Armada Hotel (Milltown Malbay, Ireland)

Many of the guest rooms at Armada Hotel have spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean. Although you have to request an upgrade in order to enjoy this amenity, it is really worth the cost.

Locally sourced produce, meats, fish and a talented chef make for a wonderful dining experience in the restaurant, bistro and pub located on premises. Everything is fresh and delicious and the ocean views you can see while dining don't hurt a bit.

From the moment you walk through the doors, the warm, well-appointed staff makes you feel so welcome. They are happy to accommodate most any request and can point you in the direction of the most popular local attractions.

If you are planning on booking here, be prepared for the weddings that populate this property on most weekends and the guests and music which can get rather loud. In addition, the walls are thin and voices echoing from the corridors and other rooms could disturb your stay.

Although the public spaces are well-appointed, some of the rooms are tired and dated looking.

Some of the guest rooms at Armada Hotel, especially those that don't face the water, are small and dark which is just one more reason to upgrade to a room with an ocean view which are more spacious and afford lots of natural light.
