“Nice B and B”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2007
1
person found this review helpful

Nice B and B. I was given room # 3 which had a twin and a double. My friends were given room #4 which had two twins. Decent location but had to drive to get food. It's about 1.9 miles to Barna which has at least two decent restaurants. Our hostess said it was about 1.25 miles and we tried to walk it but gave up and went back for the car. (I was tired of driving for the day.)

Breakfast was good. We had the normal Irish Breakfast. Parking was offstreet but a little tight. The hostess was very friendly and tried to give us directions to where we wanted to go. She did recommend Barton's Chocolate which was very good.

  • Liked — Nice views.
  • Disliked — Eggs too runny

“Very Pleasant and Good Value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2005

I was travelling through Ireland with 3 friends. We stayed at the Connaught for a night. It was wonderful. Our room had a view of the water. Collette was very helpful. We wanted a walk before dinner and she told us the shortcut to town to see the Galway Festival. We spent an enjoyable evening in Galway. Our breakfast was fabulous. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and some in our group are very picky. The house was bright and friendly and easy to find.

“Loved this B&B!”

I arrived very tired from a long trip, and Colette was very warm and welcoming.

Room attractively furnished, comfortable and exactly as advertised. Bathroom large enough, with ample space for setting out toiletries.

Breakfast was fabulous! Traditional Irish breakfast prepared by Tom was a great start to the day.

The home is beautifully decorated with many personal touches, including lovely family photos. I definitely felt as if I was among friends and wouldn't hesitate to return someday
