Room was spotless clean, staff were very accommodating, breakfast was lovely. We did not realise the popularity of the bar and were disappointed to not be able to dine in the hotel the evening we stayed and had to drive to a nearby town for dinner. Would recommend that tables is booked in the restaurant or bistro for dinner.

Couples stay

Great location and scenic view from our room. However it was super hot and no AC so we had to use fans. I found silver fish flies around the bed. The staff were mostly friendly apart from a few who could have been more mannerly and maybe needed training on etiquette in Ireland for example some non english speaking staff were not helpful, unfriendly and did not help with luggage and did not hold the lift even when they could see i was struggling with luggage and asked for some assistance. The staff in the restaurant also mixed up our order and eventually spoke to the manager who was a nice Irish lady who rectified the issue and said it was a language barrier issue with the staff member who mixed up the order. More gluten free food options would be great. It was very busy and the service was definitely affected due to weddings while we were there so it did not feel like we we attended to or made feel speical.

There was a loud wedding going on all evening so the staff was understandably busy. I was still able to get rest through the night with some noise-canceling headphones. One thing of note: the bus stops 20 minutes walk away so be wary of this if relying on public transportation. It’s not a difficult walk with bags, it just takes time.

It is a lovely rural coastal setting on the West coast of Ireland. It's a quaint and homely hotel. The hotel is eco-friendly and minimises the use of plastic. They also have fantastic plant-based options for meals. Breakfast at Aileen's had stunning sea views and breakfast was excellent. Staff were polite but not very attentive. The manager found us a table and called the waiter to take our orders, but we found it difficult to get any further service from the waiters. Granted the hotel was busy but the waiters seemed to focus on their regular diners.

Magical Hotel

The Armada is an amazing hotel from start to finish. The check-in staff was lovely and very accommodating. The views of the ocean and beach are unmatched. It really is a magical spot. We stayed in the oceanside Suite and it was views to die for. It was appointed with cute little things like a record player, old-time records, and a spyglass to look at the cliffs. We had dinner in the restaurant and the food was top-notch. Everything was tasty and the service was quick and friendly.
I would highly recommend this hotel, it is a highlight of our trip to Clare, Ireland

We were there through necessity but will be back by choice. It was fab. Have options at breakfast as vegans was amazing. As there is a vegan chef in the hotel he could be utilised to further expand vegan options on the lunch and dinner menus. A vegan burger would be a good addition. Also a non peanut based vegan curry would be amazing as many people have peanut allergies. Absolutely loved our stay and look forward to returning. The attention to detail is above and beyond as is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. The kid's gift bag was such a lovely surprise. Thank you.

Our stay at the Armada was absolutely amazing!! We had only planned to stay one night but booked a second night because we had such an awesome experience. We actually booked a suite for our second night which became our favorite memory of our 7 days in Ireland. Wonderful staff, awesome onsite bar and two restaurants a cute cafe right outside the building!! Food at the restaurants was dismal but drinks were great and everything else was stellar!!! Note: there is a lot to do from this location. Cliffs of mother (15 min), beach is walking distance and king John’s castle 1 hour. Easily two days here is a great choice!!

We had a verpy enjoyable few hours in Johnny Burkes pub where the craic was great. Breakfast the following morning was delicious, particularly the Plant It Omelette.

Stunning Location, Food is Remarkable

The location is absolutely stunning. The staff is incredibly friendly. Every meal we had there was absolutely a treat. The only knock I would say is that the carpeting throughout the hotel gives a very dated view. Our windows had also accumulated quite a bit of condensation, leading to a bit of mold along the edges.

I booked this based on the wonderful reviews and I feel I stayed at a completely different hotel! To start, the staff were fantastic and very friendly. The hotel room was extremely small and ordinary. There was no view, the pillows were not clean and I have never seen a dirtier carpet than the hallways throughout. They were disgusting. After making reservations for dinner at 8:45, we waited 25 minutes for a table and then waited another 45 for any food. I will say the food was very good and the staff were very apologetic. For $325 euros per night, I was definitely expecting better. I would absolutely not recommend.
