The accommodations were perfectly fine—clean and comfortable if not extraordinary. But what makes Ryan’s Hotel such a great destination is the lovely village of Cong and the incredible staff. The gentlemen who checked me in and took care of me at breakfast the next morning were simply wonderful and charming, and very generous giving me options for how to enjoy the village and surrounding area. Furthermore, the breakfast spread was incredible. Continental style, but expansive and delicious. Great place!
