Top Roundstone Hotel Reviews

Renvyle House Hotel & Resort

10/10 Excellent

"One word - Superb"

Delphi Resort

8/10 Good

"I booked this stay at Delphi with the intention of taking advantage of the activities for kids and ended up being really disappointed. If you are interested in the activities, make sure you book them WELL in advance. I tried to book a few days before our arrival and everything was unavailable. We tried to book when we arrived, thinking there might be a cancellation, but all of the courses were shut down. We were able to rent bikes and ride around, which was fun and the bike rental staff was very pleasant. We tried to take advantage of the pool, but it is not available for children, or after 6 pm. The dinner staff seemed really overwhelmed and the food was OK for the high price. The location was beautiful and if you are planning an adult retreat that involved day activities and early bed, then this is a great spot."

The Ardagh Hotel & Restaurant

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel overlooking the bay. Fabulous sunset, great food and hospitality."

Connemara Sands Beach Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"The room was a Little bit Small for us two. The restaurant is excellent for dîner and the breakfast is really good. The beach is not on the resort."

Delphi Lodge & Estate

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in a stunning location. If you are looking for a peaceful, relaxing stay with great food this is unbeatable. Staff are excellent, welcoming and humorous. And if you want fishing then it is perfect. We will go back."
