Staff were friendly. We had purchased seaside suite and the views on Expedia were not same as we experienced. Half of room faced hotel parking lot. Other half gave partial view of ocean. It was advertised as full view of ocean. Price we paid did not match room we received. Breakfast was amazing with full service and hot/cold options. Had seat facing sea and it was beautiful. Grounds in back sit right on ocean inlet which was stunning. Great location near cliffs of MOHER.

The location of this hotel is both spectacular and dramatic. We booked the sea view superior room. We were allocated room 147. What a room, if it’s not the best in the hotel I would like to see what is. Amazing wrap around views of the coast and a copper tub in the corner of the room to admire them from. Outstanding.! Everything about this hotel was wonderful and would normally be a 5* review. The only let down was our room service experience, food order delivered barely warm at best, and incomplete. The waiter was miserable and clumsy. He would benefit from further training, and bringing up to the same standards of customer service as his colleagues. Great hotel, and location. Looking forward to returning soon.

Wow wow wow this is a lovely hotel. The location, the vibe and staff are amazing. Three days staying at this hotel and didn’t want to leave. If you get a chance to stay please do. The rooms are spacious so beautifully designed. The bed was so comfortable. Love it’s so sustainable water stations on every floor and great that you get a little jug of milk instead of those horrible plastic sachets. The food is incredible especially breakfast. The Guinness good too in the pub. The view of the Atlantic Ocean would make your heart sing. It’s the ultimate venue for a wedding. I’m already booking up my next stay in a couple of months. Well done to the Armada Hotel team take a well deserved bow. Irish welcome at its finest.

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.

The stay at the Armada Hotel at Spanish Point was excellent. The service was first-class, and the staff at the reception and in the restaurant were not only professional but also very humorous and friendly. The food at the restaurant Airllween, where the seafood dishes were very testy, deserves a special mention. The hotel's location offers beautiful sunsets over the water from the meadow, making it a great place to be. All in all, a perfect stay!
