We have just returned from a wonderful night at Rockglen. My step mum & I had been travelling around Ireland for 7 days and on our last day we found Rockglen just outside Clifden (which was a really charming town). The price was amazing, service was completely 5 star without being snooty, dinner was lovely and breakfast...well if you like... more

We stayed my wife and I at this beautifull and very relaxing hotel. On arrival we received a warm wellcome and were brought to our room while the porter carried our cases. The room was cosy and very confortable and all necessities were available. We decided to have dinner and we do not regret it. The food and the service... more

Don't let the photos on the website fool you. This is a grossly and outrageously overpriced, dilapidated, run-down property. The cost for husband, wife, and child was $441.00 US for a basic, bland, falling apart triple room. The price included a 12.5% mandatory service fee. What the fee covered was a mystery: there was NO help with the luggage, the... more

Fine hotel, excellent staff and above all the Clifden area itself. Probably not worthy of it 4 star claim as the facilites are dated. Luckily the weather was exceptional fro the time of the year more

We stayed for two nights over the bank holiday weekend. The hotel has a quaint old world feel and seems to attract an older client base year after year. We were quite disappointed with our room, it was large and clean but it was dimly lit with very tired decor and in need of refurbishment. There was a view of... more

I stayed in The Rock Glen in July 06 and loved the place. We were checked in by an older lady who was both helpful and welcoming. Although the hotel is slightly posh it isn't at all intimidating or cold. Our rom over looked a lovely garen and was very peaceful but the bathroom could have been cleaner. The restaurant... more

My husband and I stayed two nights at this hotel. We really enjoyed the place. It is very convenient to Clifden. Not walking distance, but less than a 5 minute drive into the village. The grounds are very peaceful and pretty. Our room was comfortable, and we enjoyed the food in this hotel. The staff was very helpful and accomodating... more

I've stayed at the Rock Glen on 3 previous occasions and it has been one of my favourite places for food and service. This time my husband and I went especially to celebrate our wedding anniversary and were very disappointed. At a price of €300 for B&B, dinner and 2 bottles of house wine this was an expensive night away.... more

I had very high hopes for our stay at Rock Glen, primarily based on the price (very high, indicating a nice place) and the 4-star rating as advertised on the sign outside the property. However, the room and especially bathroom are not at all up to my expectations for a 4-star hotel. The bed at first sight is old, flat,... more
