Stayed here in January 2025 for two nights just after New Year's. Fantastic hotel! Where to begin... so cozy, very homely feel to the place, staff are incredible (really friendly, very good service). The food is so nice here, I had the black pudding starter one night and the calamari another night. For main course I had the beef, so nice, literally falling off the fork, cooked really nicely. Also, one of my favourite things they serve here is the champagne sorbet, which is delicious and a beautiful pallet cleanser between starter and main course. Another thing is the service is excellent here, did not have to wait long at all for any of our food (unlike some other places!). As for our room, it was really comfortable. I loved the carpet. The mattress was lovely, and my bed was very cozy. We had a lovely view of the gardens and of Clifden Town. The room was at a perfect temperature, not too hot, not too cold. I got two very good night's sleep. The best thing about this hotel, however is the craic and the ceol that takes place here every night! There's a lovely, intimate bar downstairs with a gorgeous turf fire. Before dinner the owner will give an interesting talk about the history of the hotel and of Clifden itself. After dinner we headed down to the bar, and what a lovely surprise to find one of the hotel's owners sitting at the piano (which was a nice baby grand, btw) and singing! This is something that you don't find in many hotels in Ireland. We were up till all hours, having the best craic ever! This was my second time staying in this hotel, and I'll definitely be back. I would highly recommend this place if you're planning on visiting Clifden, and if you're not... well you should, just to experience the Abbeyglen at least once!!
