This place was amazing and so glad we took a chance with no posted reviews. I will say the only down side is the two twin beds were not separated when looking at pictures provided.

Ann and Michael were wonderful host. Thier bed & breakfast was amazing and beautifully decorated with a relaxing atmosphere. They are located right on the edge of the town of Oranmore about a 10 minute walk into town & about a 10 minute drive to Galway. Thanks Ann & Michael for your hospitality and delicious breakfast, especially the scones!!

Fantastic stay for our family. The owner, Scott, was a perfect host and made us feel welcome. The food was excellent and the rooms well maintained and clean. It was an ideal location too for any site seeing near Galway. Highly recommended. We'll be back!

Stunning apartment. The pictures online don't really show what a beautiful place this is or what a great location. The only issue we had was that our reservation code didn't work so we had a hard time with the automated check in. We did finally get a call back and they were able to help us get checked in. There is not enough parking for everyone, but we were able to park outside the gate both nights with no issues. The door keys will time out at 10:00 am so if you are not completely out you...

The Kinvara Guesthouse is a jewel. It's big-city lodging in a small, cozy Irish town. It's the kind of town one sees in Irish travel books and brochures. Parking is available in front of the guesthouse, on the street, essentially. They have an elevator (lift) which was a big help for my wife (and me with our luggage). We had a huge room on the second floor with a view of the "plaza" in front of the guesthouse. The bathroom was more than adequate. Our only complaint is that there were no wash...

This is a stunning property with very professional and friendly staff. There is a beautiful perimeter walk on property, around the golf course and grounds which can include the lake (~1.2-1.5 mile circuit). The food in Palmer’s bar was fine, we liked the chicken supreme quite a bit and the wait staff, especially Derry, was wonderful. Lovely nooks like you’ll find in the lounge are perfect for reading and having tea. Breakfast was an amazing and almost decadent experience. Three downsides to be...

The property is being redone throughout since early summer. There is no staff on the premise so when I had an issue of a lost key there was no help. Thankfully it was found and I was able to get into my room. It is very modern, but very picturesque and very quiet.

This is about the most delightful bed-and-breakfast anywhere. Maura and Michael are a delight, and the property is conveniently situated in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. We would happily return to this wonderful place!

We had a wonderful stay. The bed was comfortable and room clean with all the necessary amenities. The hotel has a huge restaurant and Irish bar with many different rooms and 2 levels to accommodate all types of clientele! They had live music and the performances were amazing! The best part was the customer service provided with care, kindness, enthusiasm and pure happiness, always quick with help and a smile from their employee Niall, he was such a pleasure! Thank you Niall! :)

We stayed here for 2 nights for a portion of our honeymoon. From the start, we loved everything about it. Staff were super friendly and helpful with check in, and then will drawing on a map for us to help us find things to do in Galway. The included breakfast was really good. The West restaurant (upstairs) was a little too fancy for us, so we ended up eating down the street at O'Grady's on the Pier. It was amazing seafood. The other restaurant on site is really good for drinks and more...
