We booked out the whole hostel for our church's weekend away, and we couldn't be happier! Micheal is an amazing host, going out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. The hostel itself is well equipped for singles, couples, and families- there was a perfect room for everyone. The location is perfect: nestled in a tiny... More

Another great stay in the Mount Brandon Hostel in Cloghane. Hostel is warm, clean, with good facilities and very helpful staff who make you feel right at home. We booked a double room for a great price of 20e pp and that includes continental breakfast in the morning. The hostel is perfect for walking / chilling out. The Dingle way... More

Absolute gem, ideal base for walking, cycling or driving. having locals in situ sets it apart from most other hostels, lots of helpful advice, phone calls, taxi arranging etc above and beyond the call of duty. Great breakfast also. Don't tell everyone : ))

My party of nine hillwalkers spent 3 nights at Mount Brandon Hostel and we really enjoyed our stay. Micheal and Mary were extremely friendly and helpful hosts. The view across the bay from the dining room is stunning, and Mount Brandon itself can be climbed directly from the hostel. Definitely one of the best hostels we have stayed at, it's... More

Best experience to date in a hostel. Mary was an exceptional hostess, and we were fortunate to be staying at the hostel while she was there. She provides more for her guests in one afternoon than I have witnessed any hostel owner provide in even a year's time. She redefined hospitality. Don't hesitate to start a chat with her either,...

Stayed 2 nights there on the Dingle Way and loved it. We had booked a double room and what wé got was a family room with a double bed as well as 3 single bed! The power shower is amazing, there are toasts, cereals, jams, milk, coffee and tea for breakfast. The views onto the bay from thé dining room... More

The hostel is quite plain and a little bit lacking in 'homely comfort'. However, the price is good and especially for a twin/double room. Great location if hiking Brandon Mountain.

A big thank you to Mount Brandon hostel which housed our group last weekend. Lovely rooms, comfy beds, hot water. Really nice communal areas. A home away from home. Thanks to Micheal for arranging the bookings and Mary for the lovely hospitality while we were there. Would highly recommend this hostel. Great value for money!!
