This was my 2nd visit to this charming little hotel in Doolin and I was worried that it would not be as good as my first. I am so glad to say that it was. This is a small hotel that is in a wonderful location if you want to tour the area and that is why my wife and... More

This is a great hotel when you are on business. Great staff, sharp service, perfectly adequate rooms, but absolutely no soul. It is not for the tourist class and should on that score be avoided. Unless you are looking for a corporate hotel on the holiday cicuit! More

This was a fantastic place to stay in a great little town! Everyone at the hotel was very nice and helpful, including recommendations for places to go that were off the beaten path. The room was very nice and the pub (Fitz's) was a great place to hear music and enjoy a nice dinner. The spread for breakfast was impressive... More

The tiny town of Doolin is a grand place and staying at the Hotel Doolin definitely added to the experience. You can practically hear the ocean waves slamming against the cliffs from in front of this place. The staff were very nice and helpful. We were four friends driving through Ireland for a couple of weeks and got booked into... More

Not many hotel (as opposed to B&B) choices in Doolin and this place does the trick just fine. Staff/room/value are all great. The design is a bit odd where everything is connected (restaurant, travel office, bar) in a long straight layout so to get to the bar you have to walk through everything else. But to get to the bar... More

After a fruitless search for decent accommodation in Lahinch and Lisdoonvarna we back tracked to Doolin and were relieved to find such a great hotel waiting to greet us. Though it was the week before the official opening of the tourist season with many hotels and restaurants still closed for WInter, Hotel Doolin was open for business and provided us... More

We were a group of 6 who arrived in Doolin on March 27th for 2 nights. We intended to stay at a B&B in town, and stopped at the information booth located adjacent to the hotel. We discovered that the Hotel Doolin was offering B&B rates (including a full breakfast in their dining room). We booked the rooms and were... More
