Great place to stay. It is a little out of the city center, but it has a great view of the bay. Everyone is very helpful with directions. more

Watch out on this place. I arrived late one evening (having called ahead to notify the property of that fact) and was told upon arrival I was not booked at this B&B (even though I had the confirmation in my hand) and that the house was full. I was also lead to believe this place was a hotel as advertised... more

Hi Dave, we were very dissapointed to read you did not have a positive experience at Amber bay on this occasion, and was very surprised you would write such a review bearing in mind your past stays with us with no issue. We do our best, sometimes in very difficult circumstances to please all our guests but from time to...

The location of the B&B is not exactly central in Galway city, but was willing to put up with the inconvenience if it was cheaper. It was about 10 EUR to and from the B&B in a taxi from the city centre. However, the price of the B&B is quite steep for what it was. It was an average 3... more

The rate also included an all you can...

My husband and I stayed at the Amber Bay for three days in September 2008. We found the inn through Tripadvisor and booked because of the excellent reviews. We were not disappointed. The common areas of the house are neat and attractive. The staff are friendly and helpful. Our room faced the bay and was spacious (by European standards) and... more

Our stay at Amber Bay B&B was a great experience. Even before we arrived in Ireland, they helped us adjust our reservations in a timely manner and without additional cost. They also helped us book a tour of the Burren and Cliffs of Moher (which picked us up at the B&B). When we arrived, they were friendly and attentive. The... more

Wow, I just re-read all the rave reviews about this place (part of what made us decide to stay here) and all I can say is that in my opinion, the raves are quite over-rated. This is an okay place at best, and not a very good value for the money. It is on a road that has at least... more

This is the second time we've stayed at the Amber Bay and felt it was worth another review. We stayed here October 07 and really enjoyed our time here so much that we couldn't resist coming back. Thankfully not much has changed since then. The rooms, the food and the welcome were all 1st class yet again. The Amber Bay... more

On our way to Connemara, we stayed at the Amber Bay B&B. Our room faced the bay. The room was not spacious, but had a lot more room than some of those we stayed at previously . Patrick went out of his way to offer extras, like bottled water. The bed was excellent and the room was clean. Patrick served... more
