This was our second time to Doolin, and we had to return because I love this tiny town so much! Last time we stayed in a B&B, but with a slightly higher budget this time around, we treated ourselves to the Hotel Doolin instead. The rate for room and breakfast was very reasonable this time of year anyway. On a... More

A three-night stay in April was a significant success. A warm welcome at reception, followed by surprise anniversary cake in the good-sized well-heated rook set the tone. This hotel is a recent arrival on the Clare scene and the clean modern ambience is a neat twist on traditional Irish country hospitality. Breakfasts are excellent and attractively presented.

Me and my mother went on an adventure to see the Cliffs of Moher, we were planning on staying at a b&b but when we got to Doolin it was late and dark and almost nothing was open. On a leap of faith we decided to try out this hotel, and it turned out to be an incredible experience. We... More

We stayed overnight in Doolin to see the Cliffs of Moher (which were awe inspiring), and stayed at Hotel Doolin. To an American, picture a very clean Holiday Inn Express if you are trying to picture the rooms. Beds were very firm, but the bathroom was nicer than that comparison suggests. Lobby is a cut above the H-I Express line,... More

This hotel was super and the service was great. We are off season travelers, so we didn't really get the full "flavor" of Doolin (I hear they have great music) - very sleepy time of the year. Nevertheless, the hotel was clean, the room was comfortable, the overall feeling of the place was modern and fresh. The staff really went... More
