Hodson Bay Hotel

We came to celebrate my partner’s birthday and when we arrived in the room the staff had left a birthday card and chocolates. The breakfast was excellent.

Was here for a wedding and stayed over good value, great service and room was spacious and well equiped

Very small array at cold food area, didn't notice the usual array of fruit, milk types, juices, bread, pastries that you'd usually find in a hotel like this....very small tight area for cold buffet, not easy to see/ find stuff/ navigate , breakfast wasn't the occasion it could have been apart from the view ( I had paid separately for breakfast even though I thought it was included when booking as it cost 120 per person (1) per night plus €12 for breakfast ....not value for money unless it feels special and better than you'd have at home

Das Zimmer im Neubau war groß und ansprechend eingerichtet, ebenso das Badezimmer. Das Abendessen war von guter Qualität und die Lage des Hotels direkt am See mit ausreichend Parkmöglichkeiten, war gut.

Going to this hotel since 1999, that says it all, from the management to all of the staff they are fantastic, great atmosphere, great food, fantastic views.

Professional staff, lovely room, good food

We recently held our XL Store of the Year Awards event at the Hodson Bay Hotel, and choosing this venue was an easy decision given so many successful events we have hosted in this hotel previously.
From the setup of the Clonmacnoise Suite to our guest check in and our final departure, everything ran so seamlessly. We received a Enthusiastic Céad míle fáilte from the hotel’s Director, Tim Hayes, and General Manager, Johnny Connaughton, which set the tone for an outstanding event.
A special mention must go to Mary O’Connell and Amanda, who consistently went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was taken care of, including some of our more unusual requests. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to help were exceptional.
The gala evening was a fantastic success, with a culinary masterpiece expertly orchestrated by Michael. We’d also like to send a thank you to Sean and his team in the Residence Bar, who looked after us so well late into the night.
The Hodson Bay is a superb location, right in the centre of Ireland offering excellent amenities and activities. Our guests enjoyed the golf next door and a Viking boat tour departing from the hotel’s harbour, both expertly arranged by Mary O’Connell.
The biggest highlight of all, however, was the hotel staff. Feedback from our 120 guests was overwhelmingly positive, with constant praise for their professionalism, friendliness, and genuine hospitality.
Overall, the Hodson Bay Hotel delivered another outstanding event for us, and we have no hesitation in recommending it as a venue for corporate events or that special occasions.

Myself and my wife stayed here for 1 night for my wife's birthday and our anniversary. We had an amazing experience. We had our room upgraded to a lake view on the 5th floor. Had lovely meal in the waterfront bar where Irina looked after us so well. We also had an excellent experience with Jamie behind the bar who couldn't have been more professional and interesting.

We were also lucky enough to get a place on the cheese and wine tasting with Andrez who is the most knowledgeable wine person we have ever met. Funny interesting and explained everything so well. We fully recommend a stay here and we will definitely be back again. 5 star as far as we were concerned. Thanks all. Colin and Grainne. X

Fabulous location on Lough Ree.
The staff was very friendly and helpful

We had a lovely experience even though it was short

Staff friendly, comfortable room but shower could be a bit stronger
