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.

Lovely hotel, friendly staff. Use of health suite as part of the overnight stay - not overcrowded. Ate in McGettigan's good value for money. Breakfast good selection. Hot food was hot!. Free parking. Range of golf courses within 30 mins drive.

We were in for carvery lunch last week myself my husband and my 10 year old daughter we sat at table 9 and we had a lovely waitress Sabrina , she was so lovely and our child seemed to love her even giving her a hug before we left the clanree 😂 ,Food was gorgeous and staff were lovely but i had to mention Sabrina as we couldn’t have got better service the only thing but this is very a small comment (not a complaint a comment) was that when i said to the woman up in the counter when i was going to pay if i could leave a €10 tip and if i could also leave Sabrina a tip i was told no as tips had to be shared which i get is a rule but i wish i could’ve given her something as she really was absolutely fantastic, friendly and had a fantastic sense of humour , we definitely will be back ,Thanks so much

The only things that weren’t great was the fact that the reception area was freezing also there was no entertainment in the bar which I thought was strange for the first Friday in December! Other than that all was perfect! Staff in McGettigans were lovely and very helpful.

We were in for carvery lunch on Sunday the food was GORGEOUS to say the least ,rooms and pool was amazing we had a fantastic server Sabrina and had a blast we were a table of 10 girls and 1 man Sabrina got us everything we needed and did it with a smile on her face which was again amazing , she was humorous and just a sweetheart at the same time we really enjoyed having her as a waitress we couldn’t have got better service from her and everything was going very well until the end when i asked for a pot of tea from another waitress which i believe went by the name Leanne after i asked another male server her name thats what he told me , we asked for a pot of tea and very rudely she rolled her eyes and said yeah okay and when she came back she slammed the pot down and let some tea fall out of the pot nearly burning us to be honest it ruined our whole evening and i was very annoyed and disappointed leaving so that why i gave it two stars as the last server Leanne ruined it

Dear EilisamH7728VB, Thank you so much for visiting our Sunday Carvery on the 3rd of December . We really appreciate your kind comments regarding the gorgeous food and the lovely compliments in relation to one of our young team Sabrina. Our staff are by far our biggest asset here in the Clanree Hotel and it was really so out of character for the young lady you mentioned to be rude as they are all a lovely young bunch with lovely mannerisms as she is constantly getting glowing feedback. We encourage and build their confidence to cope within the hospitality business and it is such a pity that her name was singled out on such a public platform with such negativity as I am sure you will agree we are all capable of having our off days on a the rare occasions. I do hope we have the pleasure of welcoming you back on another occasion when I hope you fully enjoy your Clanree experience. Wishing you and your family a very Happy Christmas and best wishes for 2024. Many thanks again & Warmest Regards, Antoinette Coyle, Asst. General Manager. Clanree Hotel.

We had most amazing Christmas party night at the Clanree. It is an absolutely gorgeous hotel. On arrival we were treated to mulled wine then shown into the ballroom beautifully decorated for Christmas. We had 4 tables for our group. The food was amazing, service seamless. Staff were efficient and friendly. The band were superb and had us all up dancing to a great mixture of music. It was great value for money and a great start to the festive season.
