Reviews and Ratings
The hotel boasts a fantastic location with a great view over the hills, perfect for relaxation and enjoying nature. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, though they feel a bit dated. The staff is incredibly friendly and efficient, making the service top-notch. However, I did notice that the dining options could be improved to elevate the overall experience.
The hotel had a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere with a lovely sea view. While the rooms were clean and generally comfortable, a strange green light issue detracted from the overall experience. The staff was genuinely friendly and willing to help, making my stay enjoyable. However, the dining experience fell short with limited breakfast options, which was a bit disappointing.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the plus side, it was very clean and in an excellent location right by the beach, which was perfect for some peace and quiet. However, the room had a strange green light that I couldn't turn off, which was pretty annoying. The staff was friendly and welcoming throughout my stay, which definitely added to the experience.
The hotel is a decent choice with spacious rooms and a friendly staff that made me feel welcome. However, I did find the lighting in the room a bit too much at times and the heating needed to be adjusted each day. The location is excellent for relaxing and exploring Achill Island, as it's close to a beautiful beach. Overall, it offers good value for money, but there are a few areas that could use improvement.
The hotel has an excellent location, close to the beach and restaurants, which I really appreciated. My room was spacious and clean with a lovely view, but the eerie green light above the bed was a bit strange. The staff was incredibly friendly and efficient, which added to my positive experience. However, I found the dining options a little underwhelming, especially considering the room price.
