    We love staying at the Dolphin Hotel when we visit Inishbofin. Dog friendly and in a great location between the harbour and the East End beach. Pat is a great host and always makes us feel very welcome.

    Love staying in the Dolphin Hotel. We got one of the downstairs rooms this time and they are very spacious. Breakfast was big and hearty. Pat was very helpful as usual with information and lifts to and from the ferry. We will be back again.

    First, Inishbofin is amazing. Second, the rooms were large as was the bathroom. The location was good. The best though was Pat. Pat is the host, owner & operator. He is very knowledgeable, attentive, nice, and most of all he is quite funny!
