"We had an absolutely wonderful one-night stay at Armada House! The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. The decor was absolutely fantastic, with so much character and thoughtful design throughout the property. We also had dinner at Aileen’s Restaurant at the nearby Armada Hotel, and the food was amazing! It was the perfect way to end our evening on the west coast of Ireland.

"Wonderful stay with such hospitable hosts. Would recommend 10/10, especially given the walk ability and close proximity to the downtown street with plenty of bars, pubs, and restaurants"

"The Hedgerow was a very nice place to stay for a couple of nice. The room was bright and very modern. The shower was very big and wonderful. It was close to many towns close by with restaurants, stores, pubs, beaches. The hosts, Cillian and Sarah, were very friendly and made sure we had a great stay. I would recommend it."

"Amazing host who gave us great recommendations - she was so kind to us and the kids and provided them with games and recommendations for dinner and travel and sites . Would stay there again and we even stayed a day longer in the area as she told us so many cool things to do!"

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...

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?

The Kinvara Guesthouse is a jewel. It's big-city lodging in a small, cozy Irish town. It's the kind of town one sees in Irish travel books and brochures. Parking is available in front of the guesthouse, on the street, essentially. They have an elevator (lift) which was a big help for my wife (and me with our luggage). We had a huge room on the second floor with a view of the "plaza" in front of the guesthouse. The bathroom was more than adequate. Our only complaint is that there were no wash...

The location was phenomenal for easy access to Galway city centre. The staff was incredibly helpful.
I do wish the WiFi signal was a little stronger in our room. We had to be by the door in order to get a decent signal.

This a very quaint B&B with one of the best hot breakfasts in Ireland served on hot plates. Each room has its own boiler for unlimited hot water. The location is just minutes from Eyre Square and great shopping opportunities and even closer to the train station to Dublin. Only downside is it is a bit pricey. Great place to stay.
