The Radisson Blu Sligo is located a mere 5 miles from the center of Sligo town, but more importantly is only a 3-mile drive from the majestic links at Co. Sligo Golf Club (Roses Point), home of the West of Ireland Championships. Overlooked by the stunning Benbulben Mountain and overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, the Radisson Hotel is ideally located for a golf vacation in Ireland North West and sits on the famed Wild Atlantic Way.

The Suites also provide guests with additional space; dining rooms and lounge facilities are included in some of these, and some added touches such as bathrobes and slippers, daily newspapers and complimentary breakfast are included.
