"The hotel was incredibly charming! The rooms are comfortable and clean and the staff were beyond friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious. My partner and I both said we’ll return for a longer stay next time!"

"Great hotel and great location"

"For a two-night stay in Clifden, this property offered a convenient and comfortable base overall. The check-in process is self-service, which was a little confusing at first, but the host is available by phone if needed. The room was on the smaller side and a bit dated, and while the bed was adequate for a short stay, it wasn’t the most comfortable. There’s also a wine bar on the ground floor which is associated with the same owner, which appeared to be under renovation during our visit. Breakfast was available for purchase, though we ended up opting for nearby cafés instead. That said, the location is a real highlight—right in the centre of town and within easy walking distance of shops, pubs, cafés, and grocery stores. Parking was also straightforward, with no fees after 6pm, which made things very convenient. Overall, a solid choice for a short stay if you’re prioritising location."

"The hotel was amazing, the rooms and bathrooms were huge and everything you could want. The staff at check in were not great though. The tv didn’t work properly either. We were all looking forward to using the spa facilities but didn’t bother as we were unaware of the swimming cap policy. We all had a really great stay and would definitely come back."

"The discount at check in wasn’t explained we couldn’t use it for breakfast. And the room temp was over 25 c the entire time. And I killed two bugs in the room "

"No refrigerators or microwaves in room. Pool was not open although it was suppoed ot be. Other than that, very nice property."

"Staff were very friendly and helpful. Wildes Restaurant was very enjoyable for breakfast and dinner. Just a couple of criticism, the breakfast order of eggs benedict was served on toasted sour dough which was very difficult to cut through and chew and spoiled the enjoyment of it. I believe that traditional English muffins are a better choice to serve eggs benedict on. Although the rack of lamb was beautifully cooked it still required a steak knife to cut it , but this was not provided. Disappointed with our lunch in the bar area. Beef fat chips were horrible, the fish batter and fish was overcooked. Found the very noisy pipe hammer in our bedroom every morning between 5 a.m and 6 a.m. to be very alarming and annoying. The bar dining area furniture was looking tired and not very clean."

"Exceeded all expectations! So many little details met! Room was very comfortable with great mattress and bedding! Water provided at no additional charge. Car parking free. Food was EXCELLENT!!! Breakfast was gourmet and included in our booking! We also had dinner on the Blackthorn which again was fabulous and the aged prime rib, potatoes with home garlic aoli was 5 star worthy!! Way to go staff of The Twelve!"

"Great location in Cong. Close to everything. Parking wasn't a problem. Very friendly staff. Good breakfast. The only advice is that they don't have an elevator/lift. If you're on the second floor, you will have to haul your luggage up a narrow flight of stairs. Also, like most places in Ireland, no wash clothes. "
