I chose this hotel for a brief stop over on the way through Galway for the family on perceived quality grounds.

The room was spacious and worked ok for us - bed arrangements a little weird with 3 single beds and a very small double. At the price paid (Euro 140 B&B) I would have expected in room wifi for free.

Main let down was breakfast - ordinary to poor - hot plate buffet and limited cold plate with yellowing cheese and crusty ham. I asked for an omelette but was told that this wasnt on the menu - I observed that this was a shame and the waitress came back 5 minutes later to say they would do me one but not to show anyone else ... I already had my buffet breakfast so declined.

I was in the Ardilaun for 3 nights running a course for work colleagues. This was a residential course including dinner each evening and a light lunch. Facilities were excellent. Staff were supberb. Everyone commented on the quality of the food on offer each evening. I would highly recommend this hotel for similar events. I also think it would be an ideal destination for pleasure. It's in a quiet location surrounded by lovely gardens and is very close to the centre of Galway- taxi cost €6. The leisure centre is one of the best I've experienced.Lastly any hotel were the proprietor deals directly with you and other guests is very impressive!

Stayed friday night last. Was given an upgrade to executive room which was lovely, a huge bed and very comfy. Ate in the Bistro, very good deal for 3 courses and a drink. Food was lovely. It was a really cold day so didn't use the pool. Staff were lovely and we really enjoyed our first stay in The Ardilaun. We will go back.

The Ardilaun was our venue for our wedding reception, and from start to finish they were wonderful and catered for everything we wanted and had great ideas of things that we might want.
On the day the staff were fantastic every single one, and every guest at our wedding said the same, they couldn't believe how great the food was, how fast the service was and that the hotel itself was fabulous.

Great comfortable rooms, super room service also. A lot of people went for breakfast towards the end of service and all commented on how great the breakfast was, still so fresh and the staff were still aiming to help in any way they could.

There is a fantastic gym, pool and beauty area in the hotel, it is very close to Salthill and a short drive into Galway city.

Will definitely return.
