Very clean and well-maintained hotel. All the staff were lovey and extremely helpful. The food was excellent. I cannot fault Raheen Woods Hotel in any way. Athenry is a lovely historic town for a stroll around and a trip to the castle is worth it.

Excellent in every aspect
We had an amazing weekend with our 4-year old. I've stayed in hotels numerous times (for work and leisure) and Raheen Woods is definitely the cleanest and friendliest I've been to in the island of Ireland. All staff incredibly helpful and attentive. The McHale's is the best hotel pub/restaurant I've been to. Breakfast was also excellent. I loved the beautiful décor of the whole hotel and it completely corresponded to the superb experience it offered us. Congratulations! We'll certainly return.

The position is about 30 minutes drive from Galway. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was a buffet and the quality of food depends on the time you get there. A little dried up! Angus who greeted us for breakfast was very helpful and remembered our requirements. The bar/bistro looked nice, food was good, however, was let down by the wait staff. It says to wait to be seated, we waited patiently. However it would have made sense to be able to enter and get a drink whilst we had a lengthy wait. Food didn’t take too long, but the wait for our drinks at the table was lengthy and we had to ask for them a 2nd time. There was also a very long wait to have our plates cleared. Nice pool area , we used the sauna and jacuzzi.

Short stay for a funeral
We were new to this hotel. Warm welcome. Comfortable room larger than we expected with a balcony. Spotlessly clean and the furnishings looked of decent quality. One day housekeeping missed refreshing the tea,coffee tray but reception very quickly put this right. Everything else very smooth.

On the first night we had an adjoining room on the 2nd floor. Our daughter was woken by the family next door talking and shouting. There is no soundproofing, we could clearly hear the TV and snoring in the non adjoining room. My husband went to reception and they agreed to move us to a non adjoining room the following day which they did. We had to check out at 11:30 and wait for the room to be ready which is not something i have experienced previously when changing rooms. The local area has limited food options especially for an evening snack. The food in the hotel was nice however the menus displayed in the lobby were not the menus being used in the restaurant for example one evening we wanted a small snack, my husband went to reception to ask about room service. He was advised we could choose from the bar menu displayed, call reception and they would sort it for us. We decided to go to the bar and eat instead, when we arrived to the bar we were told their was no bar menu and it was the al la carte menu. My husband went back to the reception to clarify and was advised neither menu was correct and there was a separate menu because it was sunday. Very frustrating when trying to organise two hungry kids. On the first morning we attended breakfast at 8:40am, breakfast finishes at 10:30am. We finished eating around 9:15 and my husband went to get a pastry but there was none left. He asked the waiter who retunred and said they would not be refilled, people we still arriving.

The property is well located. Can walk into the village for dinner. However the hotel is noisy. Noise easily transmits from room to room. Also can easily hear the music from downstairs. Also surprised for.a 4 star hotel no complementary bottled water. Breakfast was good, dinner was ok but many options had run out. But they were busy. Overall average.

Its ok.
Overpriced for the room we got. Good location. Close to great ancient ruins. Staff were fairly good. Any room bordering the elevator gets regular noise until late. Walls thin. We felt we got the last room available that was not the best.

The staff was amazing and facilities overall were very nice. However, the room had no AC, no fan, and the window barely opened, so it was unbearably hot and hard to sleep at night. Of course, most of the year in Ireland, this wouldn’t be an issue, but going in July made this aspect difficult. The bed also wasn’t very comfortable, but hotel room was clean and well-stocked!
