We always wanted to stay in a castle. This beautiful place was the best stop to take my wife for Mothers Day. I surprised to see the restaurant is so elegant. The meal choices were awesome and prepared right. I hope someday to return.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Abbeyglen Castle Hotel. We were warmly greeted at reception by the owner, who provided us with champagne in the evening along with fascinating insights into the castle's history. Our dinner experience was delightful, complemented by engaging entertainment, and the breakfast was truly exceptional. We also appreciated the atmosphere of the piano bar following dinner. Our accommodations were outstanding and beautifully suited to the castle's character.

We had an amazing time visiting the Abbeyglen Castle! Everyone there was very helpful and went above and beyond to help make our stay even better. The story time in bar and live music were a lot of fun and the dinner was delicious. Couldn’t recommend this place more, would definitely come back!

Unique Experience

The hotel was a bit hard to get to with luggage and no taxi service but once we arrived there were no complaints. The staff was friendly and check in was very quick. The room was great, the food superb and the complimentary champagne and history lesson was very interesting and much appreciated.

A wonderful time in a beautiful castle.

Ronan and the crew at the Abbeyglen couldnt have been more fun, attentive, and welcoming. I felt more welcome there than i do in family member's homes. The grounds were beautiful and the 6:30 champagne toast with the story of Clifden was worth the trip alone. Anytime I am in Ireland, I will definitely be making a stop here. You absolutely have to try the Homemade Berry Meringue Roulade.

Terrific property with very hospitable host. Huge lovely room. Short on amenities - no bath soap/body wash, tissues, robes, slippers. Unfortunately, noisy guests partying until after 1am. Early start meant no breakfast available

Every part of our stay was magical. We arrived late but a beautiful note with the key was left at the front desk!! Had a wonderful time at the pub and Brian greeted us the next morning at breakfast with 'where were you guys we missed you'!! Would recommend everyone to stay here when visiting the area.

La vie de château

Accueil parfait dans un château, ancienne abbaye, ancien orphelinat. De l'arrivée, au restaurant et à la chambre tout est précis et bien ordonné. Les cheminées flambent dans les salons et au bar. Les repas servis au restaurant sont succulents, tant au petit-déjeuner qu'au dinner. Le parc, surmonté par une fontaine et avec son gazon de golf, descend jusqu'à la mer. Le plus, le patron de l'hôtel qui accueille tous ses clients par une invitation au bar avec les boissons offertes et un historique complet du château et des environs. Juste parfait, la vie de château !
