of friendly local/Irish staff, which I think helps to add warmth to the atmosphere and is perhaps unusual for this size of hotel - perhaps because of Westport’s size? Food is great. Had been meaning to climb Croagh Patrick for a while and finally got round to it this time. This is not for the feint-hearted and is very long and steep - no one mentioned this to me before - maybe because it’s a pilgrimage/penance thing - it’s not meant to be easy. But it’s near enough a scramble in places - never come across a ‘tourist’ track so challenging before. Pick a good day weather-wise, dress appropriately and take plenty of water. If you’ve got sticks use them. Some climbers were rocking up looking as if they’d just stepped out of the pub - this hill needs a bit more respect than that imho. Mayo is my favourite place in the world - enjoy! Slan.

Good stay for 2 nights. Small double bed and room small for rate we paid. Bit disappointed in room size bearing in mind what we paid. Hot tap very noisy at sink. Cooked Irish breakfast dry and bit overcooked but breakfast on second morning was fabulous. We had poached eggs and salmon from menu. Reception and housekeeping team friendly and good/efficent. Leisure staff very professional and friendly. Lovely gardens and grounds. Good location. Beautiful hotel.
