If I could give the Rathbaun Hotel more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel genuinely welcome—warm, kind, attentive, and incredibly hospitable. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and their level of care truly made the stay memorable. Now, the beds… wow. Easily some of the most comfortable bedding I’ve slept in while traveling. Honestly, 10/10 on the bedding alone—soft, cozy, luxurious, and exactly what you want after a long day exploring Ireland. I slept incredibly well. The rooms do have a slightly dated feel, but they were spotless, well-maintained, and very comfortable. I also really appreciated the in-room coffee bar and tea station—such a thoughtful touch that made the space feel even more welcoming. This hotel has charm, comfort, and some of the friendliest hospitality I’ve experienced. I would absolutely recommend the Rathbaun Hotel to anyone visiting the area, and without question, I’ll be staying here again when I return to Ireland!
