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.
We had a lovely time. The hotel was clean, bright and friendly. The atmosphere was very pleasant and the staff were accommodating. The beds were very comfortable also! The location of the hotel was convenient and the price was great.

What a lovely hotel, beautifully appointed. We spent 3 nights in May on a family trip. We moved to a deluxe room. What can I say. - the bed was lovely, the bathroom was lovely, the furnishings were spot on. As we were out touring all day we did eat in Bailey’s bar and bistro for the length of our stay. Enjoyed the craic from the servers. Overall a great experience. My husband liked the breakfast coffee - what roast is it please.

We stayed in the garden suite & it was absolutely beautiful. Nice, big spacious room, with a huge bed & a bath tub in the room. There is also a gorgeous outdoor patio area. We ate in the bar & the food was really nice. My only bad complaint is that the service was pretty bad in the bar. The waitress we ordered from didn’t bring some of the food over, we had to ask a second time & we were waiting an hour for our drinks & also had to go up to the bar & ask for them again. I’m not normally a fan of hotel breakfasts, as I’m not usually a breakfast person myself. The breakfast here is hands down the best breakfast I ever had (it was a fry up.) I don’t like fry ups generally, but this was so delicious. We used the outdoor garden area in the spa & it was stunning. The outdoor hot tub…

Nice hotel, friendly staff. Good choice at breakfast, rooms spacious and comfortable. Ample onsite parking, and location close to motorway for Dublin and Waterford. Would recommend this hotel, and will stay here again in the future.

We have stayed here on a couple of occasions whilst travelling from Rosslare port homewards. The service has been consistently excellent even when we arrive in rain soaked motorcycle gear, bed's are comfortable and the restaurant provides great dining. The location is quiet and rural which is what we prefer

Couldn’t recommend the Clonard Hotel more. From the warm welcome we received at check in, fantastic cocktails in the bar, a very tasty dinner, clean & modern rooms and friendly, helpful staff, we couldn’t have enjoyed our stay more. We will definitely be back soon! Thanks for a wonderful stay!
