The hotel was great by itself. Room was great and the overall space was also great. Easy and plenty of parking. It is a decent distance outside of the town centre so you need to taxi or drive to avoid the 30 min walk. I would say we had a different experience with the bar restaurant than perhaps others. While the service was good, the food was not. I’d place it last amongst 10 days of meals we had in Ireland. The fish and chips one had was not crispy rather a bit soggy. So consider options outside of the hotel if you have the ability.

Staff very lovely and genuine. Really nice bunch. They seem short staffed and run off their feet. Hotel was rather tired and dusty in places. Room looked out on a dirty roof where all the a/c units were. Food was ok. Gym was good

The hotel is very nice and the staff are very pleasant. We had a booked a meal in the restaurant on Wednesday night because we thought it would be quiter than the bistro but when we got there we was told that is was closed and we had to eat in the bistro very annoying. In the mornings between 7.30 am and 8.00am we had a tractor outside our bedroom waking us up with the noise it was a shame that this spoilt our stay

4/10 Fair

Hotel that has not kept up with the times
Hotel has nice grounds, but the rooms are dated. Stayed at 4 other 4* hotels on my vacation and The Ardilaun did not felt like you do not get what you are paying for. Pillows and bed were not comfortable, walls are paper thin and could hear all surrounding rooms using the bathroom all throughout the night. Door was not closed after servicing, but luckily nothing was taken. On the plus side the staff is amazing, welcoming and attentive.

I can’t say enough good things about The Ardilaun. We came for a wedding, everything was amazing, including the staff and service. We occupied the lobby until the wee hours and the staff continued to give us great service. It’s a beautiful older property, but has tons of character. I would love to come back and visit next time I’m in Galway.
