You check in at the restaurant in front with access to the rooms in the back of the restaurant. Friendly staff, clean room, great location right on a street with shops and restaurants. There are some stairs and no lift so may be less suited for older travelers. We enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend

Beware. I recently had a very negative experience staying at the Ivy Rooms. I was double charged for my stay and have been unable to obtain a refund from the Ivy Rooms despite several weeks of attempting to contact the hotel. I booked my stay on Expedia and despite the fact that the booking indicated that I would be charged at the property at the time of my stay, a charge for the balance of my stay was issued to my credit card months before the stay. I was not aware of this charge as I do not always monitor my credit card statements as closely as I should. Shortly after check in on the day of the stay, the hotel employee who checked us in knocked on our door indicating that we had not been charged through Expedia so we needed to provide a form of payment. I was taking a phone call at the time so my friend provided his credit card as we were unaware that my card had previously been charged. The charge to my credit card months before was issued to "Lamplight Restaurant Clifden", while my friend's card was charged to "Ivy Rooms Clifden" for the same amount. Neither Expedia or our credit card companies have been able to help us given the fact that two separate cards were charged by two different businesses, although they operate from the same address/building. The Ivy Rooms has not responded to any phone calls (their message machine is full as well), emails, or direct messages through Expedia. I would highly recommend staying away from this untrustworthy business.

We waited over an hour trying to get in to get checked in. The entrance is through either the cafe or a restaurant but both were locked and closed. This was around 4:30 pm, which was supposed to be normal business hours for both. We tried knocking, calling (several times), messaging through the expedia app and directly through their email with no responses. We finally just called expedia tlbecause we already paid for this room and weren't sure if we could get refunded to find a different place. Expedia was nice and helpful and said they would reach out to them. Shortly after, they finally called me back and said they would send someone to let us in. About 10, maybe 15 minutes later, a male teenager came in and let us in, gave us a key, and showed us where our room was. Just so others know who are not traveling light, we had to climb three flights of stairs to get to our room with our luggage. Didn't know that before I booked. Also, the Expedia info says no pets allowed, but someone in an adjacent room had a dog barking all night while we were just trying to sleep off our jet lag before we moved to our castle hotel (Ballynahinch btw, awesome place). I called the number about the dog and left a voicemail. Got a call back shortly after this time, and not long after, the dog stopped barking. Upon check out, we literally just dropped our key in a basket and left. No paperwork coming in or leaving, no showing IDs, no receptionist at all. So weird. I wouldn't stay again.
