Loved the quaint little town and the shops, restaurants and pubs available to us. Also, the grocery store was very well stocked and the SPAR there had laundry facilities that we so badly needed to use.

Plenty of excellent restaurants in Clifden from mid-price to expensive. Great coffee and snacks available at very reasonable prices. Good shopping and excellent craft/art/souvenir shops in the town. Beautiful Church with small but sincere congregation. Lovely clean town, adequate parking available.

There is so much to see. I'm a walker and we were able to access many great walks - mountain, sea and forest walks. We had a car to get to locations. Good location for exploring Connemara. Fabulous scenery. Plenty places to eat in the evenings.

A beautiful area in the National Park.
A beautiful area in the National Park. The little town centre was quite vibrant for such a remote area and lots of independent cafes and shops It was possible to do manageable walks (even for us oldies)

Cliftden was great with plenty of places to eat and drink.
Cliftden was great with plenty of places to eat and drink. There is a very well stocked supermarket in the town and the surroundings were very clean and well maintained. Getting a local taxi was a bit of a problem so we had to drive everywhere, which didn't allow us to have a drink in the town as our accommadation was about 3 miles outside the village.
I’m so thankful there was a room available! I happened to book the morning prior to my stay- I was really winging it on this trip. I love my stay at the Old Exchange. Clifden was one of my favorite stops on my vacation. Mari was great…super hospitable but not helicoptering. She has a sweet dining area that I met a few other guests in, and had some great conversation. It’s close enough to everything happening in the immediate town area…the room was quiet, comfortable, cute! 10/10 would & will stay again!
I wish all BnBs in Ireland represent same standard as Clifden Coach House! The minute you walk in, Izabella welcomes you the way if you were not a tourist but a family member :) She's an absolute delight to deal with. The place is modern, clean and tidy with decent bedrooms and comfortable beds. Bathroom was spotless and well equipped with all you need. Location is just perfect 5min away from the town square. Amazing variety for Breakfast including best pancakes I had in a while! We will be back!
I can’t say enough good things about this property! The location is perfect in Clifden within walking distance of everything. Desmond, the host is exceptional and one of the kindest people I have met in my travels! He gave us directions to a more scenic route which we took and saw some of the best views. And the breakfast is amazing! You really can’t find a better place especially for the price. I will definitely stay there again when I’m back in Ireland. Slainte
Staff very friendly. Great location except parking can be awkward. We were lucky to get a space outside on the road which was free from 6pm to 11am. Probably the best value hotel in Clifden as it was a busy time in August. At its best when their restaurant is serving food. Was closed due to Covid restrictions.
Beds very comfortable. Continental breakfast very nice.
We loved the personal family vibe to the hotel which was encapsulated by the personal greeting given by the family dog Roxy in the lobby each day. The breakfast was excellent. Service was excellent and just really enjoyed our stay here. Would highly recommend staying at this hotel for anyone staying in the Clifden area.
Sharamore House is a beautiful property located a few miles outside Clifden on the main road. The property is very pretty, and our room was spacious, with a bay window overlooking Omey Island. The bed was extremely comfortable, and we wish we had been able to stay for more than one night. Clifden is a lovely town.
We have been visiting Clifden, Ballyconeely now for 40 years. This is the first time we've stayed in Station House. Would highly recommend. Great breakfast, great dinner in the Signal House restaurant opposite. Clifden itself is a lovely town in a superb location. Bonus for me - EV charger right beside the hotel
We loved everything about this place, especially Federique whose kindness and hospitality made us feel welcome from the moment she opened the door. Clifden Bay Lodge was clean, modern and our room a fair size with a brilliantly comfortable bed - the best couple of nights sleep in our road trip of Ireland.
Very nice B&B within about a 10 minute walk to the heart of Clifden. Very nice rooms, super clean, and staff on hand for an issues. They provide a coupon for a 10 euro Full Irish Breakfast at a hotel with a kitchen closer to Clifden, which was appreciated.
Beautifully presented accommodation in a scenic setting. Only a short drive further to one of the best views in Galway. Similar distance in the opposite direction to Clifden town centre. Ideal venue for touring Connemara.
This is the second time I have stayed at Ardagh Hotel. The hotel has everything you need, is in a fantastic location and best of all is the staff's attention to detail. The food was also superb.
We stayed in BnB's almost exclusively during our 2 weeks in Ireland and the Buttermilk was hands down the best of all. The room was lovely, breakfast out of this world and easy walk to town.
The location is great. Only a short walk into clifden town. Amazing hosts and the place was immaculate. Couldnt have asked for anything more. Great for a couples retreat.
