I stayed eight time in this hostel. The Owner was a good man. His name's Karl. Now the Boss is Steve but the hostel is the best. There is a free loundry service, the rooms are beautiful. The hostelis very clean. There is a private car park, the turf fire in the common room. The house is a beautiful old... More

Nice hostel in a renovated farmhouse, the place is really cozy we almost felt at home + Ann was really helpful to indicate us which pub would be the best for the night and to give us directions. In my opinion it is a very good stop after visiting the cliffs and then going in the Burren. Just think to... More

This picturesque hostel was perfect for what my friends and I were looking for! Everything was very clean and comfortable. A small breakfast is offered for 1.50 Euro and there is a large kitchen to prepare your own meals (I suggest bringing along your own food if possible-there is a fridge to store things if necessary-since there is nowhere nearby...

My hubbie and I stayed here for 2 nights, the beginning of our 3 week journey through Ireland. Karl rescued us from a hostel nearby who tried to take advantage of us. Thank you Karl! We had a private room and it was clean, as was the entire hostel. Karl was helpful in so many ways, especially with his daily... More

My sister and I stayed there for a night and stayed in rather than going out to the pubs even though Doolin is famous for their music. We actually preferred the cozy living room. We situated ourselves in front of this fireplace in a lovely rocking chair listening to sounds of Natalie Merchant. The place was kept very clean, had... More

O-kay, so apparently when we were passing through Doolin, it was a popular season and every B&B that we had intended to stay in was full. We hesitantly picked this hostel, unsure of what to expect. Boy did we get lucky! WE LOVED IT! Karl was a great host and even drew maps out for us about the surrounding attractions... More

Our family arrived late at Aille River Hostel after a long, rain-soaked drive up from Co. Cork. It was a bit disconcerting to walk, dazed and confused, into a full hostel buzzing with languages from across Europe. A good night's sleep later, we quickly saw that this was a very well-run place, and were happy to have a place like... More

The hostel is great. I spent here one night doing a solo trip through the Burren. The owners were charming and helpful. I've got everything I needed up to recommendations where was the best place in Doolin for dinner. Bed, shower, Internet connection and - perhaps the most important - calm and friendly atmosphere. If you are like me and... More

Best hostel ever. The rooms are clean and quite big. Showers are also very clean but it's not possible to regulate the temperature, so it's quite hot. The staff is super friendly. Great price. 16.50€ for a bed and 8€ for camping Nothing more to say. Best hostel ever. More
