Beautiful hotel, lovely grounds, great facilities and amazing breakfast. However there is an IPAS centre in the grounds. The residents of the IPAS centre pretty much take over the outdoor areas such as the play park and crazy golf. I paid quite a bit of money for this hotel and the facilities and was completly unaware of this when booking, for this reason i wouldnt return

Lovely to be upgraded to a better room and nice views and super food in dinning areas. Only small concern was that the cupboard holding the fridge needed better ventilation so the fridge would work - when the door was shut it all got very hot making the fridge less efficient.

An unforgettable family stay

We had a truly wonderful time at this hotel. The location was perfect and absolutely beautiful — ideal for a family getaway. Our children loved everything about it! They had so much fun playing mini-golf and spending time at the kids’ playground. They truly had a blast. The hotel itself was lovely, clean, and welcoming, with every detail thought out for both adults and children. The restaurant was excellent — delicious food, great atmosphere, and even the kids enjoyed their meals, which doesn’t happen often! (Kids stay kids :) ) The hospitality was flawless from start to finish. The staff were incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. It was such a fantastic experience that we’ll have to come back. Thank you for making our stay so perfect!

Family Break

We love everything this hotel has to offer for our family. It has everything you need for an enjoyable family break. Beautiful location, great food and a lovely atmosphere. We were very happy with our stay. Never one to complain I wish the hotel would install new door stoppers to prevent the room doors closing so loudly, that’s the only negative issue we had. Constantly hearing doors closing so loudly is not what you want to hear while on a break. Overall a lovely hotel

The property is well appointed and characterful. The staff are engaging - a delight to work with. The dining area are their own reward - especially at breakfast. The evening mean will benefit from review - a sole salad option! 😞 The lockers at the Spa require repair - lockers that don't!? Otherwise the Spa is fabulous. 😀

My niece received a surprise proposal at Breaffy (both from the US and the 5th generation to be engaged on County Mayo soil) - both from the US and the staff was outstanding in their support. The staff , the grounds, the house, the engagement celebration and the follow up dinner that night was outstanding. Also really appreciated the lap pool and swam a half mile. If I have one complaint there was only one window to air my room out and it took a long time for it to get unstuffy. And this was at the beginning of May. Best to have more air circulation available- especially during the warmer months. Thank you Breaffy, for such a memorable time in every way.

A lot more pros than cons

The hotel itself is fabulous, beautiful setting and wonderful grounds. The food for all meals was exceptional, but there was a bit of a delay with one of our kids meals. The rooms were spotless and beds really comfortable. A couple of issues, was the very noisy hallways at night, doors banging very loudy and children and adults very noisy up and down the hallways. The hall and stairs carpets badly needed to be hoovered and this didn't improve over our stay. The pool was quite cool but the changing areas were great. The staff were all very friendly and we would stay again.
