I enjoyed a Fri and Sat night stay. Strongly advise to take the first ferry on Friday (depart Rosaveel 10:30 am) and depart last ferry on Sunday (departs island 4:30 pm). Arrived on Inis Meain approx 11:45 am. Owner met us on the dock and drove us to the hotel. Only four suites in the whole hotel. Beautiful horizontal architecture... More

Everything about this hotel is original, and designed to make you relax, slow down, and escape the fast pace of modern life for a while. Inis Meain Restaurant and Suites is just that: four suites attached to a restaurant. There's no lobby. No reception. What you have instead is a lovely warm welcome from the owner Marie-Therese, amazing food from... More

I stumbled across this unique island establishment online, and am so glad I visited. Having grown up hearing stories about County Galway from my Irish parent, I was eager to experience the beauty of this region for myself. The island of Inis Meain was everything i could have possibly hoped for and more: lovely hikes through fields, miles of beautiful... More

The experience is completely unique, choreographed by a wonderful couple who bring their world experience to a magical corner of the earth. The food is local, simple and incredibly delicious. A stay at Inis Meain is a treat beyond... More

Approaching off the ferry through a raw landscape of stone, sea and sun, a cutting edge building houses a very comfortable suite with panoramic views. A thoughtfully stocked fridge and equally well considered selection of books complement the scene. No phone and no tv are essentially appropriate, not missed at all. The food in the restaurant is superb, locally sourced... More

I visited the Inis Meain suites and restaurants last may with my wife - I haven't bothered with Tripadvisor for a while, but if any place that I have been to in the last year - even over the last decade -deserves an excellent review then this is it. There were so many memorable aspects of our trip. The island... More

We ate at the restaurant last year and the food and service is superb, particularly the wonderful fresh fish; Ruairi and Marie Therese have created a place that Inis Meain can be proud of. Highly recommend it.

Last spring I read an article in a Finnish magazine about Inish Meain and this incredible hotel. I instantly started dreaming of a different summer holiday on this rough-looking and edgy island – and booked the trip. Inish Meain Suites & Hotel provided a true retreat. We flew to Dublin, spent a few days there, took a bus, another and... More
