Good location in town and comfortable room. Staff very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast. Liked the traditional shop at the entrance - lots of character.
The Ritz House House is located in Lisdoonvarna town centre and is a family owned accommodation just a 10-minutes drive from the Cliffs of Moher, Doolin Village, the Aillwee Caves and Birds of Prey,...

The staff were very welcoming and attentive. The room had everything you needed and was extremely clean .
The food was excellent, and even had music on that evening.
In the centre of Lisdoonvarna, the small, family-run Royal Spa Hotel is at the gateway to Ireland’s National Park, the Burren.

DIDNT LIKE !
We booked and paid for B&B, told on checking in breakfast began at 8 30!
We needed to be gone next morning by 8am
The lady on reception said she would be there so we could at least have a cup of tea and toast/ boiled egg , we didn't want a full Irish.
We were doing a 10k mini marathon starting at 9 am
Came down to find everything locked and nobody around
We left out key on the reception counter , next to another set of keys that were also left.
We paid for breakfast but had to go across the road to a shop to get tea & a roll
SHOULD BE DIDNT LIKE!

The location is excellent for visiting the cliffs. The breakfast and servers in restaurant were great

We would have stayed in Doolin if we would have known there wasn’t traditional music as advertised at our hotel. It was the whole reason we stayed there and the music was in Doolin, not Lisdoonvarna.
The tourist economy is extremely competitive. Tourists want to see quaint and experience attractions in the short time they are traveling through a community. It’s expensive for a city to provide those kinds of things that demanding travelers want. Perhaps a regional travel organization can increase collaboration among communities to set the stage for regional success, not just success for Doolin.

Did not explore Lisdoonvarna itself too much but it would have been worth a day or two, just too much other stuff pre-planned. Was a great base to the Burren, Doolin, Cliffs of Mohr, Aran islands ferry.

Live music at the Ritz, however all the large hotels were shut to the public as they were being used to house refugees. Absolutely no problem with that use but they surly could allow the public access to the restaurants coffee shops etc as without this there were only limited facility in the town.

Considering that it is a tourist destination, it is quiet shabby I thought. The town coucil (like many others in Clare) should consider a factfinding trip to the likes of Westport to see how a tourist town SHOULD look like.
The "What would you recommend Lisdoonervarna for" sectoin is challenging "Its central position in North West Clare and the roads out of it" was not an option..

We went for the festival which we went to every year before Covid and I am sorry to say it was not as it usually is. All of the hotels were closed which was a major disappointment. Thankfully the Ritz still serves great food but the Matchmaker bar which is usually excellent was closed along with a lot more.
I am afraid we will not be going back and this saddens me as the festival was usually hopping.

We loved Lisdoonvarna.
We loved Lisdoonvarna. The town is small but lively and we really enjoyed the Ritz House Hotel. First, they were very kind, with free Wi-Fi available in the bar. We had an excellent dinner there, with great food, service and atmosphere. We wished we had booked to stay there!
We used the trip as a point for visiting the Aran Islands from nearby Doolin. This worked very well and we had a wonderful day out there, in the care of Doolin Ferries.
I was travelling with other two friends by bus through main tourist sites in Ireland. Initially we didn't know where to stay, but when we saw the Greenlawn Lodge was an option, we booked it without hesitating! It was the best choice ever! Excellent location, beautiful house and rooms and, last but not least, amazing staff - Everything exceeded our expectations! Patricia was super kind, made us feel at home and gave us the best recommendations for our stay. Thank you so much Patricia & team! We had the best time with you :)
This is a delightful, slightly antiquated hotel in the centre of Lisdoonvarna. Lynn and John made us very welcome and were always very friendly and helpful with plenty of guidance about where to visit and where to eat in the vicinity. We had a large, light, high-ceilinged room with plenty of storage space. Breakfast was good, with a fair range of choices.
Greeted at check in by John, who took the time to show the room and explain the amenities available. Delicious traditional Irish breakfast cooked by his wife Anne, with options for cereals, fruits, cheeses, yogurts. John also recommended the best pub in Dingle for food and music. Close to Dingle, but far enough to avoid the tour buses.
we arrived and were told we could only pay in cash - said our visa didn’t go through? this made no sense and we felt very uncomfortable and decided to leave and the host was upset. There was nothing wrong with our credit card as we used it at the hotel we ended up staying at. Room was not appealing and the whole experience was unsettling
I thought the common spaces were charming and it’s good for families with a lot of kids because the room had beds for all four of them. The staff was very nice and the other guests were too. I love Ireland and love this little town and I hope that somehow the hotel can be updated and get the support it needs to be all that it can be.
Our stay at the Imperial Hotel was perfect. David checked us in & looked after us on our return later in the night. All the staff including bar staff were very friendly & couldn’t do enough for us. Breakfast was very tasty, service was excellent. I highly recommend staying here & we will definitely be back again.
Very comfortable, clean apartment with everything there that was needed/wanted. Secure parking onsite very good. Right in the heart of Lisdoonvarna, so easy walk to hotels and bars. Short drive to Doolin where you can get a ferry to visit Aran Islands, well worth a visit.
We've slept in three different B&B in one week (family road trip) and Elements B&B really exceeded our expectations, and also competition ! It feels like a 4 star hotel ! Keith & Christina are lovely people, rooms are so comfy, and the breakfast is magical.
Perfect location with beautiful facilities. Best part was the hospitality of the hosts who bent over backwards to help us with anything we needed. We were traveling on bicycles in the rain so he graciously dried our clothes!
Simply perfect, the suite was so very comfortable bathroom spotlessly clean, decor fabulous and spacious too. The breakfast was simply sublime Best in Ireland no doubt about it! Mary an excellent hostess🇮🇪👌
The apartment was super spacious and well appointed. We were impressed with the comfort of the beds and the linens. It was conveniently located, and walkable to local restaurants and pubs.
Lovely staff, very friendly and welcoming. Clean and comfortable room. Great location in the centre of town. Good car park to the rear of the hotel. Fantastic breakfast in the morning.
Nice clean & comfortable room, nice owners & close to the town of Lisdoonvarna. It was convenient for our visit to Inishmor one day and the Burren the next day.
This was a friendly family run hotel. The rooms were spotless. Dinner was very good and we were served by three or four of the family-excellent service.
Very good location, good price deal, very friendly owner, the tavern downtown made us have the best evening during our Ireland trip so this is thumbs up!!
The rooms are small, but the hospitality was excellent. Breakfast was great. Innkeepers were very nice to open their hotel for us during their off season.
