    Of the B & Bs and guesthouses we enjoyed in Ireland, Adare House was the best. Location was perfect--beside a park, in a safe neighborhood, in walking distance to the Spanish Arch and other attractions. Breakfast was phenomenal, so many choices, perfectly prepared, and served in an elegant dining room. The room was beautifully decorated, spotless, light, and airy. Ciara, our hostess, was congenial, relaxed, and attentive to our needs. Felt like we were staying in a luxurious private home.
