Have just spent a few days here in the heart of Quiet Man country. Martha looked after us really well. She is totally delightful, warm and welcoming and she cooks a mean breakfast. The whole place is really spotless. The rooms are small but so homely and the bed was a dream. We would not hesitate to recommend a stay... More

Stayed at the River Lodge one night with my mother and we had perfectly resting night. The room was pretty small and the decor is not necessarily my taste, but all in all it was perfectly decent and clean. Breakfast was nice, though my soft boiled eggs were actually hard boiled... It is perfectly located to walk anywhere in Cong... More

I stayed at Ryan's River Lodge for two nights in April 2013. It's fabulously located on the river in the heart of Cong and within comfortable walking distance of the stunning Ashford Castle. It is also a short drive from Lisloughrey Lodge where I was attending a wedding. All in all, Ryan's provided the perfect place for me to feel... More

Ryan's River Lodge was just what I wanted while visiting Cong, the place where "The Quiet Man" was filmed. The thatched-roof cottage look is warm and inviting, and the interior is likewise. The cottage style rooms were cozy, yet spacious, with sumptuous bedding and window coverings. I especially enjoyed our large window with small panes overlooking the river. Although the... More

What a great b&b, friendly accommodating staff and a great place to stay. The bed was comfortable, the room was clean and well presented. Breakfast was lovely and overall it was great value for money. We made use of the complimentary wifi.

Martha and David provide a great breakfast with REAL Coffee; fresh chocolate chip scones, (plus cook-to-order Irish Breakfast). With a view of the Salmon Hatchery/ and River rushing by, you wake to a great morning in Cong. They are excellent at telling you about undiscovered trails, hikes to Ashford Castle and other sights in the area. Comfy bed, plenty of... More

We arrived in Cong about two hours earlier than anticipated but after official check-in time. We were welcomed and put our bags in our rooms. As there were four of us (two children ages 7 and 11) we had separate rooms but across the hall from each other. One looked onto the river and the small road. The other looked... More

We came across Ryan's River Lodge by chance while looking to find somewhere to stay in Cong and we were glad that we did. Our room was large and comfortable and breakfast was excellent. We would stay here again if in the area.

I read a review on this bed and breakfast that amazed me - How can people be so vicious. This is simply a wonderful Irish experience. The staff are friendly, cheerful and friendly. Its not a fives tar hotel and if you want that experience go somewhere else. Ryans Lodge is the real Irish cottage experience. The breakfast is fresh... More

My husband and I stumbled on Cong and The RIver Lodge. We loved the hospitality at the RIver Lodge. Martha made us a welcome and breakfast was great. Martha and I shared flower basket stories. We stayed one night and wish we had more time. We walked the trial, monk's fishing lodge, and investigated Cong Abbey. We will definitely will... More
