Hello Avril and Neil! Rob and I cannot thank you enough for our PHENOMINAL stay! You set the tone and a VERY bar for the rest of our trip, and, honestly, for our vacationing future! We miss Athlone, and we can’t stop telling our friends and family about the city, you, our wonderful hosts, and beautiful Riverdale House. Your warm hospitality, attention to detail in all aspects of our stay, and your exceptional suggestions about what to do and see in Athlone and beyond were appreciated more than I can express. From the moment we walked through the door, to the kind ride Avril gave us to the train station, we felt so comfortable! Our room was perfect, our meals were delicious, and seeing you both at various times throughout our stay was delightful. Staying at Riverdale House was like staying with dear friends. Thank you again for everything, and please give our regards to the rest of your lovely family. Oh, and sending lots of pets for Harvey! Darlene and Rob Cunningham

Our small family (2 Adult, 1 Teen) stayed comfortably in the Canal Room thanks to the thoughtful layout of the room with amble space around all edges of both beds, plenty of electrical outlets, and well positioned lighting. The decor was traditional but very clean and modernised giving the room a rustic charm while keeping it fresh looking. Walking into town was easily done from this location with a near straight shot to the bridge. Parking was amble, and hosts were authentic and knowledgeable about the town. Our schedule did not allow for sampling of breakfast, but it looked and smelled nice!

En-suite toilet flushing took a while to master, but once understood, was managed easily enough.

Great walkable locating and the property was amazingly clean. Avril and Neil were great host and we had a great stay!

I booked last minute, I had a few questions before arriving and my email was answered immediately. The room was very cosy and the breakfast in the lovely breakfast room was good. I forgot my charger in the room and Neil contacted me so I could pick it up which was greatly appreciated as I needed the cable to charge my phone on the way back to Dublin!

We were welcomed with an open heart in this beautiful B’n’B. A loving home, even if it was just for one night. Thank you for sharing your time and an insight in Irish history and your personal life. It made our last night in this wonderful country very special. We loved the room, decorated so tastefully and very clean, enough space for the suitcases, too.

Everything! The warmth and kindness of the owners, their recommendations, the cleanliness and the quietness of the room. Also the view, as our room was facing a magnificent old willow tree.
