This was a fantastic boutique hotel. Service was amazing and parking was $3 euro a day. The only thing I would have to say is that the beds were too soft and not comfortable in my opinion. If you prefer a firmer mattress I would not recommend this one. Otherwise it was perfect.

We were on a tour that took us to Westport, that had us staying right on loud and busy Octagon. We were happy to move down the street, after our tour ended, to Clew Bay. Very kind staff, EXCELLENT full breakfast (tho' the hours did not work well for us, only 8 - 10 am each day, and we had early calls... ) and quiet. Furnishings a bit tired? but staff were nice and helpful. Hopefully, hotel will upgrade beds and carpets in the near future.

There’s also a big supermarket down the block - so convenient. The only negative was our room faced the busy street, and you can hear the 6am traffic. Ask for a room at the back of the hotel!

I would have rated the property 'EXCELLENT' had it not been for the 'European' style shower which covers only 1/2 of the shower opening and hence the floor gets washed as well as your body. The restaurant, MADDEN'S, is excellent for both breakfast and dinner. Note to other Americans: The Black and White 'Puddings' served with the large b-fast are an acquired taste.

Reception and especially breakfast bar staff were beyond helpful. The ladies at the breakfast bar are polite, helpful and made sure that we got delicious breakfast quicklyandthat everythingwas just right from a very good selection. This hotel definitely found excellent staff to hire.

The bar and restaurant in the evening were severely understaffed and it was overwhelming for them with the re-opening of dining and hotel dining.

Overall the staff and hotel were fantastic. The breakfast was great. The only negative was the dinner we had in the restaurant. It may be a symptom of the times, but the \"Black Angus\" Burger looked suspiciously like a bought-in, frozen burger complete with fake grill bar marks and the Green Curry was thin and watery. Not what was expected of a hotel restaurant with associated prices.

Wonderful Westport.

It was my first time at Westport, what a treat!
The town was perfect for me, plenty of shops, bars, walks, the food was amazing!
I found The Porterhouse bar very friendly.
If you are looking for a challenge I highly recommend climbing Croagh Patrick Mountain. Unfortunately the weather was bad, which meant we didn’t manage to see many of the amazing views. However I have decided to Visit Westport again next year at Easter time, as I would like to try and climb the mountain again, but hopefully experience better views.
The staff were very welcoming at Clew Bay, especially the breakfast waiting staff.
Overall the hotel was pleasant.
Just one slight thing regarding the room, as a couple we were given a family room. However I would have preferred a double room with a better view.

Good option for Westport

Nice place in the middle of Westport. Location can't be beat for walking to restaurants and pubs. Lobby pub stayed open very late, which was convenient. Cooked to order breakfast. Rooms were a little dated, but clean and comfortable. Appreciated the king sized bed. Our room only opened a few inches to a courtyard, so no view or airflow. The room became quite stuffy given that it was quite chilly outside -- a fan or other air circulation would have helped a lot. Perhaps outward facing rooms got more air from open windows. Parking is in park and pay muni lot either behind or across the street from hotel, but very close and easy. Breakfast and checkout staff handled tour bus staying there efficiently enough not to disturb us.
