From the moment we walked through the doors of the Connemara Coast Hotel, we knew we had to have our wedding reception there. This hotel has everything, it is fabulous throughout, it has so many great locations for photos within the hotel, especially on the stunning staircase and it has the most picturesque landscape for outdoor photographs and this fabulous view is also the backdrop view from the function room. The staff are so friendly and professional, the Wedding Manager Chloe O Neill is one of the nicest people you will ever meet, she has such a calm presence and is an absolute pleasure to deal with. Her kindness and understanding made it so easy to plan the perfect day. And it was the perfect day in every way, Chloe was there to meet us on arrival and to ensure everything ran smoothly throughout the day, the function room looked magnificent, she is simply the best and it's no surprise that this hotel won Best Wedding Venue in Connacht 2021. No words can fully describe just how fantastic the Connemara Coast Hotel is, it has a magic that draws you back and we return every chance we get. Thank you to all the wonderful management and staff of the Connemara Coast Hotel for your dedication, hard work and kindness and for making our wedding day the best day ever. We wouldn't change a single thing. Continued Success and Good Wishes to you all. Cathal and Linda Bheilbigh

We cannot speak highly enough of the service we received from the Connemara Coast Hotel, both in the build-up to our wedding and on the day itself! The events and kitchen team pulled out all the stops to accommodate any and all of our special requests and even suggested some of their own so that our day was as special to us as possible (e.g. incorporating elements of Italian cuisine into the menu as we had an Italian/Irish wedding). On the wedding day itself, it felt fantastic to be in the hands of real professionals. From the moment we stepped through the door, they handles everything for us, effortlessly guiding us from one part of the day to the next while also ensuring we took time out for ourselves to enjoy every moment as much as possible. They also effectively liaised with all our suppliers on the day, like the band, photo booth and many more. Everything came together perfectly. At very short notice on our part, they also provided us with a lovely less formal space to enjoy ourselves on 'Day 2'. All in all, we couldn't have asked for anything more from the day and from the team at the hotel. We are so thankful to them for the most amazing weekend and for helping us celebrate with our family and friends! We would highly recommend Connemara Coast Hotel to anyone!

We ust wanted to thank everyone in Connemara Coast Hotel for our fairytale wedding. The staff took care of every detail and we loved every second of our special day. I can’t tell you how many people said what a beautiful setting the Connemara Coast Hotel has. Thank you to Connemara Coast Hotel and their team for the perfect day. This is a very beautiful place with a fantastic views of the ocean. Our winter wedding was perfect. The Connemara Coast Hotel team were accommodating and enthusiastic throughout the planning process. We were able to add as much or as little of our own personal touches as we wanted. When our wedding was postponed due to lockdown, they were flexible and supportive and we never lost hope that our day would still be amazing. It’s the perfect location for amazing photos, so many great spots inside and out. Everyone loved the food! Literally nothing bad to say about this incredible venue The staff went above and beyond to help us and the whole day and night went so well, and the venue looked amazing! All the staff did an excellent job always answering our emails and questions and were very kind and welcoming to us both and all our guests. Our host for the day was also unreal! She went above and beyond to help us out with anything and was very accommodating with any changes and keeping everything else on schedule. So thank you Chloe. The food was also amazing and we had so much excellent feedback from our guests about the food from start to finish and how great the room was set up and the Connemara Coast Hotel as a whole. Would definitely recommend!

We just had our civil ceremony at Connemara Coast Hotel on Friday 19th of November, and it couldn't have been more perfect! We started planning our wedding December, 2020, and the country was in lockdown, but as we are from Connemara we were able to visit the venue. We both fell in love with it, and the location was just perfect for us. We didn't look at any other hotel once we saw the Connemara Coast Hotel. We were planning on a small intimate wedding, restrictions or not, and had 12 for our ceremony, and 60 for our reception. Both function rooms for the civil ceremony and reception were beautifully decorated, very elegant and classic just how I wanted. The views out of the function room are amazing. We used the gazebo for wedding shots, and I'm sure they will come out amazing. We had Santa call the guest for dinner, which was a nice treat for the kiddies. The food was excellent, and it came out quick, with lovely presentation. No one's wine glass was empty, the staff came around quick enough to top it up. The hotel staff couldn't do enough for us. The suite we had was beautifully decorated, and very spacious which was great for me as I used it to get ready in. There was plenty of room for the hairdresser and make-up artist to do their thing. I have had people say to me they are going to look into Connemara Coast Hotel now, after being at my wedding. It really is a lovely venue for a wedding. I can't recommend it enough.

Chloe and the team at Connemara Coast Hotel were brilliant. They were a delight to deal with, from the day we first visited Connemara Coast Hotel. The venue was perfect, and the pergola was beautiful for pictures at sunset. We were fortunate enough to have our reception on the terrace, which provided a stunning view for our guests to enjoy. The food was exceptional, the room was beautifully decorated and the day flowed perfectly. We would highly recommend Connemara Coast Hotel to any couples wanting to have a perfect, hassle-free day.

Well what can we say about Connemara Coast Hotel except that it was on the top of our list from the beginning and certainly lived up to our expectations in every way. The stunning location, views and the hotel itself are amazing. From the reception area to the function room and the beautiful bridal suite, everything is gorgeous. Months after our wedding our guests are still complimenting the outstanding food and the amazing staff. Planning a wedding in these times was challenging, but Chloe made it seem effortless. We can't thank her and all the staff enough for their dedication, understanding and attention to detail. Thank you all for making the best day of our lives so special, and for giving us memories to last a lifetime. Connemara Coast Hotel will always hold a special place in our hearts.

My husband, Niall, and I got married at Connemara Coast Hotel on October 22nd, 2021. We met with Chloe, the wedding coordinator, for the first time back in September, 2020, and we were delighted to book our big day with Chloe and her team at the hotel. Chloe was brilliant to work with in the run up to the wedding, and as we planned out the finer details, there was no request that was too big or too small. Chloe, Johnathan (the General Manager) and their team were on hand on the day and looked after us and our guests so well. The main comments we got from guests after the wedding were how amazing the hotel was, including the rooms, the ballroom and the setting (AMAZING views from the ballroom!). Also how good the food was on the day of the wedding and over the course of the weekend, and how helpful and friendly the staff were. We agree wholeheartedly with all of these comments and further want to add how incredible the staff were. From Chloe to Johnathan, Anne at Reception (who was always so warm, friendly and welcoming), Ranko, Mark, Alan, the chef, to name a few, and all of the catering, restaurant and bar staff, everyone there is such a credit to the hotel and really made the weekend special for us. We have some great memories of our wedding weekend at Connemara Coast Hotel. My husband Niall and I will be back to the hotel, as will a lot of our guests in the future. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a venue. It truly has it all.

Everything at Connemara Coast Hotel was exceptional. The food was five stars, as was the service. We were the first wedding back after COVID, so we were worried about a lot, but everything went better than we expected. Chloe was a dream to work with, and always helped us out as much as she could. The bridal suite is absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend Connemara Coast Hotel for your wedding. Everything was perfect. Thank you all!

We cannot speak highly enough of the service we received from the Connemara Coast Hotel, both in the build up to our wedding and of course on the day itself! The events and kitchen team pulled out all the stops to accommodate any and all of our special requests and even suggested some of their own so that our day was as individual to us as possible (e.g. incorporating elements of Italian cuisine into the menu as we were an Italian/Irish wedding). On the wedding day itself, it felt fantastic to be in the hands of real professionals - from the moment we stepped through the door, they took all the thinking out of it for us, effortlessly guiding us from one part of the day to the next while also ensuring we took time out for ourselves to enjoy every moment as much as possible. They also liaised efficiently and effectively with all our suppliers on the day (band, photo booth etc.) with everything coming together perfectly. guests have been raving about the food in the week since - including the veggie options! At very short notice on our part, they also provided us with a lovely less formal space to enjoy ourselves on 'day 2' and again our guests were very impressed with the food that night too! All in all, We couldn't have asked for anything more from the day and from the team at the hotel and we are so, so thankful to them all for the most amazing weekend celebrating with our family and friends! We would highly recommend to anyone!

We recently had our wedding at Connemara Coast Hotel, and what can we say except that it was an absolutely brilliant day. We knew Connemara Coast Hotel was our dream venue from when we first stepped through the doors. We loved it not only for the remarkable, dreamlike stunning views, but also for the frIendly and helpful reception we received from all of the staff on that very first day. This frIendly helpful reception continued throughout our time organising our wedding, with a special thanks going to our wedding coordinator, Chloe O Neill. She is just a genuinely lovely person, on top of being an exceptionaL wedding coordinator.

Thank you for making our wedding day perfect! From the first email and subsequent phone calls, to the day itself, everything went smoothly, even in the middle of a pandemic. Chloe, the wedding organizer, was always available for any queries, and made us feel special throughout the process. Nothing was too much trouble for her. We had a civil ceremony in the function room, so the day of the wedding was amazing. The bridesmaids and I decided to stay in the hotel the night before, and it was the best decision ever. From the first thing in the morning, we were treated like royalty. All the staff were very helpful and checked in on us regularly. Before the ceremony we wanted to do a 'first look', so Chloe cleared out the reception area, and set it up perfectly for the photography. She even recorded it for us and sent it on right away, it is the only recording we have of it so it meant a lot. The function room was laid out beautifully for the ceremony, and the views across the bay are out of this world. The meal was fantastic, and the staff all around were top class. Catherine and the team made sure we were looked after all evening. Our two boys, 6 and 8, were also treated like royalty. They really got to feel a part of the day, which was something that was important to us. The staff made sure they were kept happy all day. We would highly recommend Connemara Coast Hotel, we are so happy we chose this venue! Thank you, Emma & Rob Lally + Boys!

We planned our wedding at quite short notice, and had some mad ideas that we wanted to use to make our day special. Chloe, the wedding planner, and the staff of the hotel supported us, offering to help co-ordinate the events we planned, to ensure smooth running of the day. They also ensured that we were able to include everything we wanted to do. They were very encouraging throughout both the planning of the day, and the day itself. The tasting menu was a great idea, as it made it easier for us to choose what we, our guests and family would enjoy most. On the day of the wedding, the reception area was really good as it was separate from the main hotel, which meant we had privacy throughout our reception. The staff were very helpful throughout the day. Nothing was too much trouble for them, even to the point of Brian helping us get our slide show going when disaster struck with the connection to the projector! All of our guests commented on how fantastic the food was, they were so impressed with the location of the hotel and the views of the sea and County Clare. We had a brilliant evening, and there was no pressure on us to leave the reception room towards the end of the evening. The clean-up staff waited patiently until everyone left to finish their work. The honeymoon suite, where we stayed in was amazing and so comfortable. We were lucky enough to stay for a second night, and we really felt like we were on our honeymoon. We absolutely loved the sitting room area most of all, although the balcony was also a bonus, giving us great views of the sea. Despite Covid restrictions, we had the day we really wanted and planned to have. Everything went perfectly, and we have magical memories to last us a lifetime. Thank you to all the staff, especially Chloe, Brian and Ranko, who helped make our day so special. Shaun and Magz

I highly recommend Connemara Coast Hotel for your wedding day. Brian looked after us from the start, and he was nothing short of a gentleman. We had so many queries and went back and forth in our minds with covid, and he was always at the other end of an email letting us know the latest restrictions, offering his advice often when he was off the clock. The wedding itself was absolutely unreal and so much more than we expected. We knew we were in good hands, but they blew us away on the day. Nothing was too much trouble, and every member of staff were so kind and lovely. The food was the main talking point after the wedding, it was 5*. Ranko, the restaurant manager, met us at the meal tasting and was there at our wedding day too, making sure every thing went smoothly. It couldn't have gone better, the food was incredible and the best we had at a wedding. We were also told that by many guests. You truly are the centre of their focus on your wedding day, and nothing is too much for them. We know you will get tons of business from our wedding guests, because everyone has mentioned either the food or how lovely the staff were. Thank you so much Brian, Ranko and all the staff at Connemara Coast Hotel, our day could not have gone any better and most of that is down to you guys! -Sarah & Ger (sept 2021 wedding)

We had our wedding here recently and we cannot recommend it highly enough. It is the perfect wedding venue. Location is beautiful, the food was exceptional - all our guests got onto us after to compliment the meal. The attention to detail was phenomenal. From the moment we walked into the hotel until we left everything was perfect. Chloe has been an amazing help to us all the way through the planning and we appreciate everything she has done for us. Jonathan, Chloe, Ranko, Mark and all other members of staff went above and beyond for us to ensure we and our guests had the best experience and we did. The rooms were so comfortable, exceptionally clean and the bridal suite was out of this world! There aren't enough words to express our sincere gratitude, delight and sheer joy of choosing the Connemara Coast Hotel as our wedding venue. Thank you to all the staff, we had the best time! Mr & Mrs Nicholson

We recently had our wedding at Connemara Coast Hotel, and what can we say except that it was an absolutely brilliant day. We knew Connemara Coast was our dream venue from when we first stepped through the doors. We chose it not only for the remarkably dreamlike, stunning views, but also for the frIendly and helpful reception we received from all of the staff on that very first day.

A special thanks going to our wedding coordinator, Chloe O Neill, who is just a genuinely lovely person, on top of being an exceptionaL wedding coordinator.

We had our wedding on the 9th of October, 2021. This was our second date, as our original date got changed due to COVID. Chloe and the team at Connemara Coast Hotel were so accommodating, making it easy to move our wedding our by a year. Our wedding this year was even more than we could have ever expected. We were completely blown away, and I really thing that is down to the venue and team at Connemara Coast. From the moment we stepped into the hotel, our guests and us were completely looked after. Everything was handled for us. The food was amazing and the function room was truly one of the nicest function rooms that I have ever been in. The setting that the hotel is in speaks for itself. The Connemara Coast reaches all the way down the shoreline and they have a beautiful gazebo where we got beautiful pictures. Our suppliers from the day also said Chloe and the team were a dream to work with, and they are looking forward to more weddings there in the future. We are still getting phone calls from our guests to say they really enjoyed the weekend, and that the hotel was fabulous. We are very happy to have chosen Connemara Coast Hotel as our wedding venue, and would highly recommend it to other couples that are looking for a relaxed day. Connemara Coast is a gem, and I look forward to revisiting as soon as possible. If I could give higher than 5 stars I would!

We had the pleasure of getting married at Connemara Coast Hotel on August 7th, and we couldn’t be more complimentary of Chloe and all the staff. When we first got in touch with Chloe, we only had a few months to our desired big day. She was so accommodating and understanding from the start. Not to mention this was in the middle of the lockdown, and we were also organising this from abroad. She put us completely at ease, and we knew from the start it was the right decision to go with Connemara Coast. Throughout the whole process, one thing that none of us could control were the amount of people that were allowed by the government to be present. Chloe was very understanding of this fact, and we made it clear that we would be happy with whatever number was permitted. Due to us living abroad, we were only able to make it for the food tasting on Monday July 26th, with the wedding on Saturday August 7th. On this day we finalised all the last details with Chloe, and we were all prepared to have 50 guests. It was later that evening the government increased the capacity allowed to 100 guests. Due to how close it was to the wedding day, many people who we initially had uninvited could not make it, giving us a guest list of 76. Chloe was completely understanding of this fact, and it was no issue for the hotel. The wedding day went perfectly, with everyone very complimentary of the amazing staff. The food was amazing (the lamb was the nicest I have had), and we had a great day and night. Unfortunately, we didn’t get the weather we wanted, but we were still able to get some amazing photos down at the gazebo and by the water. Chloe and the hotel as a whole exceeded our expectations more than we could have ever imagined. We could not recommend more highly to have a wedding here.

If your feeling doubt about your wedding at the Connemara coast, you needn’t be. Chloe, the wedding and events manager, has honestly been so easy to work with and willing to do anything she can to make sure your day is special. We’re so sad covid got in the way and forced the hotel to close for our date but that doesn’t mean we didn’t have constant contact with them the whole time. Every time an announcement came out I knew I’d be getting a call or email from Chloe keeping us updated. The views from the ballroom are breath-taking and I can still remember when we viewed it, if we wanted our dinner on the roof they would make it happen no questions asked. We both would like to thank the whole team but especially Chloe who really went out of her way to keep us in the loop during such a stressful and scary time. We’ll be back when they are fully open again for sure!

Daniel and I got married on the 11th of September 2020. From the moment we got engaged I had my heart set on the Connemara coast hotel. Once we visited the coast and met with Darius & Chloe Daniel was in full agreement. Then the excitement and fun of planning the wedding begun. Chloe is such a fantastic wedding coordinator ensuring no stone is left unturned. We knew immediately we were in safe hands. Similar to most 2020 wedding couples our journey of getting married was not without stress but Chloe was always at hand to answer any queries we had. As a hotel the Connemara coast hotel is a dream. From the beautiful and private aran suite ballroom to the friendly and mannerly staff, the delicious food, the marvellous bedrooms, to the outstanding and amazing views of Galway bay, I simply cannot fault the hotel. The Connemara coast hotel will always hold a special place in our hearts having created such fantastic memories there. We really enjoyed all of our pre-wedding trips to the hotel and look forward to visiting the coast again in the future. It is a beautifully balanced hotel being so close to Galway city and also having that wonderful Connemara feel. It is equally classic and modern. The food is exquisitely cooked and to the liking of all guests. The staff are an absolute credit to the hotel and the local area - always presenting in the most professional manner and predominantly being from the local area. Our wedding was an absolute success and I thank the Connemara coast hotel for making that happen. We received so many compliments in relation to the hotel staff, the beautiful aran suite ballroom and the food served at our wedding. We would highly recommend the Connemara coast hotel to any couple considering it as their wedding venue.

We had a wonderful weekend celebrating our wedding in the Connemara Coast Hotel in October. We fell in love with the hotel and its surroundings from our first viewing and knew we would have our special day there. We loved that the ballroom is in a separate area of the hotel and has its own separate entrance. The views from the ballroom are stunning and the fact we could use the rest of the hotel, the gazebo and its surrounds for our wedding pictures was a major plus for us. Originally, we were to have a much bigger wedding but due to Covid19 we had to rethink our plans. We had to downsize our numbers with a week to go which did not make the journey easy! However all the help, support, advice and time we received from Chloe the wedding coordinator made our wedding journey that bit easier and took the extra stress away. On the day, all the staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful, something which all our guests commented on. The quality of the food and service was fantastic. We were blessed with the weather and got stunning pictures both outside and inside. Thank you to all the staff for such a lovely weekend. Special thanks to Mark the Bar Manager for all his help and advice along the way and lastly to Chloe, thank you for all you done for us, from the surprise extra little touches on the day, to always being at the end of the phone with help and advice, we truly appreciated it all.

We had such a lovely day celebrating our wedding at the Connemara Coast Hotel. Chloe, the wedding coordinator, was a dream to work with from the start. We had intended to have a bigger wedding and had planned for that originally but Covid 19 hit and things changed. We were supported by Chloe and management in the new plan and the smaller group and they really did everything they could to help make it a special day. We were so happy to be able to use the gazebo (which was by the sea) for the ceremony. It was so beautiful and such a perfect setting. The views are really fantastic. All the staff were very friendly and welcoming and helpful too. There was a playground at the hotel which was a huge hit with the children at the wedding. Although the day was different to what we had planned, we couldn't have asked for anything more from Chloe and all the staff.

We had the most amazing day celebrating our wedding in the Connemara Coast Hotel. The drinks reception area and ballroom is in a separate wing of the hotel with its own private entrance - we really liked this feature of the hotel. The ballroom has breathtaking views of the Wild Atlantic Way as do many of the bedrooms. The hotel, inside and out, offer lovely photo opportunities; from the grand staircase in the lobby leading up to the beautiful mezzanine and the rugged beach area with the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean. We got fantastic compliments from our guests on the standard of food and excellent service that was offered throughout the night. Above all, the staff in the Connemara Coast were so accommodating to all of our needs and requests. Everyone in the bar, restaurant and reception were so kind and helpful in the lead up to the big day and Jonathan, the General Manager, was very welcoming and generous with his time. Chloe, the wedding coordinator, is one of a kind. She made our wedding planning journey so enjoyable and stress free. She was always there with advice and help when we needed her and was very professional in everything she did for us. Thanks again Chloe!! Thank you so much for making our special day one that we will remember always. Laura & Paul

The Connemara Coast is a wonderful venue for a wedding reception. The views are amazing. It's close to Galway city, but yet has a real Connemara vibe and you feel as if you have really gotten away, without having the effort of traveling far. The views of Galway Bay and the Burren are wonderful and the perfect backdrop for celebrations and photos. The hotel has ample accommodation and a spa for those guests who want to chill out in the hot tub while overlooking the Atlantic. On a clear day, the Aran Islands are visible. The hotel staff are wonderful and accommodating. Chloe, the wedding co-ordinator is top-notch! No question will go unanswered. She replies and deals with every query, which is what you want when you are planning a wedding! We got great compliments from our guests about the food and wine. We all really enjoyed our wedding banquet!
