The difficult thing about Sheedys is leaving. We stayed for four days and wished it had been much longer. Martina looks after her guests unobtrusively but impeccably, while husband John works alchemy in the kitchen, with superb produce cooked to perfection. The slow cooked beef was amazing. Altogether a great experience; Sheedys sets the bar for small hotels very high... More

My sister and I stayed one night in May 2013. I so wish we had stayed longer. The room was tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The bedding was great - high quality sheets and a nice, snuggley wool blanket. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was superb. We didn't eat there for dinner, because we wanted to go...

Hands down our favorite hotel in Ireland. Small enough to be quaint and friendly, but with the amenities of the very best luxury hotels. Martina was a jewel, and John the finest cook. Wish we could have stayed a month. Highly recommended. A great place for touring The Burren and Cliffs of Moher.

Location: The location is a few miles outside the town of Doolin. It takes about ten minutes’ drive to make it to either the Cliffs of Moher or the ferries. Lisdoonvarna is a great little town even outside the months of their matchmaker festival. I heard it’s quite packed during the festival. There are a few pubs and restaurants in... More

An excellent hotel and great value for money. From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty and nothing was a problem. We got completely spoiled. Dinner was excellent and breakfast was one of the best I have ever tasted. Martina and John work extremely hard and this is evident when you spend time in the hotel. The bedrooms... More

This is an excellent hotel that has been in the same family for many generations. I can't say enough about Martina and her husband John. They make you feel welcome and at home the minute you walk in the door. As you walk past reception you will note multiple culinery awards on the wall earned by John who is a... More

This is an excellent hotel. The rooms are extremely clean and well kept. The welcome is genuine and warm and service continues to be excellent throughout. The food is really good; breakfasts are really superb. You get exactly what you want and it's cooked to perfection. Everything is locally sourced and the menu tells you where each item comes from....

My friend and I had supper here at the end of last season. We had a lovely welcome from the owner and after a drink and looking at the menu we were taken into the small dining room. Despite being one of two tables we quickly relaxed and enjoyed our food so much we ended up sharing our plates so... More

If there was a rating above excellent I'd give that! I can't think of anything wrong during our stay here. The room was huge and there were lots of nice little touches around the place. The food was absolutely amazing! The best meal we've ever had (literally) and very reasonably priced for what you get. The breakfast was equally good...... More
