We have 12 bedrooms with private bathrooms which can be reserved for Hostel or Self Catering needs.These are decorated to Hotel Spec and some sleep up to 6 people. The typical Backpacker Hostel rooms have a couple of bunk beds and a double bed. These rooms work great for groups and families as well as backpackers who want to visit the Connemara National Park.
For Self Catering, The Lodge can be booked either as a top floor (6 ensuite bedrooms and Kitchen / Dining room) or for the entire Lodge (12 bedrooms). Mike also has a coastal apartment that is rented out for self catering and is located 5 minutes drive away.
The Hostel and Restaurant is about the Welcome, and the fact that we want your Connemara experience to be the best it can possibly be.Our dedicated concierge can help you with whatever you need, be it a map and a weather forecast, or fishing trip and everything in between.

After backpacking the world from the age of 21- 28 I came back to Connemara which is where I am from and built a Lodge that is comfortable for fellow travelors that ticks all the boxes.
The Lodge Restaurant and Bar has a great festive atmosphere in summer with plenty of live music. In winter it becomes a cosy haven where the locals drop in for a coffee, and happily engage. It is one of the most friendly places you will and where you get close to Mike, Hilda, Vicky, Janet who work the restaurant and reception like it is there own home.
Specificationwise, this hostel has 3 large kitchens & 11 en-suite rooms. Rest assured, your stay here will be one of the best you’ll have in Ireland.

There are 3 large well-equipped kitchens, 3 dining areas, a barbecue balcony and 2 sitting/TV/reading rooms. A laundry room and the Internet are also available.
