Very friendly and welcoming couple. Spotless, comfortable room. Breakfast was perfect- sausages cooked exactly the way Mom used to do it. Good location- close to town, but not too close
In tranquil, rural surroundings just a 5 minute walk from Lisdoonvarna, Greenlawn House features modern rooms with free Wi-Fi, free parking, and full Irish breakfasts.

A very modern and comfortable place with a lovely garden, nice rooms and a good breakfast. Very knowledgeable staff if you have questions about the area. We went to the Roadside Tavern based on the brochure in the room and were not disappointed. Only a short walk away with food well beyond typical pub fare and their own craft beers.
Located in the heart of Doolin and established in 2019, Fiddle + Bow Hotel is a boutique hotel with a range of room options. We will be your home away from home.

Comfortable beds and I loved how we had 2 twins and a full/queen. Attached restaurant was wonderful. Free parking. Clean. Short drive to cliffs and a few minutes walking to a few pubs/hotel just down the street. Nice clean cotton & linen bedding.
Set in the heart of Doolin, Hotel Doolin is Irelands first certified carbon neutral hotel.

The ladies at the front desk were so very accommodating and very friendly.
The food in the hotel’s restaurant was unbelievable delicious. Our waiter had recommended a couple of his favorite dishes. We were blown away as to how good the food was. Thank you for a great experience.
Doolin Inn is located in Doolin, overlooking Fisher Street and located at the start of the Cliffs of Moher walk. This 3-star hotel offers a conierge service, full of knowledge of the local area.

We would have stayed in Doolin if we would have known there wasn’t traditional music as advertised at our hotel. It was the whole reason we stayed there and the music was in Doolin, not Lisdoonvarna.
The tourist economy is extremely competitive. Tourists want to see quaint and experience attractions in the short time they are traveling through a community. It’s expensive for a city to provide those kinds of things that demanding travelers want. Perhaps a regional travel organization can increase collaboration among communities to set the stage for regional success, not just success for Doolin.

Did not explore Lisdoonvarna itself too much but it would have been worth a day or two, just too much other stuff pre-planned. Was a great base to the Burren, Doolin, Cliffs of Mohr, Aran islands ferry.

Live music at the Ritz, however all the large hotels were shut to the public as they were being used to house refugees. Absolutely no problem with that use but they surly could allow the public access to the restaurants coffee shops etc as without this there were only limited facility in the town.

Considering that it is a tourist destination, it is quiet shabby I thought. The town coucil (like many others in Clare) should consider a factfinding trip to the likes of Westport to see how a tourist town SHOULD look like.
The "What would you recommend Lisdoonervarna for" sectoin is challenging "Its central position in North West Clare and the roads out of it" was not an option..

We went for the festival which we went to every year before Covid and I am sorry to say it was not as it usually is. All of the hotels were closed which was a major disappointment. Thankfully the Ritz still serves great food but the Matchmaker bar which is usually excellent was closed along with a lot more.
I am afraid we will not be going back and this saddens me as the festival was usually hopping.

We loved Lisdoonvarna.
We loved Lisdoonvarna. The town is small but lively and we really enjoyed the Ritz House Hotel. First, they were very kind, with free Wi-Fi available in the bar. We had an excellent dinner there, with great food, service and atmosphere. We wished we had booked to stay there!
We used the trip as a point for visiting the Aran Islands from nearby Doolin. This worked very well and we had a wonderful day out there, in the care of Doolin Ferries.
I thought the common spaces were charming and it’s good for families with a lot of kids because the room had beds for all four of them. The staff was very nice and the other guests were too. I love Ireland and love this little town and I hope that somehow the hotel can be updated and get the support it needs to be all that it can be.
The Rathbaun Hotel is a family run business that totally went out of their way to make our stay very good. It definitely is an older hotel with alot of charm. All members of the family did everything they could to help us in every way. It was very close to Doolin and the Cliff of Moher.
This is a basic enough hotel, dated but not without a certain charm, All what you would expect is there (en siute, clean, warm, teaa making, tv Good Wifi, etc etc) car park is directly adjacemnt and the hotel is very central.
Chef/Waiter for Breakfast is very charming and efficicent
We've slept in three different B&B in one week (family road trip) and Elements B&B really exceeded our expectations, and also competition ! It feels like a 4 star hotel ! Keith & Christina are lovely people, rooms are so comfy, and the breakfast is magical.
The welcome was sincere and the hospitality genuine.
Dinner at the hotel was delicious.
Breakfast was great.
The rooms were clean.
We stayed only night due to our itinerary but location seemed optimal to use as a base location for the area.
the property was excellent in every way ,plenty of towels ,extra pillows large rooms ,located across from the Ritz hotel where the craic was mighty live music every nite ,Special mention for Pat a superb musician
A traditional family hotel. I was welcomed and looked after by a very nice lady. The breakfast was phenomenal. Very clean and comfortable. I felt it was a great base to explore Co. Clare from. Very good value.
Staff were exceptional in this hotel, very friendly and welcoming. The food was lovely, best apple tart in Ireland. Breakfast was great and the room was lovely. Very good value for money.
The location was fantastic, a perfect Irish countryside setting. It was the best breakfast we’ve ever had at a B&B. The room was comfortable and very clean. The host were quite welcoming.
everything about it is as close to perfect as it gets (even when the weather doesn’t cooperate), thanks for a wonderful stay in a beautiful place, and breakfast was just the best ever!
Quality sheets, bed and breakfast. Helpful landlady. It’s best to have a car as this is a little bit out of the downtown area. The plants and trees were beautiful. Nice and quiet.
