“Great Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed at Ardawn House for three nights and were very pleased with the location and our room. Walking into Galway City is all downhill, but coming back is a hike, but quite doable with a little rest half-way up the hill. Mike and Breda were gracious hosts, with Mike telling my husband where to see a Hooker - an Irish sailing ship! The location is also convenient to the main roads leading in to and out of Galway City. Our room faced the street, but the traffic noise was minimal.

“Our introduction to Ireland”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

After driving from Dublin on the morning we landed in Ireland, we arrived well ahead of check in time. Breda offered us a parking space and we set out to explore the city, only a short five minute walk. Returning to Ardawn about 5 pm, we checked into a clean, spacious, well furnished room, had some tea and cookies and with the sounds of football echoing from the nearby stadium took a delightful nap. Re-energized it was back out for dinner and more wandering. A great night's sleep and our first Irish breakfast, what a treat. Mike taught us that it doesn't drizzle in Ireland, "it's just a little soft." Our intinerary had us driving to Dingle otherwise we would have stayed for days. Highly recommend this B & B

““THE GOOD and THE BAD””
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

The good: the owners were very nice and hospitable. The bad : the bathroom was tiny! This should have been noted on their web site........a very negative if we were staying more than one night.

“Lovely place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

We spent two nights at the Ardawn House in August, 2011. It is a lovely place to stay. Mike was so nice to drive our car in and out out of the parking lot since we are used to driving on the right. They have hot water and a variety of teas available in the parlor in the afternoons. We would definitely stay there again.
