Mayo's Ice House Hotel named Ireland’s favourite place to stay in Connaught

The Ice House Hotel, Ballina, has been recognised for its popularity as a contemporary four star hotel.

It has been awarded Ireland’s 'Favourite Place to Stay in Connaught' at the 2021 Hotel & Catering Review Gold Medal Awards.

Ice House Hotel won the award at the 32nd annual awards ceremony which took place at Lyrath Estate Hotel, Kilkenny, beating significant competitors in the region's hotel market to win the title.

Recognised as the industry's most rigorous and competitive independent awards programme, entrants to the Gold Medal Awards came from the four corners of Ireland and underwent a rigorous assessment process from the team of expert industry judges.

“We are delighted to accept this award," said general manager Niall Kerins.

“We’re so proud of the developments at the hotel over the past year, from the spa refurbishment and extension of the outdoor thermal area to our newly revamped restaurant, this award is a testament to the incredible team at the Ice House and all the hard work they’ve put in.”
