Ross Lake House Hotel Description

Guests may enjoy a tempting variety of Irish food beautifully prepared with ingredients from the nearby Connemara hills, streams and lakes as well as fish straight from the Atlantic. A high quality buffet breakfast is served each morning and a 5-course quality Irish dinner menu is served every evening in the Connacht Room.

This splendid 19th Century Georgian House was built in 1850. The charming Galway hotel is a former estate house for the landed gentry, who prized it for its serenity. Set amidst rambling woods and rolling lawns, it is truly a haven of peace and tranquillity. The 2-storey historical hotel comprises 13 rooms, a lobby, TV lounge, bar, breakfast room, dining room and car park. Guests can also take advantage of Internet access. Room and laundry service are available for an additional fee.

Comfort and good taste are reflected in the 13 spacious en suite guestrooms and suites which have been individually decorated, blending the past and present and all designed to make your stay more enjoyable. The elegant bedrooms reflect the Georgian period but also provide modern comforts such as direct dial phone, satellite/cable television, radio, central heating and hairdryer. Rooms come with a bath, shower, double or king-size bed and ironing set.

Tranquil walks through the untamed Connemara countryside, beautiful unspoilt beaches, championship golf courses, excellent game and coarse fishing are all available nearby for our guests. The golf course at Oughterard is around 4 km away (for a fee). Tennis facilities are also available.
