The Twelve Review

Named for the famous Twelve Pins mountain range of Connemara, this old-world roadside inn has revamped itself in recent years into a luxurious, modern, four-star boutique guesthouse. Most guest rooms have comfortable king-size or twin beds, and some have fold-out sofa beds for families traveling with children. Beds are covered in fluffy comforters and soft bedspreads; windows have peaceful views. The West Restaurant downstairs is one of the best in the area. Its menu features fresh local seafood and produce; try the marinated salmon carpaccio, or the lobster, crab, and prawn terrine. This is a pet-friendly hotel; just call ahead if you want to bring your dog. Check the website for good special offers and inclusive deals.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
