You have to see it to appreciate it!
You have to see it to appreciate it! I can describe it in my words but I would not do it justice. It is simply beautiful! Waterfalls, mountains, beaches, so many places to walk and cycle. Lots of nice places to eat and drink. The weather does not matter at all - summer/winter - it is still beautiful. Just go there and see for yourself.

Ideal location, pubs and shops.
Ideal location, pubs and shops. Gift shop expensive in both Leenane and Clifden. Ideally located for a short cruise on Killary bay, too short , could have gone further out in the bay. Conveniently located for Clifden and Connemara National park, and Kylemore Abbey and excellent Gardens. We travelled via Westport and Louise burg and via Delphi onto Leenane, very scenic.
The Leenane Hotel is ideal for staying and the food is excellent. Ample free parking.
We've stayed previously and will again, hard to find fault with the area or the hotel.

Really exquisite place.
Really exquisite place. The hotel is in a small and beautiful town and the view is amazing, If you want a break from city monotony this is THE place. Even the road to Leenaun is beautiful (Wild Atlantic).
If you like authentic Irish food, you will definately like the food here.

Wonderful Hotel with stunning views.
Wonderful Hotel with stunning views. Ideal for hikers & as it's dog friendly you can even bring your pet! Great Food, Friendly staff & will return again & again. Highly recommended a Deep Tissue Massage by Bart!!
Highly recommended. Very good 3* hotel in an absolutely beautiful location in Connemara. Relaxed atmosphere in hotel and very good food, with very friendly and helpful staff. Very restful and uncrowded. Easy access to astounding mountains, beaches and world-famous locations like Kylemore Abbey. On bus route between Cliften and Westport.
The small extra charge for one of the luxury bedrooms is well worth it. They are modern and comfortable and the views of Killary Harbour are just beautiful.
Go hálainn ar fad!
The main interest is the location of the Convent: absolutely stunning setting, at the heart of Connemara’s wild nature.
The room: clean, tidy, simple and comfortable.
The guesthouse: Sean is a great host - very careful his guests have all they need, and very nice. The hotel is a former convent, with a beautiful dining room (great breakfast!) that used to be the chapel.
Three/Four little restaurants nearby and two grocery shops.
Bus station nearby. Very accessible.
Had a really lovely few days in Connemara
I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone
When we arrived the place was lovely and cosy
The owner had the heating on for us and even left a basket of log's for the stove..
The cottage was spotless
It was like home away from home
Leenaun is only a five minute drive away and Westport and clifden 30 minutes drive
So all and all a great experience
Will definitely be back again
Hopefully stay longer next Time
Great location for accessing the sights of Connemara. Short stroll to the village where there are two bars and a small shop and cafe.
Basic room with sea views which were fab. Pity balcony is not big enough to sit out. Standing room only. Food was nice. Very busy at dinner and breakfast so booking is essential. Staff were very nice and friendly. One way system in operation.
Lovely hostess! We were mesmerized by the gorgeous mountain views. It's a quick 10 min into Leenaun, which is a quaint seaside town with friendly people and essentials. The breakfast was very good. Room and beds were comfy and clean. Bathroom was excellent. We loved everything about our stay.
I have come to this hotel for 42 years and would say it is my favourite hotel in Europe.
Location CANNOT be improved upon. Local walks are superb and the two pubs in the village are great.
Breakfast superb. Will be back this year for at least one visit. Staf are very friendly and helpful.
The lodge is located by the Killary fjord (one of 3 fjords in Ireland). It was very beatiful!
Room was very nice and clean, the breakfast was good (and not expensive) and the owner was very kind.
It is very near the Connemara national park and Kylemore abbey.
Great place to stay in Connemara. The location was perfect. Views stunning. A couple minutes walk to bars and restaurants. Very central for all places to visit.
The owners of the property were so helpful and friendly which made our stay even better.
Breakfast was excellent and offered lots of choices. Food was delicious. The hotel location is in such a beautiful area surrounded by mountains and water. Beautiful to look out and see the scenery when enjoying dinner and a glass of wine.
The hostel is in a great location for exploring Connemara. Simple, yet comfortable accommodation with beautiful surroundings. We didn’t stay long enough to take advantage of the activities offered by the resort, but there were lots on offer.
Such a nice guesthouse and in a great location to walk about Leenaun. Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was very comfortable and well appointed. Nice beds and large closet. Free parking and great wifi!!

The staff was really friendly. Flexible check-in and out hours. Great location. Affordable. It's a simple place, perfect for people wanting to sleep and wake up to go explore Connemara.
Excellent hidden treasure in Connemara Ireland. Authentic lodge at the lake. Very pleasant to stay with friendly staff. Great hospitality, very good cuisine. I like to come back.
Dinner menu was typical not very good hotel food, but we discovered the Bar menu which was much better. They were also promoting a 'vegan' wine collection which was delicious.
Fantastic hotel with excellent facilities. Library, bar, restaurants, views, activities, forest walks, spa. Food is amazing. Staff is sooooo friendly! Gem of a resort.
