We were a group of 6 who stayed in the Helm apartments over Easter. Fantastic experience from start to finish. Friendly staff, welcome basket of essentials (yes, including wine), spotlessly clean & a fantastic (plentiful) breakfast. We had lunch here one of the days and the food was great, amazing chowder. Highly recommend The Helm.

We had the pleasure of staying at this great place when we visited Westport for our brothers wedding in April this year. Couldn't have gotten better service. Food excellent - huge meals, great atmosphere, excellent accommodation. Wish we could have stayed longer. Will certainly be staying there again. Well done Vinny & Shane.

One small niggle is that they could possibly be better insulated for noise rather than heating. Maybe Not ideal for super light sleepers or... More

Breakfast was included each morning and the food was good - cereals, juice, fruit and yoghurt and full irish or any combination. The staff are excellent, very friendly and very helpful.
