Service was excellent and the location with the golf course and the lake beyond was wonderful. Breakfast was also the best all holiday. Staff were all brilliant. Enough said!
The property is beautiful and rooms are lovely. Only thing that could have made the stay is breakfast options and keeping buffet options filled as many options were empty bowls. (Yogurt, fruit, granola) there was also very limited staff for breakfast hours.
The doormen, especially Michael, were very helpful and insightful, as were the front desk staff. The grounds and the Abbey were beautiful. We will definitely stay here again, next trip to Galway.
From the moment we arrived until we checked out the staff were top notch. The evening movie was a nice touch. The falconry experience with Jason a highlight.
We had a wonderful day for our 10 year wedding anniversary. The staff was exceptionally friendly and kind and answered all of our questions. They made several suggestions around the surrounding areas.

Lovely hotel!
Lovely hotel..beautiful grounds and accommodations. Staff was very friendly and helpful…if you like old fashioned elegance and a beautiful golf course as well…this is your place.
Very clean, excellent service and breakfast. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable- they have great recommendations for off site excursions.
The pillows on the bed were very flat and was my only complaint.
Simply beautiful and matched by excellent service from all staff members you encounter. We arrived late and welcomed with professionalism and warmth. Rooms, linens and fixtures fittings excellent. Bar and lounge just what you need after a long day. Leo knowledge and charm behind the cocktail bar second to none and the best negroni and setting in a very long time.
Beautiful historic property that has been tastefully and carefully updated. Very clean and well maintained. The staff is superbly service oriented and friendly. The dinning options are great especially the historic pullman restaurant.
The most beautiful and idyllic property in Galway. The property is spectacularly preserved with its original grandeur with modern touches. The staff was incredible and really made our stay special. We will be back!
