The Screebe!

A joyous experience with a wonderful staff. Stayed in Room 4 and the history made it that much more interesting. We will surely book again on our next adventures to Ireland.

Very welcoming Staff! Picturesque location with views of the Atlantic from our room! Spa facilities were great too. Salt water swimming pool is warm and comfortable to swim in, as well as the use of the sauna and steam room, there are some nice walking spots around the property too and coral beaches only a 10 min drive away. Would highly recommend to anyone passing or driving the coastal route to/from Clifden to stop by as you won’t be disappointed!

Have to say our booking was last minute due to lack of availability in Galway, but SO glad we did it! Ursula, the owner was amazing! We got in late, we were tired and frazzled, but she managed to get us settled and made to feel welcomed & comfortable immediately! Would highly recommend!

It's a fabulous place in a beautiful setting. The food in their restaurant is great and the staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive. The only reason I gave less than five stars on property condition is because the rooms don't have temperature controls or even fans to move air. Furthermore, the windows don't have screens so they don't want you to open them and let the midges in. Maybe it was just our room. That said, I would certainly stay here again. It's a very well kept and we'll staffed place in a unique setting right on the water.

Screebe House is a beautifully peaceful getaway. We had a gorgeous view of the water. At night looking across the water was very little light. It was so peaceful. The food was very good with great portion size. Breakfast was included with a small buffet plus a made to order hot option. Dinner was a 2 or 3 course choice. I did an appetizer and main and walked away full and satisfied. The second evening we let them know that we were exploring and went to Kylemore Abbey and the Clifdon. We did not use the spa or pool but we did check out the pool and it was in a lovely spot (indoor and saltwater) we did go down to the pier and dipped our toes into the cold sea. There is a ladder for those adventurous ones who want to swim. I would definitely recommend the Screebe House to anyone looking to get away from it all. My only complaint is no air conditioning- but that is only because we come from an area that everything is air conditioned. But I would go back in a heartbeat!

It has been about 8 months since I stayed at the Screebe in the priciest seaview room. This place could be better. The most unpleasant experience was that our room washcloths were "made" by cutting old towels down to size with two sides of the cloth just frayed. It was very odd, but it seemed wrong. I saw a maid working in another room wash out and hand dry a drinking glass with one of the hand towels. The hardware for the shower was broken... feeble would be a better word. We stayed in March and it took several tries to get heat sent to the room on the first night. The coffee service is in a hallway landing and it is a very loud Keurig machine, so we got to hear everyone making coffee in the morning. The spa towels were tired, brown, with the embroidered girdles shrinking signifying their age. The hot tub was nice, but its all hands-on to remove the cover. Not something that a senior person can do alone. Lastly the dinner was superb on both evenings, but the breakfast was inconsistent and on both days, my order which was to be two eggs was just one... the smaller of the options. the buffet meat looked a little bit like it came from a LIDL packet of meats and wasn't exactly abundant (which is ok considering the small number served), and all the plates were from Ikea... a place like this speaks to more authenticity. The staff was very amiable though. All that I mention are easily improved. Otherwise excellent place.

We had the most amazing stay at the Screebe House. This place is absolutely beautiful and serene. We could have spent hours just sitting and enjoying the scenery and grounds. Our dinner was first class as was our breakfast. Highly recommend!

The location and situation of this hotel is stunning and the main house is nice - the lounge and dining room are lovely. However this place is massively OVERPRICED! My room was quite small and was on the ground floor at the bottom of the stairs so was noisy as other guests went up and down stairs. There were no tea and coffee making facilities in the room - and if this was available elsewhere nobody told me. The bathroom was big but quite shabby (not in a good way) with mould around the shower - not what I would expect from a hotel this expensive. The spa is really shabby. The pool and sauna are functional but the surrounding areas are a bit of a mess - for example the door to the pool has rooted away and signs on the doors have been printed on a computer and sellotaped to the doors! I wouldn't mind in a cheaper hotel but I paid over 400 euro for dinner, bed and breakfast - just not good enough. Dinner was 77 euro for 2 courses and a glass of wine. It was fine but not worth the money. Service was very variable - some of the staff clearly not having much of a clue. I was travelling alone and went down for breakfast early - I was the only one in there. I went to sit by the window to enjoy the view but was told my table had been set up elsewhere so i couldn't sit by the window. I could have argued but by this point I just wanted to leave. Very disappointing for the money

Wonderful hotel. Great restaurant plus a traditional pub with live music. We were spoiled by a free upgrade to a suite. Amazing ocean view. Nice lawn/porch area between hotel and the ocean to sit and enjoy the setting.
