    Although listed as B&B, breakfast is not included in the online price. No biggie, just be sure you add breakfast at time of booking or later through messaging on this App

    Excellent host. Friendly and well cared for

    The central heating was not working but the owner quickly supplied a portable heater which worked very well. The road works throughout the town was a nightmare to negotiate, no fault of the b&b of course,

    Location was excellent for our short visit to Athlone, close to all amenities on offer. Room was comfortable.

    The kitchen area smelt drainy. The shower cubicle folding door in the en-suite is broken and should be repaired or replaced without delay as it cannot be used properly. I would be ashamed to ask guests to use this but it did appear to have been worn out over time and had clearly been broken for a while which is surprising given how well presented and cleaned the rest of the place was.

    The apartment is a short walk from the Arch B&B itself. The communications with the owner and with the manager Mohammed were excellent and helpful. The apartment is well located and tea sugar and milk pots were provided which is helpful for shortstayers. The fittings in the apartment are a bit tired but the rooms were spotless and the beds and towels attractively presented and comfortable. Mohamed kindly stored our two bicycles for us.

    We didn’t have netflix on our tv as it said online but we ended up just using our phones so made no difference really!

    Very good room! right in the middle of town so was very helpful- really liked the fact there was no curfew.

    Housekeeping missed our room one day, and bins were just too full to my liking. Every time when they cleaned everything was done well.

    Our room was quiet enough to sleep. It had nice refreshments, teas n coffes etc.

    It was expensive for what it was! I think if you are going to call yourself a B & B then breakfast should be a given and not an additional extra! We paid €160 for one night which was expensive and more of a hotel price! The rooms are not sound proof so we could hear the neighbours snoring but thankfully we're heavy sleepers and they weren't too loud.

    The room was spotless and the location is in the centre of the town next to the shopping centre. Staff were really nice and there was adequate parking that we were able to keep the car in after check out while we popped into the shopping centre! Great location for shopping in Athlone or if you need to be really central. Towels and toiletries were provided also and were a good standard.

    Kitchen sink tap leaking and needed to be fixed but wasn't during our 4 day stay - everything else was good

    Roomy lounge and well appointed kitchen and appliances. Large double Bed was firm and extremely comfortable. The rooms were very well cleaned daily - free parking was secure and close by. Staff were friendly and helpful. Nice restaurants and pubs in Athlone which is a great base to head out and see sights across Ireland.

    We stayed at Arch house for one night this week. We had been travelling for a while and this was one of the best places we stayed. The location is excellent and close to all Athlone has to offer. There is free on site parking. The room was very comfortable and quiet at the back of the house. We had a lovely welcome from Maureen and her team. The breakfast was delicious and cooked fresh and there was plenty of choice. We will definitely stay here again, highly recommended. Thanks to all at Arch House.
