Jolie halte près du lac
Pros:

Nous avons apprécié le restaurant dans l’hôtel où nous avons très bien mangé le dîner du soir ainsi que le buffet de petit déjeuner. Parfaite location pour se balader à pied.

Pros:

Une chambre familiale spacieuse et lumineuse, dans un hôtel bien tenu et joli. Au coeur de cette petite ville donc proche de tout.

Cons:

Le bruit ! En weekend du moins il ne faut pas choisir cet hôtel si l'on souhaite avoir du calme.
1ère nuit : soirée organisée au rez-de-chaussée de l'hôtel, dans la salle de restaurant, avec DJ au micro et musique à fond jusqu'à une heure avancée de la nuit (au moins 2-3h). Nous avons supposé que c'était exceptionnel, donc pas de problème.
Mais 2e nuit : même problème, si ce n'est que le bruit (musique à fond et fête dans la rue) venait du pub voisin...
Par contre si vous allez à Oughterard pour faire la fête, aucun souci, vous êtes au bon endroit !

Et à noter aussi l'absence de chauffage directement dans la salle de bain de notre chambre, ce qui est très juste au niveau température et confort, malgré une salle de bain très propre et adaptée.
