10/10 Exceptional

This was a great stay! Being a castle and older building, we weren’t sure how modern the facilities would be but we were pleasantly surprised to find a room which blended the charm and heritage of the castle, with everything you need today. Pianos throughout were a great touch too!

10/10 Exceptional

We had an amazing time visiting the Abbeyglen Castle! Everyone there was very helpful and went above and beyond to help make our stay even better. The story time in bar and live music were a lot of fun and the dinner was delicious. Couldn’t recommend this place more, would definitely come back!
Taylor, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A wonderful time in a beautiful castle.

Ronan and the crew at the Abbeyglen couldnt have been more fun, attentive, and welcoming. I felt more welcome there than i do in family member's homes. The grounds were beautiful and the 6:30 champagne toast with the story of Clifden was worth the trip alone. Anytime I am in Ireland, I will definitely be making a stop here. You absolutely have to try the Homemade Berry Meringue Roulade.

6/10 Good

Change ?

The hotel is lovely but somewhat dated. The decor has not changed in probably 30 years which in some aspects is ok. The breakfast choices and layout needs updating The staff are terrific and could not do enough. Dinner was disappointing in small portions and boring vegetable choices.

Une vie de château !

Un hôtel à faire ! L’impresssion d’être hors du temps, au calme. Une équipe aux petits oignons ! Je recommande les yeux fermés !
