5/5 Excellent
"Great hotel, nice room- quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay."

"I have stayed here before and every time it has been pleasant.
Love the opportunity to have pool, spa, food and comfort all in the same place.
Not the newest place, but had a refreshed room tbh, but does the job for a family. Rooms are warm and there's also a fairy spot for young children. Electric cars chargers also available. Would definitely come back again."
"We were met at the Radisson by Giovanni and Joy (the Concierges) who were incredibly friendly and helpful (they had even upgraded us from a standard room to a Junior Suite without us asking... first time I have ever been upgraded ever). The view from the room was an incredible view of the River Shannon. Joy and Giovanni recommended some dishes on the menu for Dinner from the in house restaurant, and wow... the Food was delicious. We had the Fish and Chips, the Ice Cream, and the Lemon cake, all of it was amazing. We paid the extra to have the food delivered to our room as we are not social butterflies, and the hotel was SUPER busy, but the food came up quickly, and the presentation was fantastic. The next morning, we went for breakfast and the staff were super helpful. The Room was HUGE, seriously, and the bed was comfortable. The only let down from the whole trip was we had asked for some milk to be brought up to our room the next day, and it never came so we couldn't make our own teas and Coffees. The breakfast staff were super helpful too, though the food was more standard affair and didn't stand out as good or bad, and was totally eclipsed by the dinner the night before. Overall, highly recommend the Athlone Radisson Blu."

"Big rooom. Clean and cute. The bar looked adorable. Super nice staff (lady from nyc) would totally come again. It was so nice to stay in a jcie hotel after some sketch air bnbs. Just book this hotel if you are on the fence. Not too far of a drive from the cliffs, stopped at some castles on the way and stooped by a cute little town for sunset and dinner after the cliffs "
