BlackCat
Location: 179 Upper Salthill / book your stay here
BlackCat is one of those places that once you find it you never want to leave. Thankfully for us, (and you) it’s home to a number of boutique guest bedrooms meaning that you can stay for as long as you’d like. These rooms are compact but tastefully designed with special considerations for the original features and character of the 200 year old building. Due to the size of the rooms, these bedrooms are adults only. Downstairs is BlackCat’s award-winning tapas bar and it’s the perfect place to immerse yourself in the buzz of Salthill’s community spirit while enjoying delicious small plates and wine.
