8/10 Very Good

The staff was very kind and accommodating. The premises was quiet and smelled very nice. My sink did have a leak, the tile of the bathtub was falling off, and my trash cans already had trash in them. But honestly, I’d just stayed in a hostel and was thrilled to have a room to myself.

I was made to feel very welcome from the minute I arrived until I left. Nothing is too much trouble. My room was very clean and comfortable. Good choice of food on the menu. They were happy to cook a lovely meal for myself and family. I would stay there again. You do need a car as there are no pavements and it is situated on a busy main road, that was the only downside.

Beautiful Accommodations and Friendly Owners
I had a wonderful week stay at The Lanterns Hotel which is in the Tarbert countryside along the "Wild Atlantic Way" overlooking the Shannon River. I had a beautiful room with a 4 poster bed and the owners, Ishi and Raj, were so friendly and accommodating. They knew I didn't have a car so they made arrangements with the most wonderful local woman to show me the sites and she turned out to be full of information and better than the best tour guide I could have ever found. There is a bar/restaurant right on site for meals and a short drive down the road will get you to the ferry to Claire or the quaint little town of Glin. The People of Glin were so warm and welcoming I felt like I knew them forever. I would do this trip again and not change 1 thing. It was just perfect!

Great Hotel & Not too Expensive
This hotel has new owners who are working hard to make this a great place to stay they were very friendly they had a restaurant which was very convenient saved us going looking for somewhere to eat. Our room was large with a huge bed which was very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay here.

4/10 Fair

This hotel is in a state of disrepair. The grounds need a lot of work, the items such as plumbing are are outdated. We contracted for a double bed but were given a room with 4 singles. This made the room crowded and cluttered. Tv reception was not good. The Inn keeper was not a native so could not give us advice on what to see in the community. A lot of stuff in the halls and the grounds.

I was not impressed with the hotel. Only recently reopened after being closed for some time. New owners don't seem to have the means to run it properly

2/10 Poor

Worst customer service Iv ever experienced
After paying for the hotel and having the booking confirmation the hotel owner said they were overbooked and I could not stay. I showed her my booking confirmation and said that the money was taken out of my account. I left annoyed as I had travelled a long way without anywhere to stay. She than rang me again repeating herself saying we could not stay there. She did not offer us accommodation anywhere else after us traveling. She was extremely rude and aggressive on the phone and when I said I would be writing a review on this experience she told me I could write 100 reviews that she didn’t care and it wouldn’t get me a room for the night so there would be no point. In the end she just hung up the phone on me, not a nice way to treat your paying customers. Also to add when I went to reception in the first place to check in I was waiting 10 minutes before someone even came to greet me it seems very disorganized I wouldn’t not recommend.
