Hotels Near Connemara Greenway Car Park in Ballynahinch

Just back from one of their 3 night Gourmet Dining breaks and was so impressed, we're looking at returning over Christmas or New Year's. Rooms were immaculate on arrival with complimentary bottle of sanitiser and although glasses and Tea/Coffee making facilities were removed for hygiene reasons, a quick call to reception had everything we needed, delivered within 5 minutes. Standard double room was a nice size with plenty of wardrobe and drawer space as well as an iron if needed. Rooms look like they've been recently done up. Decent shower/bath as well Our package included a 3 course dinner each night and I'm happy to report that (and both of us agreed) each and every plate served up in the Carriages Restaurant was excellent. Really couldn't find fault with a single thing on any of the plates. Meals can also be ordered without reservation across the yard in the Signal Bar but we didn't eat there and it's a different menu. Breakfast was the usual standard you'll find in any hotel and obviously it's not a buffet anymore so ask whoever is serving you for exactly what you do or don't want on your Full Irish. Plenty of healthier options available too. Anybody worried about how this hotel is implementing Covid regulations can relax as well. Everything I witnessed was beyond what I've seen in most other places but was all done as if it was just normal, everyday routine. Unfortunately, this also means that the 2 bars close at 11pm but that's the current law - just be aware of that in case you think it's like the old style residents bar 'til 2 or 3 in three morning. So, well done and thank you to ALL the staff for making it a really pleasant stay for us in these strange times. Looking forward to going back already.

A warm welcome awaits all visitors to this restful haven created by Julia and Paddy close to town and the drama of the Connemara landscape. It truly felt like a home from home, but with more style and comfort. The spacious accommodation is beautifully furnished and decorated and the rooms at the front enjoy a view across the river. Our room had a small Juliet Balcony which enabled us to fully appreciate the picturesque and calm location. Breakfast was outstanding and served in a delightful conservatory. There was a great choice of Irish or continental breakfast, all cooked and served with polite efficiency. Above all though was the genuine warmth and friendlier of our hosts Julia and Paddy. All in one of the best places Cherry and I have stayed anywhere in the world and we will be back one day.
