    Everything! The location was great. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and homey. The breakfast in the morning was excellent. I would give this property and staff a 20 out of 10! The little town of Cong is beautiful. Highly recommend a visit. Wish would could have stayed longer.

    Everything was great for me during my stay.

    Really welcoming and friendly staff, food was delicious and home cooked. I asked for an iron as there wasn't one in the room and Martha had it waiting for me outside my room when I returned after breakfast. The bed was so comfy and everything was spotlessly clean. The room looked out onto the road and the river which I really liked, I could hear the river which only made for a relaxing nights sleep.

    No AC and unusual for Ireland to have such great weather - a fan would have been great.

    Very attentive and friendly team at Ryan's. It was very charming and the breakfast was delicious. We were at a Wedding nearby and it was perfect location. Rooms are smart and clean.

    Tiny point, getting shampoo out of those tiny, fiddly bottles is ...fiddly. Would prefer regular pump bottles. Less plastic too.

    Great location in the village. Parking right outside. Staff were super friendly, breakfast good and plentiful and the rooms were very comfortable. All good :)

    It wasn’t a problem for us but if you no longer do stairs this is not the place for you. All the accommodations are on the 2nd floor.

    The location was good for walking around Cong. It was very clean and welcoming. Nice big breakfast area and comfortable reading/relaxing area with lots of local information. Martha was very welcoming and personable. Would happily recommend her B&B.

    That we didn't stay longer!

    Ryan's River Lodge was a perfect haven for our short stay in Cong - perched right on the river and adjacent to the village centre, Abbey and Cong Woods. Martha is a lovely host who could not have been more gracious or helpful. The B&B is kept in beautiful condition and our room and bathroom were spotless, comfortable and well-equipped. The breakfast is superb and I cannot remember ever enjoying such a delicious tomato and cheese omelette! On site parking and WiFi are additional welcome perks. We will definitely return!

    I would have enjoyed chatting with our host more. But I like getting to know more about people.

    Loved the location with free off-street parking. Within walking distance of restaurants, pubs, and shopping. Our room overlooked the stream. Quaint small town atmosphere. LOVED the modern, HOT, shower. Breakfast and options were devine. Even with other guests, the room was quiet. The lodge decor was superb.

    Was our 2nd time here & it didn't disappoint. Rooms were comfortable & bathrooms were nice. I liked the night light option. Food was great & plenty of offerings along with being able to choose theday before what hot foods you wanted. Views there great & it was within walking distance of Ashford Castle grounds & trails. Situated in Cong with everything close. Riht next door to The Quiet Man museum & shop.
