Hylands Burren Hotel in Ballyvaughan

We had a fantastic family stay at Hylands Burren Hotel. From the moment we arrived, every member of staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. The atmosphere was relaxed and family-friendly, and nothing was ever too much trouble. A special thank you to Aaron, who kindly accommodated a request before our stay and made everything so easy for us. We truly had a wonderful experience and would happily return!

A great wee find! We have stopped off here for food when travelling on numerous occasions over last 10 years it's consistently excellent. The burgers are our favourite now! And if your lucky you might just catch a beautiful trad session in the evening with amazing voices as well as tunes!.

Very friendly staff. Good starting point for excursions around the Burren, to Galway, the Aran Islands, the Ailwer and Döblin Caves, or the Cliffs of Moher, about 30m away by car.

Room was fine, comfortable sleeps. Food was extremely good at breakfast & evening. They have a superb Brazilian chef who is passionate about food quality & preparation. His fish chowder is absolutely the BEST we have tasted ANYWHERE. Evening dining was also of the highest quality. The chef is also a fantastic drummer on his Peruvian drum & joins in the evening entertainment. Service is quick & attentive. Great car parking, though would like to see a few EV chargers.

The hotel dates back to the 18th century and is very good. In some places, you can tell that it's showing its age.

Everything you could want for a small village. The staff were all very helpful, clean quiet rooms, restaurant and bar.

Top hotel. Friendly staff and clean rooms. The food was very good.
