I will be in Ennis in two weeks, for one night with my adult daughter and 17 year old grandson. We need a night's lodging with three beds in Ennis. I tried the Old Ground but they are booked. We will not have a car. I tried a google search but ended up with booking.com and tripadvisor suggestions. I question their offerings and much prefer advice shared here,
Any suggestions?
We stayed last year at the Glenomra House B&B. Mary, the owner, was foreseeing possibly not being able to keep running it, due to obligations to her family. Hopefully that situation has been resolved, but if it’s available, it was wonderful stay. We were a couple; not certain what accommodations they had for three.
Alas, Glenomra House B&B seems to be not accepting any guests.
Did you try Google maps? If you search for the bus or train station in Ennis, you can then see hotels nearby. Google has reviews, which you can make your own decision about), and you’ll see contact information for each place.
Have you done a search of this site? It seems like a lot of forum users stay in Ennis.
Booking.com and tripadvisor.com are the only way many places accept reservations. tripadvisor sends you to booking.com or expedia etc. for the actual reservation (or they did). When even booking.com shows "nothing available", I've resorted to touring town via GoogleMaps/Street view, teasing out small B&Bs with a sign and phone number. Googling the name usually produces an email.
I was planning Ennis for next year and I noticed all my old B&Bs were shuttered, probably due to the short stay rules/licensing issues or simply retirement. I actually moved the nights to Doolin.
