Breakfast was delicious,good quality food well cooked and served.our sta

Michael Ireland

The rooms were very comfortable and the location was excellent, right in the centre of the town. All the staff were so friendly and helpful. We had a lovely dinner in the restaurant as well. We'd definitely come back again!

Mark Ireland

Wonderful location and staff and owners were very courteous.

Melonie United States of America

The family that owns the hotel were very friendly and accommodating. The pub was great fun and food was good. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Near several beautiful sights.

Tara United Kingdom

Great stay. Be prepared for music every night, which can keep you up if you’re trying to sleep but also fun if you are staying up.

Ray United States of America

Very pleasant family run hotel. Rooms decor is quite dated but you have all you need and it's very clean and quite comfortable. Good bar/restaurant downstairs. Good atmosphere and staff are very friendly

Osul Ireland

The owners of this hotel are awesome and so friendly! We could not get over how lovely they were the entire time. They have Irish music every night and we had a great dinner there as well. Parking is not right next to the hotel but there is a free town parking lot very close by down the street. We stayed here one night so we could wake up early to see Cliffs of Moher before the crowds arrived; it is an easy 10-15 minute drive away.

Aimorris Germany

The room is clean and comfortable. There is a restaurant and live music at night. The village is small and not much to do but the it’s worth the visit because the landscape around the area is incredible. Breakfast is an extra charge.

Kathy United States of America

The staff were all wonderful, the facilities were very clean and welcoming. We ate a hearty and delicious breakfast there on both days of our stay and had a delicious dinner while enjoying the traditional Irish music band that played nightly. I would definitely recommend the Rathbaun .

The most renowned hotel in Co. Clare for brilliant live Irish music and song. Offering value for money, with a genuinely personal, safe and helpful service.

Full Irish and continental breakfasts are cooked to order each day from 08:00 until 12:00. Guests can enjoy homemade brown bread, jams and fruit juices. Hearty food with generous portions is served each day in the restaurant and bar.

Located in the famous Burren Region, you can enjoy the Cliffs of Moher, Aran Islands, caves, fishing, surfing, golfing, hiking, pony trekking and much more.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.3 for a two-person trip.
