Belle maison bien décorée et très propre. Petit déjeuner très qualitatif, varié et en grande partie cuisiné maison. Hôte très disponible. Petits commerces à peine à 5 mn à pieds.
S'il faut trouver quelques petits détails à améliorer :
- litterie un peu bruyante dans notre chambre familiale (ressorts fatigués ?),
- pour ceux qui y sont sensibles, la lumière qui éclaire l'extérieur côté ruisseau une partie de la nuit peu gêner. Mais elle doit pouvoir facilement être éteinte sur demande ou occultée par un store.
- le débit de la connexion WiFi pas toujours suffisant pour utilisations "gourmandes'.

We were beyond pleased with our stay at Salmon Weir Lodge. Rachel was so kind, attentive, and full of wonderful information about the area. She made us feel right at home and we wish we would’ve stayed longer. All spaces were sparkling clean and had every amenity you could think of. Breakfast was delicious and bountiful! Wonderful location for exploring Galway and the countryside or just stay and enjoy the water view from the patio and stroll into the quaint city of Cong.

The breakfast was outstanding, large range of fresh fruits, juices, cereals, savoury tarts, hot if required, quality pastries. The views from our windows upstairs over the garden & trees. The stone fence in the yard was on the edge of the river with ducks swimming around. The hostess was generous with the use of her sitting room.
The high bed with too many cushions

The property was gorgeous, right along the river. Inside the home was lovely as well. Rachael was such a welcoming host, we felt very comfortable there, and would definitely stay there on a return trip to Ireland.

Besides the optimal position, the room was very nice as well as the house. You can see the attention to the details from the bathroom to the breakfast room.
Also Rachel went above and beyond to help my parents (they don't speak English but yet they could feel looked after).

From this location, it is walking distance to Cong village. Breakfast was well done with plenty of options to choose from. The place was well laid out, providing ease in coming and going as needed. The host went over and beyond in resolving our particular needs.

The location was perfect, just a couple of minutes walk to where we needed to be.
We couldn’t believe the array of options for breakfast, so many breads, pastries, cereals, fresh fruit and yoghurt. Avocado, eggs and meat etc. There really was something to suit everyone. Rachael was very friendly and relaxed and she made us feel very welcome.

Location was very close to the town center. Made it easy to walk to the town. Also I was very appreciative that Rachel went out of her way to get some gluten free options for my wife.

The breakfast is an absolute highlight of a stay with Salmon Weir! It is a bounty of delicious options and flavors to meet anyone’s breakfast preferences. The rooms are super cozy and decorated with a welcoming flair. The location of Salmon Weir Lodge is perfect for exploring the village of Cong and easily walking to nearby pubs and restaurants. We also used Salmon Weir Lodge as a base to explore Ashford Castle, Cleggan and Inishbofin Island, Burren National Park and Connemara National Park. The hosts are warm, welcoming and super friendly.
Our trip idid not allow us to stay longer at Salmon Weir.

Lovely clean & comfortable accommodation with a superb host whose thought of everything a pair of touring wild brown trout anglers / motorcyclists / entomologists could ever need. A breakfast buffet which included Rachael’s take on the ‘ Irish Breakfast ‘ complete with a salsa dip! Don’t wish to say anything else on that as it’s for others to discover. Likely to be one of the most talked about stays in Cong since ‘ The Quiet Man ‘ was filmed once the word is out, I kid you not! Will go back as a touring couple with my wife in future. Godspeed

We loved our stay at Salmon Weir. Our beds were very comfortable and we had a nice, airy and clean room. The breakfast was fantastic, a feast with so much to choose from savory to sweet, from hot to cold, really a wonderful start of the day. Rachel, our host, made us feel most welcome and was very helpful with suggestions about day trips in the area.

The location & view of the river! A beautiful home that is tastefully decorated. Loved meeting Rachael & her dog, Penny. A scrumptious breakfast & nice touch with a box of chocolates in the room.
Would have liked tea & coffee facilities in the room.

Salmon Weir is such a lovely place. It's in a great location and very tranquil. I can't wait to go back. It's conveniently located near the Ashford Estate for any sightseeing too. Rachael is also lovely and so helpful!
I wish the wi-fi was a bit stronger but it was otherwise a great overall experience.
