The owner greeting the guests during dinner and providing a history of the resort and surrounding area which would be of interest to those from USA.

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.

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!

We found staying at the castle very exciting. We were treated very well by staff. We stayed on a Friday night and our room was above the outdoor smoking area so we could hear peoples voices right up to 2 am. The breakfast the next morning was ok. Eggs Benedict had over cooked eggs and a drizzle of hollandaise sauce. My husband enjoyed his kipper. Be ready to fill up with cereal and fruit.

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.

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

The best hospitality of any place I have ever been , the owner gives out photos of each guest that he takes himself. The nightly story of the history of Abbeyglen is not to be missed 🙏
