We enjoyed our stay at the Ardulain very much. The location was great. The room comfortable with large bathroom. The leisure club facilities were excellent and locker rooms clean and stocked with hairdryers. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet daily. The grounds are lovely. And staff were pleasant and helpful.

6/10 Good

Nice antiquated hotel in Galway. Away from the city center, so it was nice and quiet. The rooms were spacious, we had a bed each for the kids, so as a family of 4 we could stay comfortably for 2 nights. However, everything is dated, the swimming pool is nice, but old and had an pool stench, nothing too bad, but you could sense it. Breakfast was nice and basic. It was a little pricey considering how dated everything was, in its heydays this must have been a pretty luxurious place.

My husband and I stayed at The Ardilaun for six nights and it was the one of the best experiences we've had when travelling. The rooms were immaculate and spacious. The staff were very warm and hospitable. The Bistro Bar was my husband's favourite as he watched the World Cup games there while having a pint of Guinness. All in all, 10/10 for The Ardilaun for us! We would love to go back.

Would highly recommend this hotel. The staff was incredible- above and beyond- I wish I got the name of the girl working the 2 nights I was there she was great. We utilized the laundry service, which was simple and convenient. £25 a bag. The breakfast was just what you’d expect from a hotel breakfast. The pool was nice- I do wish there was more space to just relax in the pool when I went it was set up for las only- but that might have been the timing. Bistro restaurant was pretty good!
