Renvyle House Hotel, Galway | Haunted Hotel in Ireland

This beautiful hotel in Galway has a long history. Figures including W B Yeats, Lady Gregory and Winston Churchill visited the original Renvyle House and, Yeats even held a séance here. The newer building dates to 1930, but guests have reported ghostly encounters in this dramatic, coastal retreat.

I had the great good fortune to stay in one of the cottages on the Renvyle estate nearly a decade ago, so never encountered any spirits. But I will say that the energy of the House (my friends and I did go into the main building a few times throughout our stay) has a heaviness to it. Not angry, nor sad; not even aggressive or abrasive - just...a heaviness as though the air stays still. Like the air is waiting for you to do something.
It's a beautiful house and property, anyway. The people of the property and surrounding villages and towns are also just the best kinds of people. We met not one bad egg; everyone was so friendly and kind. I hope to go back with my husband someday.
