When thinking of staying overnight in Ballinasloe, Carlton Shearwater first comes to mind. Well, if it does to you too, forget it! Impressive exterior probably only raises expectations for them to be shattered once you're in one of many - read: way too many - plantless, furnitureless hallways or stairwells. Once checked in and on the way to your room... more

Stayed here for a weekend. Like all the Carlton Hotels, clean, great pool and nice staff. Expensive to eat in the hotel but loads of choice in Ballinasloe. The chinese beside the AIB bank, Tao Yuan(upstairs) is excellent. Had a beautiful meal here. Maud Millers in the town is a great pub with live music. Don't let the small size... more

My wife and I and 2 kids stayed in the Carlton Shearwater last weekend. We found the rooms to be well maintained, very comfortable and clean. We ate in the bar and the food was excellent and very reasonably priced, with good portion sizes well presented. The leisure centre has a big pool and the kids certainly enjoyed it. The... more

My husband & I have stayed here a few times to tie in with appointments at Portiuncula Hospital. The hotel is easy to find and only a few minutes drive on exiting the new Motorway. The last time we stayed was for 3 nights. We booked 2 nights on the 7th heaven promotion and the 3rd night, we booked on... more

Having stayed in the Carlton Hotel in Kinsale I was looking forward to my stay in this sister hotel in Ballinasloe. The Hotel is not as opulent as the one in Kinsale and the reception area is just very big with nothing exceptional about it apart from the cosy fire were you can sit in the evening having a drink... more

Stayed at the cleawater over the wekend for a wedding, Got great price in their 3 for 2 promotion, found the staff very friendly and while the service was on the slow side quality of food made up for it. We ate in the bar which had the same menu as the restaurant so food was a bit pricy but... more

The accommodation was okay, but the service was typical 'can't be bothered' Irish red-neck. The restaurant service was appalling. We had the granny of the village (our server) gave us a hard time for what we ordered. 'Now' here you go, and dropping the dish on the table as if she had better things to do. The food was not... more

Ok a couple of hiccups, our first room had a plumbing leak, soggy carpet, smelled like mold, and bathroom was dirty. The second room was a smoker's room. But the staff was very helpful and the third time is the charm. The third room was immaculately clean and spotless. Beds are extremely fluffy and comfy. The included breakfast is hearty!... more
