Just arrived back from staying 2 nights at Kilronan hostel. Great location,just off the pier and near the shop and Pubs. Free breekie was a great bonus too. The guy who runs the place was such a cool guy, so laidback and helpful !! Thanks a mill Dave, will definitly be back to visit!!

Myself and 2 friends, with our 8 combined offspring of mostly teenage sons, spent a fabulous 2 nights at Kilronan Hostel last summer. So much so that we had to promise the kids that we'd come back again, and we're heading off this weekend - 25th June 2011, but for an extended 3 night stay this time.
After an initial mix-up with the rooms over the phone, Dave and all the staff were most charming and helpful - Dave even came to our rescue when we were going to be charged for losing one of the 11 bikes we had hired (it wasn't lost, but we had returned the bikes in dribs and drabs and the owner had got confused!).
None of us had stayed at a hostel in over 20 years, so weren't sure what to expect. The very reasonable rate included breakfast, so when we got up the first morning, we could almost smell the sizzling bacon and sausages.......imagine our surprise when we realized it was help yourself to tea and toast in the kitchen!!! But this was our mistake, and we soon got into the swing of hostel life, and absolutely loved it.
A few days after our return my son realized he had left his small MP3 player under the mattress of the bed he was using. I rang about it but wasn't hopeful....... but it was still there and sent back to me that same day.
Overall a lovely place to spend a few days - clean, bright, friendly, great vibe, Dave is a great host, made us feel really at home. We're all really looking forward to going back.

Four of us stayed here from Friday to Sunday. We got a friendly welcome from everyone in the area! Our room was 'cozy' but perfect for a weekend away. We had our own bathroom which was clean. The location was ideal, right next to a pub, across from Supermac's, around the corner from Spar and above the bike rental shop! There is a large kitchen/dining area with every facility for tea, coffee, breakfast, cooking facilities including milk, bread, salt pepper etc. A sitting room with plasma tv, sky digital, internet and loads of up to date dvds and books!
I highly recommend this hostel for a cheap and cheerful get away with a group of friends!

Just home from an amazing weekend on Inis Mór. Kilronan hostel is the ideal place to stay. It's central to pubs, shops & restaurants. Only a few minutes walk from the pier and the beach is virtually on your doorstep. Dave the owner couldnt have been more hospitable. The dorm rooms were comfy & clean. The kitchen was well equipped & spotless. The local people were welcoming and friendly. The scenery is breath taking. Overall a fantastic experience.
