Beds were clean and comfy and I loved that you could set a wake up call from your TV! We were also traveling with a toddler and they were very accomodating to his needs. We were there on a Sunday so the resturant was closed, but they have a big bar area that served until 9pm which was perfect (and includes a kids menu). Less than 10 minutes to the  […] airport.

The hotel was very busy with events it seemed with many young families there. They seem to think it was OK to let their children run wild not only through the rooms upstairs but also through all the halls and in the restaurants. My daughter and I had to change tables 3 times in hopes to get service at pub and finally had to ask at bar. The children […] were tripping up waitstaff and no one did anything to control? Upon checking into hotel I let the reception desk know we were there to catch a 7am flight and that hopefully we would not be disturbed. She assured that she had put us in very private area of hotel. Well, the banging upstairs was crazy when we stepped into room and did not stop well beyond 11pm. I had to call twice into front desk after being awakened abruptly at 11:30 and then again at 1am. I would not recommend for those who need a good night sleep before making long flight back to States. The walls seem paper think and the bathroom was not stocked with shampoo, etc and did not appear to be that clean Read more

I chose this hotel based solely on its proximity to the airport. Hotel staff is very friendly. Their bar serves a tasty seafood chowder. Would stay here for one or two nights. Rooms are spacious. Beds could be more comfortable and not enough electrical outlets. Free bfast was just ok.

Nice hotel with a lively scene in the spacious hotel bar - a lot of locals hanging out there, at least the night I stayed. Shower was a little mildewy but otherwise the room was fine.

Classic wood interior. Tile work, grout in the bathroom a bit shabby, poor workmanship. Otherwise a comfortable overnight stay for Shannon Airport the next day. Within walking distance from the only mall in town, about 10 minutes. Immediately adjacent to a McDonald and a gas (filling) station. About 2 miles or 3 roundabouts from the airport, and about […] 15 - 20 consecutive closely space roundabouts (seemed like a million) from the Cliffs of Mohr to the hotel. The 15-20 roundabouts are just those close to the hotel, excluding several others from the Cliffs of Mohr. Read more

We spent one evening in this very comfortable and clean hotel. The room was well appointed, comfortable and clean. We were greeted by a friendly receptionist who advised us of the dining and breakfast arrangements for the next day. The rates were superb. The only disappointment was the service and quality of the breakfast, but everything else was terrific. […] We would certainly return to the hotel again, but would probably opt for other eating arrangements.

It was a very pleasant place to stay for an overnight between flights. The rooms are spacious and had all the amenities we wanted (hot pot for tea, internet connect in the room, comfy beds, etc.) and the staff was helpful in getting us connected with local transportation. We would definitely stay there again if we're in Shannon. And the price was f […] ine. Read more

Very accommodating. Checked me in off an international flight at 6am with no questions and no additional charge. The Irish Pub-Sophie's Lounge had big portions and great food

Hotel was beautiful but... I picked this hotel for proximity to airport (6 min) for our last night in Ireland. We had to be up for 5:30 am and there was a wedding reception going til 1:00 am. There were drunks sleeping in the hallways and walking around all hours of the night, not to mention the blaring music til 1:00 am. We got NO SLEEP. Earlier in […] the evening we went to the hotel restaurant for dinner. We were told to take a menu and wait for ten minutes until we could be seated. The restaurant was empty!! We ended up leaving and eating in the pub which was slightly better . I had paid for breakfast when I booked the room and thinking since it was near an airport that breakfast would be available at 6 am. I was told there was a continental breakfast at this time and regular breakfast wasn't until 7am (too late). At 6 am we went for are breakfast and found toast, and some cereal. There was only one person working in the entire hotel. The desk clerk had to go into the kitchen to make coffee for us. This was the strangest hotel I have ever stayed in. In conclusion the room was unbearably hot, loud music til 1am, drunks everywhere, no sleep. I would never recommend this hotel. Read more

What a pleasant surprise- expecting an impersonal pre-airport motel - Lavishly furnished in beautiful wood and royal colors. Not a chain. Built by a local builder obviously as a labor of love. Staff very polite and helpful. Dining room, pub food and nice bar area. About 10 minute drive to airport. You can't go wrong here.

The hotel shows it age in the decor. It is very dark with heavy furniture. I had to call the desk at 2:30 am because of noise and they did take care of it.

The hotel itself was beautiful. The rooms were very clean, the only problem we has was that the shower didn't work.

The hotel was convenient to the airport; staff and food was lovely. I was unfortunate enough to leave my overcoat in the wardrobe and it was never found.

The Oak Wood Arms is a very convenient overnighter for flights out of Shannon. We did have an issue with the restaurant. The breakfast buffet is convenient but the restaurant opens very late, 7 o'clock. If you have a flight before, say, 10 o'clock, a bun-on-the-run at the airport may be a better option. The check-in procedure at Shannon is time-consuming […] because you have to go through security screening twice, once European (shoes on) and again for the TSA (shoes off). Read more

Very nice hotel, but difficult to locate-- the 'address' does not exist, according to GPS, apparently street names have changed but the hotel has not. But other than the difficult of locating it, it was an excellent hotel.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The staff could not have been nicer or more helpful. They set up our cab ride and had coffee for us in the morning. The hotel is a bit dated and the walls a bit thin. The room and dining areas were clean and the food was good. The location was perfect for our early flight the next morning.

This hotel is very close to all the attractions. Room was quite large, lots of parking, nice breakfast. Bed could have been a little softer though. Easy to find.

Everything was fine except the shower. Could not regulate the water temp.

For a family of 5, we booked an interconnecting room, but considering the low cost, we thought it might actually turn out to be a suite-type sleeper sofa situation. We were pleasantly surprised to find two very large rooms sleeping 5 in very comfortable beds. Everything about this hotel was pleasant from the the rooms to the full breakfast, which was […] included in the price. We booked it for the night before leaving Ireland, so we wouldn't have to stress about getting to the airport in the morning. We arrived late, not expecting too much, but a place to rest our heads for the night, but upon our arrival, wished we had allowed ourselves more time to relax. Read more

Very convenient to Shannon airport. Not much around the hotel. They have a decent bar in the hotel. The one night I was there though, a wedding was going on that afternoon/evening. The people from the wedding partied all night and you could hear them in the halls. Also, the walls were kind of thin. Otherwise, it was fine.

We had to change rooms after we arrived. The toilet took 10 minutes to work after each flush. The staff was very nice and changed rooms for us. In the new room the walls were dirty and there was a hole in the door where a dead bolt had been. You couldn't see outside the room, but there was still a hole. We only stayed one night and a pre paid. If we […] were going to stay longer we would have changed hotels. There was not any paperwork when we checked out. We were told we didn't need it and it was taken care of. Only hotel I have seen do this. Read more

This is a clean, comfortable hotel with charm close to Shannon Airport. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed the sitting area with chair and loveseat. The staff was very friendly and helpful. A couple of lamps in our room didn't light and there was no air conditioning, but we could open windows. The toilet flush was very loud, which was only a concern […] at night. There were some very noisy patrons, who, unfortunately, knocked on our door at 4 AM as they went down the hall in loud conversation. All-in-all, I would stay here again. Read more

The hotel is nice, very close to Shannon Airport. Staff is nice and we had a nice meal at the restaurant. Not a to walk to but good hop off point for Cliffs of Moher, Lahinch, Ennis or Limerick.

A bit pricey for the quality but otherwise comfortable and nice staff.

The shower had mold all over the tile and the furniture had burn holes in them from cigarettes although the room was a non smoking room. It did not smell of smoke. The beds were comfortable. Also the only shampoo/conditioner that was offered in the shower was an all in one body and hair wash. There were children running up and down the main hallway […] screaming late into the night. It was very hard to get to sleep. The decor was lovely and the staff was very helpful. Great location to the airport as well. Read more

Very Good Experiance and had a very Good Time. Very Nice Hotel.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We had an incredibly frustrating time driving round and round because the hotel is not on Airport Road as both hotels.com and our GPS said. The woman at the front desk acknowledged that there is a problem and that other guests were just as lost as we were although they don't seem to be doing anything about clearing up the issue. The hotel itself is […] rather fun inside with antiques and a Renaissance feel to it although with an excellent business center which you also have to have directions to find. The room was nice and clean with great wifi, so so beds and the most baffling shower head I've ever encountered that truly needs instructions in the bath so you can use it properly. I'm usually not picky about breakfast and just grateful if they have hard boiled eggs available but all they had were the most gelatinous, disgusting scrambled eggs I've ever tasted (and I've been around the world enough to have had some nasty ones). What they did have was a phenomenal pastry chef! We hadn't had a decent croissant the whole trip and these were heavenly as were the fruit pastries. This was our stopover before an early flight the next morning and I was literally on the plane back to the States wishing I had pocketed a bunch of those raspberry delights. Yum, yum. Read more

I stayed for three nights at this hotel and thought it was a great value. It has an old, dark-wood feel to it; my room, however, was quite modern, clean, and comfortable.
