    Bar could only figure out how to serve beer or whiskey. no mixed drinks or cocktails. Could have used an oscillating fan in the room, got stuffy with no circulation. No AC.

    Restaurant and Bar on property were a convenience since it was a very small town. Everyone was friendly. Lahinch on the coast would be a better choice if you are looking to explore the coastline.

    One downside is that card payments are not accepted, so we had to make an extra effort to find a working ATM.

    The hosts were kind and really tried to make us feel welcome.

    Nothing in general. It was nice. Maybe to add a WiFi connection, luckily we had enough data and signal to check what’s around, open hours and things to see (you also have a nice info book with suggestions inside the room).

    We like the location. There was a possibility to park our car. Sometimes you have to look around the corner. The room was small, but comfortable. It was clean. The staff was nice, but sometimes you have to look around, where they are. But what we really liked was a family run pub inside the house. There was a warm atmosphere and local vibe. Rooms are quiet. You barely hear what is going on. Breakfast was really in British style.

    The staff was great! Annya (one of the bar tenders) demonstrated exceptional kindness and others there were just as friendly and helpful. They allowed four adults in a room which saved us a lot of money. For our purposes the location was great. We were able to take a bus to "The Cliffs" for free which also got us free entry.

    Room was quite small but fine for the amount of time we spent there. I didn't like the filter coffee but the range of tea was good.

    The Ritz Hotel was spotlessly clean and fairly reasonably priced. Friendly staff. Room was clean and had everything you would. Breakfast was freshly made and tasty.

    The bathroom fan was noisy and did not work. The fan came on with the light we could not use the light at night, there was no hair dryer and not enough hooks for the number of towels. The mattresses were old and too soft. We could hear our next door neighbour snoring thru the wall. The bedroom curtains did not block out the street light and there was an emergency exit sign that shone green all night long on the bedroom ceiling, illuminating the bedroom.

    Parking was good, the breakfast was very good. Lots of options. Location was good for the Doolin ferry. Service at the pub and restaurant was excellent. Friendly attentive staff.

    Sadly local businesses have took the government money and 2 big hotels are now closed to the public and have refugees in them who clearly add nothing to local economy, which had obviously had a knock on effect with lots of small local businesses closed in the town.

    Lovely hotel , clean and tidy very nice rooms with recently done up bathrooms , top notch shower . Breakfast was lovely , cooked fresh when ordered , also cereal and yogurt and some pastry available.

    The town was so quiet and, as a result, so was the hotel. There were so few people, most passing through, that we felt out of place.

    The beds were comfortable and it was conveniently located near Doolin and the Shannon airport.

    We knew there was no elevator and this is an older property with only 2 floors, but this is something to maybe consider for those of advancing years and bulky luggage. We were concerned about having to find off-street parking but this turned out to be a non-issue in late August with stormy weather on the horizon but I guess could be more of an issue in nice weather with more tourists

    Quaint hotel in striking distance of the cliffs of Moher. Quiet area and parking was easy in the square. Staff very polite and helpful, dinner and breakfast were well received by all. We only stayed one night but enjoyed it and the peaceful surroundings.

    The check-in was quick, making our arrival hassle-free. The hotel offers free parking, which is always a plus. Our standard room was well-equipped with everything needed for a one-night stay. Additionally, the Irish breakfast served was delicious and a great start to the day. The hotel’s proximity to a small shop for any last-minute purchases was also very convenient. Overall, our stay was pleasant and met all our basic needs.
