Lough Inagh Lodge

We had a lovely stay at Lough Inagh Lodge. The staff were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The on-site dining room was excellent, every meal was delicious and beautifully prepared. While the rooms are a bit outdated in terms of decor, they were clean, cozy, and perfectly comfortable for a relaxing stay. The charm of the lodge and the stunning surrounding landscape made for a memorable visit. We'd happily return.

Lough Inagh Lodge is a wonderful old lodge filled with charm and fabulous staff. The staff could not have been nicer. The rooms were spacious and comfy and the bathroom and dressing room were well appointed. The common areas are so charming and inviting...wish we could have stayed longer!||We dined in the main dining room one night and in the tavern another night and LOVED the food and atmosphere. We also booked our room with a breakfast each morning and they had a lovely selection to chose from and all were delicious. ||The location is all by itself in Connemara park and beautifully located across the street from the lake. We just loved the secluded location. It is really peaceful and relaxing.||It was a short drive to Kylemore Abbey and about 1 hour from Galway.

We stayed here for three nights last week (July 2025). This was our first destination on a 16-day holiday in the west of Ireland. We were a bit early to arrive, and Maire was kind enough to make us lunch, let us warm-up with tea (the weather was rough when we arrived!), and they even had our rooms available earlier than check-in. That was a wonderful first impression. The rooms were beautiful, clean, and very cozy. The view from this place is absolutely stunning - the pictures give you an idea but there is no substitute for being there. Dominic even phoned one of the local pubs and made a dinner reservation for us. Thomas the bartender was also a great guy to chat with, and he gave us suggestions for our next destination in Galway. The wait staff at breakfast were also very friendly, extremely helpful, and attentive. This place is going to be difficult to top, and it's possible we were spoiled on our first stop here! I give my absolute highest recommendation to The Lough Inagh Lodge, and we would 100% stay another three nights (minimum) again if we are ever in Connemara again. Thank you to the entire staff at Lough Inagh Lodge, you know how to run a top notch hotel/Lodge. 10/10 A+++. The Camiola Family

We stayed only one night at the Lough Inagh Lodge. The room was very large and had a nice sitting area as well as a table at the Bay window. It had a nice view over the lough. Of course, being built back in the 1880's (obviously refurbished multiple times) it was quaint and had that old-world feel. A little worn, but that was part of the ambiance. By location it is kinda out there away from it all. So we had dinner and breakfast there. The food was standard. There is a mini walk across the street back and forth +/- 200m along the lough coast. We also went south about 300m and then there is a really nice hike on a back road into the valley.

From the welcome on arrival to waving us off on departure this is a very special place to stay. The location is stunning on the lake with lots of hill walking all around . We spent two nights here in May in the beautiful weather which was a bonus . Food was really really good . Lovely reception rooms with a fire at night and Thomas the bar man was full of information and friendly chat . Most of the other guests were returning visitors some have been coming over twenty years . Really nice atmosphere-would definitely recommend staying here.

Dinner was superb. Fresh, tasty and beautifully cooked in an old world dining room. The rooms are good but the atmosphere is top class. We will be back for the food.

The welcome, the experience, the Irish welcome when it is really genuine , |We loved our visit and we look forward to our return in the Autumn. |The beauty of Lough Inagh and Derryclare Lake are incomparible, even in Connemara. |Ideally situated near Clifden and Kylemore,a perfect place to stay

A very special family run hidden Gem .|The diner was on par with any Michelin star I have encounter on my travels and and the location and the sense of peace makes leaving difficult .. however it was the warm welcome feeling on arrival that assured me i would enjoy my stay !

This place was a lifesaver during my 2009 hike near the Connemara Way. Friends dropped me off so I could hike the tallest peak in Galway, gave me a brightly colored vest, and suggested I hitchhike back. I was never comfortable with that idea, so I trudged along the country roads, passing beautiful rain drizzled scenery, and many painted sheep. Eventually, I had to give up. I came across the Lough Inagh Lodge and it seemed the perfect resting spot. Perhaps they would have a phone? They did. Perhaps I could get food? Hearty brown Irish bread, delicious butter, soup, and a celebratory Irish cheese plate. It's a wonderful life trekking through Ireland.
