The location is fantastic, a chance to explore Connemara and Galway city. The staff are incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and attentive. We had dinner also and it was all freshly home made, portions very large, incredibly tasty and great value. The rooms have been refreshed to an extent. For a budget friendly hotel it exceeded our expectations.

Guest reviews
Connemara Lake Hotel averages 4.3 out of 5 across 334 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
Went in here for a meal after the Connemarathon. The staff were so welcoming. We went in when the place was empty and they were delighted to have us. Really good food, nice drinks and a great coffee to take for the road. A credit to all involved.
Went down for a communion dinner. Set menu but with good choices. Chicken wings were excellent and fried hake was meaty perfectly cooked. Staff were very friendly. Impressed.
