Wonderful Peacockes
We had a lovely stay. 6ft Bed (2 single 3ft together): Extremely comfortable. Fantastic as weather was so hot. Staff were so lovely and friendly. Breakfast was great. We would highly recommend this hotel. Great location for exploring Connemara.

Stay cation 2020 Connemara.... Where else
We recently stayed at the Peacocks Hotel in Maam Cross. The staff were lovely, helpful, efficient, we had 2 rooms they were clean and very comfortable. Any extra towels we needed were always available. The food was delicious and very well priced. Social distancing was excellent. The open fire just amazing. I wud recommend a stay at the Peacocks Hotel.

Post lock down mini break
Nervous about the trip as this was our 1st trip since lock down. We expected to spend alot of time in the room but it was relatively quiet and the place is large so social distancing was not an issue. The food is fantastic for the dinner menu. Breakfast is not buffet and it is a restricted menu. Overall we really enjoyed our short break. Things to know before you go 1.COVID guidelines were being observed. 2.There was no cleaning of the room over the weekend as hotel staff cannot enter the room while you are checked in. We just got replacement towels from house keeping while they were in the corridor. 3. One way system in place in public areas. This is not an issue but it does mean that you go out side under a porch and back in when you use the bathroom facilities down stairs. 4. Check in is a very quick, signature and key pick up only. Screens and hand sanitizer in place. 5. There are roadworks taking place outside the hotel so this is noisy when they are starting up between 7 and 7.30 in the morning. 6.To access the hotel from Galway pass through the traffic lights. There is a junction just at the filling station which allows access to the back carpark. The doors at the front carpark are not in use so the oneway system can be enforced when entering / leaving the hotel.

Breakfast relay race
Nice place, although dated but my biggest gripe was the rigmarole involved in getting breakfast. It was like a relay race and no one seemed to know what they were doing. This should be massively simplified and you’d be on to a real winner.

The towels are so soft! There is a great viewing tower as the hotel is surrounded by National Parkland and the bird feeder out the front is cool. Lots of parking available, rooms are very spacious and the staff are lovely.

Lovely, friendly and professional staff are the hotel's best asset. Room rate is reasonable by comparison with other hotels in the area. Good quality breakfast. Situated mid-way on main road from Galway to Clifden. Beautiful, wild and rugged, postcard scenery nearby. The hotel is not as nice as the photos suggest. Decor and paint work in rooms are looking tired, and in need of refurbishment. Hotel bedrooms would look a lot of better if closer attention was paid to minor maintenance issues, fresh white sealant between the bath and the tiles, a touch of paint and new curtains. It would not cost a lot and it would restore the hotel to its former glory.

Just ok
Hotel room was ok, however cobwebs were evident. The bathroom was poor, there was brown water coming from the taps, and mould on the ceiling. The evening food and breakfast was nice.

Response from Peacockes on 26 Jul 2019
Hi, Thank you for your feedback re the mould, this will be seen to immediately. With regard to the water, it has a natural peat colour. This is due to the nature of the countryside and is in no way harmful. In fact, the Connemara water is extremely soft and beneficial to the skin!

A really great place
Checked in later in the evening but they still served us dinner which was delicious.The room was larger then most, very clean, comfy beds and the bathroom was good. The water was a little brown at the Hotel due to its location near peat bogs but was ok to shower in. They provided drinking water in the rooms. Breakfast was really good and the staff couldn't do enough for us. A really great place.
