Hotel near Shannon Airport?
Permalink  

Hello! My fiancee and I are spending 2 weeks in Ireland for our honeymoon in November. We are flying home out of Shannon and I am looking for a suggestion of a nice but not terribly expensive hotel near the Shannon Airport as we have a morning flight out of SNN. I had looked at the Shannon Great Southern (now Park Inn) but have read some dismal reviews and was hoping for some other suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Plenty of good B&Bs down the road that runs between Durty Nelly's and the Bunratty Castle. You can take your pick from a number of places there and be just minutes from the airport.

Anne,

If it must be a hotel take a look at Bunratty Castle Hotel and Bunratty Manor. The Radisson a few miles down the road toward Limerick is also nice.

If you can stay at a B&B instead I would suggest Bunratty Lodge and booking the queen room with the four poster bed wilth lacy canopy. I have a link to them on my "Lodgings" page. It is only a 10-15 minute drive to Shannon Airport from there.

Thanks for the suggestions! I will check them out. I am not picky about hotel vs. B&B ...I've just found in our trip planning that several B&Bs are closed in mid-November. Thanks again, I have found a lot of good info on your site!

Anne,

In mid-November Bunratty Lodge could be closed. But send an email to see for sure. Other places I would recommend are Headley Court and the Courtyard, both in Bunratty.

I also suggest Ashgrove House in Bunratty. I stayed there for 2 nights a few years back. It was like spending the night at a close family member's house. Breakfasts are great, also.

Bunratty is only 10 minutes, by car, to Shannon Airport.
