Brilliant Find. FOYLES HOTEL
Pros:

Location, comfort,food, staff, management. Not a new flashy hotel, a hotel that has stood for over 200 years. A pleasure to stay here, wish we had found it earlier, we will return, and I know that they will remember us. That's what's special about Foyles. Great location for exploring places, Claddaghduff, Omey Island, Kylemore Abbey and gardens, Connemara National Park, Letterfrak, and so much more. You will need at least 3 nights and Foyles Hotel is great value. Visit it, you won't regret it.

Cons:

Coming home
