Alcock And Brown Hotel
Clifden
Galway
Customer Review
4 out of 5
The Alcock and Brown Hotel is located in the centre of Clifden, about 80km from Galway city along the N59. This family run hotel offers you the chance to explore the region where John Alcock and Arthur Whitton Brown completed the world's first non-stop transatlantic flight in 1919. It's also an ideal location to get away from it all and enjoy the serene and relaxing countryside.
The rooms in the Alcock and Brown Hotel are all family rooms – each has a double and single bed.

Description
All are ensuite and come with a satellite TV, telephone, hairdryer and a tea/coffee tray. The hotel is home to an award winning eatery, Brown’s Restaurant which is popular with locals, tourists and residents alike. Perhaps you could try the seafood which was probably caught locally or anything from the excellent a la carte menu. The hotel also has a full bar.
The Alcock and Brown Hotel is just a stone's throw away from where these two pioneering aviators landed, well… successfully crashed their modified Vickers Vimy IV twin-engined bomber. You can go out and see the exact landing point which is about 3 or 4km from the town. Other attractions in the surrounding area include Kylemore Abbey which is the only Irish home of the Benedictine Nuns. A little further north you can visit Killary Fjord where you can have plenty of fun at the Killary Adventure Company. On the way you may pass through Letterfrack, so while there you could visit the Oceans Alive tourism site.
Off the coast of Connemara there are a number of islands, including Inishbofin, Inishshark and Inishturk, which are all worth visiting if you have the time. For a round of golf you can head over to the Connemara Championship Golf Links which is only 10km away and is as challenging as it is beautiful. Angling and horse riding are also popular activities in the area.
