The Connemara Hostel (Sleepzone) West of Ireland

Overview

The Connemara Hostel is the perfect base for groups to explore the breath taking landscape of the West of Ireland and the Wild Atlantic Way. Overlooking the Killary - Ireland’s only fjord - and surrounded by the peaks of Mweelrea, the Twelve Bens and Maumturk mountains in the centre of Connemara, it is one of the most spectacularly situated hostels in Ireland.

Groups wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle, just love the remote and stunning location of this hostel.

 

This hostel was originally built in the late 1800’s and was formerly a hunting lodge. It has now been tastefully converted into one of the most cosy group hostels along the Wild Atlantic Way.

 

The Connemara hostel is a Member of the award winning Sleepzone Hostels group in Galway and Clare.
