Very nice hotel! It is in the process of renovations but we didn’t feel it at all. We had one of the outdoor suites. Very clean and spacious. Everything looked new. I would ask for some amenities in the bathroom like shower cap and body lotion. Also a phone to reach front desk would be practical. Fitzs restaurant was excellent for dinner as well as breakfast which was very generous.

Lovely hotel in the heart of town with lots of free parking out back. Quick checkin and good size, clean, warm rooms with everything you could need. It’s attached to Fitz’s pub for breakfast, dinner and wonderful live local music. Everything is walkable and the locals are beautiful.

Everything at Hotel Doolin was wonderful, but what truly made our stay exceptional was the kindness we received after an unfortunate accident early in our visit. The staff went above and beyond, checking in on us regularly over the following days and anticipating our needs before we even had to ask. They graciously kept the kitchen open after hours to ensure we were cared for and comfortable. When it came time to leave, we were touched to receive a loaf of freshly baked bread—a simple yet heartfelt gesture that perfectly captured the spirit of genuine Irish hospitality. From our arrival to our farewell, we felt sincerely looked after. Michael and Kristin

If I could give more stars, I would. We rented The Suites at Hotel Doolin, and they could not have been more cozy or more relaxing. The showers are amazing, they have little fireplaces (artificial, but a lovely touch). The staff is exceptional, genuinely kind and professional, especially Aileen (I believe was her name). Everyone went above and beyond to accommodate any request. The hotel is in a great location, with amazing views, little restaurants with live music, a very short drive to Cliffs of Moher, Doolin Cave, Doolin Pier, and amazing little shops. Food is top tier, and allergy-accommodating. I cannot even choose a favorite thing. We will be back!

Fantastic hotel, great experience!

Obsessed with this hotel! They have several restaurants on site, including one that has live music! We stayed in a suite that was incredibly comfortable and spacious. It was well-equipped. The stay included a very tasty free breakfast and we got a nice gift upon check-out. It’s a great location in Doolin, too. I can’t recommend it enough!

Great little hotel in the center of Doolin. We walked to multiple restaurants, the pier for the ferry, and to the trail head to the Cliffs of Moher. TFI bus stop was right outside the hotel. Staff was friendly and breakfast was great. Room was a nice size and quite clean.
