An old school hotel in the middle of Connemara. This was our second time staying the Cashel House Hotel and we have enjoyed both times. The cost is a bit pricey but worth it. The rooms are large with nice sitting areas. There's a small but well-appointed bar, and the restaurant serves outstanding food.
Beautifully maintained charming older building, everything in our room was top notch and so comfortable. Amazing landscaped and planted grounds, many nooks and crannies to explore inside and out. Remote location but drivable to many sites.
The most lovely place with the most excellent service of all the hotels we stayed in Ireland. Will definitely return! The gardens are beautiful and location was convenient for sites we wanted to see.
Refreshing to stay in a unique property like this as a nice break from sterile, chain hotels. We had a very spacious room with a cozy, traditional feel and a lovely view. Nice touches like a towel warmer, tea setting etc.
Stayed at the hotel with 4 friends. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable . The staff were very friendly and attentive. Excellent menu in the dining room. Car parking was great with EV charging available.
Would highly recommend to others.

avoid - uncomfortable mattress, fire alarm went off around midnight in the rooms, terribly rude manager
We and our two little dogs had a wonderful stay. The hotel and grounds are beautiful. Our room was spacious and clean. As its an old building the plumbing isnt always great so water pressure for showers is not great. The staff are all so friendly and helpful. We had the delicious breakfast every morning and it was lovely to be abe to take those beautiful walks with amazing sea views.
Five hurrahs! We booked at the Cashel House because of our lovely memories of our first stay in 2019. Thus classic hotel is a stately and comfortable building surrounded by luscious gardens in a gorgeous part of western and wild County Galway. The dining room offers very limited menu of the most freshly prepared foods served by an attentive staff. Lots of nice coastline, abbeys, and remote valleys within easy reach.
This property is so elegant and historical. It felt like I had entered into another age. The surrounding area and gardens are filled with beautiful flowers and wildlife. We spent half the day at the small inlet across the road from the hotel and watched the tide come in and then went for a swim.

The stay was comfortable and the gardens lovely. The drinks and barstaff great, reception great and friendly with advice on sight seeing.
The room was comfortable and clean. There was a broken window pane and the furnishings were dated.
Bed comfortable.
The food was disappointing. I had a seafood chowder which was pretty good and the fish tasted fresh. the main was a steak that looked pale and was not cooked with lots of fat and gristle, the vegetables were overcooked. The desert tasted OK but was again a victim of being left under a heat lamp for too long.
My colleague had salmon and vegetables. Again overcooked and vegetables soggy and drained of colour, salmon was dry.
Breakfast was again a victim of being overcooked and scorched under a heat lamp.
Food overall disappointing for a hotel known for its fine cuisine.
Location is wonderful.
This property is in an excellent location with beautiful gardens. I must mention the excellent staff. They were knowledgeable, friendly and respectful. I hope to return again. Bedrooms might need a little updating in soft furnishings.Lounge library dining room etc were beautifully furnished.Good food and excellent wine list. Gillian
