Would recommend this hotel to anyone going to Lahinch, food is good and staff are great 👍
Pros:

The food in the bar was a high point, very tasty indeed. The staff were great, service was top notch. They’ve captured a flowing, generous hospitality spirit in this hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay 👍👍👍

Cons:

We had a couple of issues in our bathroom with the toilet not refilling after flushing. Also, the shower took a long time to heat up. The internet connection in our room (17) was also poor.

Pros:

Very classic and simple pub hotel. We only stayed one night but it was cozy and easy. Not the most modern look or finishings but a good experience nonetheless.
