We arrived quite a bit early and were given a warm welcome with tea and told we could sit by the fire until our rooms were ready. The inn was clean and comfortable and well situated within the little town. We enjoyed the live music in the pub every night and the breakfast every morning. We would stay here again.

I rarely write reviews but this place stood out for its very poor value. Not terrible but I would say most lackluster hotel we stayed in throughout our Ireland trip and the most expensive by a significant factor--and this was low season. Mentioned this to the hotel staff and got a disinterested shrug. Property felt worn. Stains on the carpet. Followed advice from other reviewers and did not eat in the restaurant and instead had a lovely meal at Monks. Look elsewhere.

Cosy hotel in the heart of Ballyvaughan
It's a cosy old hotel in the heart of Ballyvaughan, on the edge of the Burren. Good food, good accommodation and a great welcome. Live music in the bar. The only drawback for us is that there is no lift/elevator, and this can mean several flights of stairs.
