Aran Islands hotel guide. Independent hotel in Aran Islands, County Galway

"Parking was super easy, the front desk staff was amazing, breakfast menu was great. The food tasted fantastic. Once ordered, it came out quickly. The only downside was that the tables were not cleaned after people left so new folks finding tables at breakfast was really tough. There was a point one day where there literally wasn’t one clean table in the entire, large, downstairs area, yet there were only a handful of parties eating. We were glad we were seated already. My other concern was a bit more disturbing but also easy to fix if somebody pays attention to this; the breakfast AND dinner staff would bus tables, using their bare hands to pick dirty napkins and dirty silverware off used plates etc, and then without hand sanitizer or ANYTHING, would grab new silverware and set new tables. This absolutely grossed me out and was alarming since I noticed the occasional guest coughing, sneezing or wiping their nose with their napkins. I couldn’t begin to imagine what germs were passed along and was kind of horrified. The room was nice. The views were great and the walking path and spa was lovely. I’d still stay again. "
