In The centre of a buzzy little town which suited us perfectly

No cooked breakfast, no nice outside area, overpriced, noisy

We enjoyed our stay and dinner in pub the first night. We enjoyed the breakfast. The staff was helpful. The only thing I would improve is a place to get water or soda in a machine. We were parched when we got there and there was no bottled water in the room. Pillows were very flat and well worn. Room was nice. Glad we picked this hotel. Close to park to rent bikes.

I was not able to sleep well because the room was very warm. We were not able to open a window near the bed because the handle was broken off. When we inquired about not being able to cool off the room we were told they did not no when the lock would be fixed. We were NOT offered another room despite our complaint of it being unpleasantly warm and not conducive to sleeping well.Also the fan in the room was broken.
The host was polite and kind. She willingly brought another fan and some ice to our room.
Breakfast was only continental style with limited options.

Kinvara is a fantastic base for exploring the cliffs, walkingand Aran islands. A beautiful village with great dining and pub and music. The guesthouse is modest but quite ok for a few nights and convenient to everything

We showed up after 9 pm and Keyla stayed late to get us checked in. Extremely nice and helpful.
Fresh towels and beds made each day. Breakfast (included) was good and staff were very nice and accommodating. 3 or 4 pubs to choose from within 150 meters. We used this as a jump off point for Galway about 30 km away.

We were late checking in, but the worker left me a note either our keys and instructions. It was wonderful. It was super close to the ocean and a 3 minute walk to a wonderful pub that had amazing food and live music. It was wonderful.

The Kinvara Guesthouse is a jewel. It's big-city lodging in a small, cozy Irish town. It's the kind of town one sees in Irish travel books and brochures. Parking is available in front of the guesthouse, on the street, essentially. They have an elevator (lift) which was a big help for my wife (and me with our luggage). We had a huge room on the second floor with a view of the "plaza" in front of the guesthouse. The bathroom was more than adequate. Our only complaint is that there were no wash cloths (but none of the Irish hotels we used had wash cloths - must be an Ireland thing). The included breakfast buffet was delicious. No white or black pudding or sausage or fried egg, but had more than enough other choices to be satisfying. We liked the location very much. The nearly lake and Dunguaire Castle is very picturesque. Pier Head restaurant has delicious fare. Galway is a short 25-minute drive on the motorway. Even the drive to Rosaveel Harbout, to catch the ferry ot Innishmore, was quite easy from Kinvara. While there are other pubs in town, we thought Tully's Bar, just around the corner from Kinvara Guesthouse, was a joy. They had live music two nights in a row - bluegrass one night, traditional Irish the next - by musicians who just showed up to "play for fun." In any case, Kinvara Guesthouse made for a very relaxing, pleasurable, and comfortable three-night stay.

Unassuming entrance reveals a very high quality B&B. Close walk to multiple pubs with food. Sits over a grocery store. We used the free laundry room. One of our nicest stays in Ireland!

We had a wonderful stay in this hotel. The staff were so helpful from check in through to breakfast the following morning. We would definitely recommend it! The area is superb for visiting Galway one day and then doing the coast to Co Clare the next day. Thanks again!

A very nice, simple hotel with very kind staff. Breakfast was good - not outstanding, but perfectly satisfactory. The location was lovely - very quiet and walkable.

We could wish nothing more from Kinvara Guesthouse.
Spotlessly clean, rooms immaculate and generous bathroom. Easy and safe parking and convenient for walks along around the quaint harbour.
Breakfast will satisfy most tastes except the carb loaders!
