We were a group of 8 lads down for a few rounds of golf in Connemara Links. Originally had three twins and a double booked but the hotel very kindly allowed us to have another twin room. The rooms were lovely and the showers hot and powerful which is ideal when coming in after a long round of golf. The hotel staff were incredibly kind and even allowed us to have a late breakfast which was very much appreciated! There was a great atmosphere in the evening with a fire down in the lobby and a lovely bar in the back playing jazz music. Just the perfect place to stay for the weekend we had. Thanks everyone at Foyles!

Guest reviews
Foyles Hotel averages 4.7 out of 5 across 437 reviews. A selection, quoted as written:
A great old, classic quaint hotel with a nice restaurant and bar. Breakfast was included in a nice old style restaurant. My room had a nice view of the street. The hotel has a nice central location and the room was quiet and the bed was comfortable.
A very nice, old school hotel. It has a quaint and cozy feel. Downsides are that there is only street parking (or a municipal lot), there is also no lift (but they happily ferry your luggage up and down for you), and the guests tend to skew older.
