Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Patricia H4 contributionsWhat a great place. Lots to see, more than just one room. A great history of life in the local area. A mini classroom, a cobbler’s, a chemist, all set up as well as the main museum room and a dairy. Very interesting. A trip down memory lane for a lot of us, even if you are not from the local area there will be things you recognise from your youth or from your grandparents if you are over 50. Charlie and his wife are very friendly and will answer any questions you may have. There are drinks available, a toilet on site and free parking.Written 19 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Mikep23Grantham, UK79 contributionsThe wife loved it, and unusually for me, I liked it very much.

- Shelley W31 contributionsSean's Bar has a lively, friendly vibe in a rustic environment that's full of charm. Sean himself poured our pints and we got a cozy booth table to enjoy them. There's lots to look at on the walls for anyone interested in history, and some cool merch to bring home (even if your name isn't Sean).Written 22 September 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Aoife DudgeonBallinasloe, Ireland1 contributionUnreal!! We did the Zombie Apocalypse themed room and we absolutely loved it. My little sister was a bit nervous but the guide was so friendly and helpful and we ended up having a fantastic time. The clues were so clever and we all found the experience so fun. Would 100% recommend and would love to come back to try another room!Written 1 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SharonDublin27 contributionsSandra was my therapist and did a super job. Great firm pressure for a full body massage and gentle for the facial afterwards. Super job. One criticism is that the thermal spa lacks amenities or imagination and the steam room wasn’t in operation, but will definitely be back and will request Sandra.Written 20 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Declan T2 contributionsJust booking the course for a society outing with Siobhan was a pleasure. She and all the staff were so accommodating, it was unreal. They were a pleasure to deal with and also very competitive when it came to green fees.

- Jennifer K1 contributionOur whole family enjoyed Vincent's guided walking tour. It was a great mix Athone history with stories that brought the information to life. The tour covered many lovely parts of the city. I would recommend the tour to anyone spending a Saturday morning in Athlone.Written 28 August 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
