Abbeyglen Castle Hotel

Perfect location to walk to Connemara. Beautiful gardens and rooms! Exterior is true castle

第一次是六年前服務質量都非常好， 所以新冠之後來到愛爾蘭首選就是它， 可惜這一次的整個感覺和第一次差遠了，比較失望☹️…… 首先房間裏面的無線網常常中斷或者是沒信號。打電話和前台聯繫給到我們的回覆，居然是説在鄉村裡信號不好。現在科技已經那麼發達了，這樣的理由實在太牽強了。 其次是房間裏沒有飲用水沒有了， 請服務員送水，結果服務員讓我們自己去拿，這是一個星級的酒店該有的服務嗎？ 理解店家用手寫的菜單來表示他們的高大上，可是整個菜單的字體讓人非常難於閲讀， 密密麻麻的，看的人頭暈。不是那種讓人舒服，明瞭的字體和排版。 既然是城堡酒店，就應該能夠讓人周圍走一走。 六年前是可以的，現在很多地方都圍了門欄。根本無法去走看。

We spent 3 nights at the hotel. OUr first visit to the area and to the hotel. We were impressed with both. We loved the hotel. Excellent food, Friendly helpful staff. Lovely room with comfortable bed and lovely bed linen. Location. Welcome talk and reception is definately worth attending. Cannot think of any negative to say about our stay. We would definately highly recommend this hotel to our friends. Thank you for making our stay at the hotel and in Clifden memorable

Once again we would like to thank you for the wonderful time we had in your beautiful hotel "The Quay House" 26-27.04.2024. We enjoyed very much your care and company and the interest you show for all your guests! You live up to the true Irish friendliness. The breakfast was simply second to none. It is a very special hotel in Ireland that we would like to visit every time we go back there, especially because of the Toby Pat and Julia family, wonderful people.

We've never stayed at a castle & thought Abbeyglen might be fun. With no great expectations, we ended up loving Abbeyglen Castle! Room was comfortable & clean, nice breakfast too. Brian was a knowledgeable and wonderful host. We enjoyed the history of the hotel & Brian at the piano got everyone singing & having a great time. Walk the Sky Road loop - amazing views and lots of cute farm animals.

I stayed there with my husband and my sister and her husband. We all thought what a strange place it was. I would use the term “castle” very loosely to describe it. Inside it was totally dated and felt very old fashioned but not in a good way. I’m not sure of the significance of the 6.30pm glass of Prosecco. We were kept hanging around for it for ages and it was just really a self serving talk by the owner. The menu was extremely over priced for what was on offer. It’s never good when the menu prices are nowhere to be seen online prior to your arrival. Luckily the hotel was only a few minutes walk from Clifden, there were better dinner options to be found there. No nightly music as the musician was ill, but obviously that can happen. The hotel sounded so much better than what it actually delivered. It seems to be primarily aimed at foreign tourists who will fall for the faux Irish bonhomie.

To say my visit to Abbeyglen Castle Hotel was awesome would be an understatement. Owners and brothers Brian and Ronan Hughes were the ultimate hosts!! From the arrival Prosecco reception in the pub to hear some hotel history and local folklore to the stunning and delicious meals which were included in my rate plan. My room was huge, comfortable and clean with the perfect view. Evenings spent in their pub which included lively piano entertainment, sometimes even owner Brian singing and tickling the keys. It's the type of place where you literally don't want to leave the property and just enjoy exploring the interior or exterior grounds or sitting around the fire with a pint. But you will want to get out because the location is great...walking distance to the town of Clifden, a short drive to the Clifden Castle ruins and not far from Kylemore Abbey (a must see) or to drive the Sky Road Loop (stunning views). This was my 6th visit to Ireland and not only did I fall more in love with the Connemara area but I also found a spot at the Abbeyglen Castle Hotel that I hope to visit time and time again. I spent 20 years in the hospitality industry and if you looked up the definition of that word you would find a picture of Brian and Ronan. They were up early with their guests at breakfast and mingling with everyone at dinner and even after making sure everyone's stay and experience was top notch...and usually calling everyone by name. I can't recommend this place enough and I can't wait to go back, they truly made me feel like family.

This is a hidden gem. We were told about AbbeyGlen by both family and friends that we would thoroughly enjoy the place and we did. We did include both dinner and breakfast and we were not disappointed. Our only regret was that we only stayed one night. Do not miss the Prosecco reception. Brian the hotelier made us feel like we were old friends.

We had a wonderful stay. A beautiful room, excellent bathroom (nice roll top bath and good shower. A very good quality breakfast. At 18:30 there’s a sparkling wine reception, where the owner talks about the local history, which great entertainment and interesting.
