Old Ground Hotel – A Favorite for Families in Ennis

Old Ground Hotel offers complimentary on-site parking with an electric vehicle charging station. The hotel provides 24-hour front desk service, concierge, currency exchange, and luggage storage. Business facilities include a business centre, meeting/banquet spaces, and fax/photocopying.

Recently renovated rooms combine modern comforts with the building's 18th-century character. Guests can request rooms with walk-in showers or bathtubs, and accessible rooms are available for guests with disabilities. The hotel has family rooms, non-smoking floors, and a lift serving most areas.

Three dining options serve locally sourced cuisine: the Town Hall Restaurant, the Poets Corner bar, and a breakfast room with an award-winning full Irish breakfast. Live traditional Irish music is featured regularly in the Poets Corner. The hotel also offers room service, special diet menus, kids' meals, and a wine/champagne list.

The hotel sits in the centre of Ennis, a medieval town on the Wild Atlantic Way. Within a 30-minute drive are the Cliffs of Moher, The Burren National Park, and Dromoland Castle. Ennis Friary and the town's traditional music pubs are a short walk from the hotel.

Family-focused facilities include dedicated family rooms, babysitting/child services, and a children's menu in the restaurant. The hotel has exclusive event spaces, such as the Maguire Suite, that host weddings, conferences, and private parties. Old Ground Hotel was named Best Hospitality Provider in County Clare in 2019 for its guest service.
