I had a good room on the 5th floor with a good view of the church next door. Room was tidy and made up everyday. Breakfast selection is good and the bar is nice to sit in. The car park is really tight and you are lucky if you get a space. Not a deal breaker though and i'd book to stay again.

Hotel had it all, buffet breakfast was terrific, excellent swimming pool which i enjoyed before breakfast, while my husband made good use of the gym, and tried the sauna. Staff friendly and helpful, when the tv had a signal issue maintenance fixed it at once. Very clean, comfortsble room, lovely touches such as Irish water in containers and biscuits in room, enjoyed the whole atmosphere.

Ah it is ok. For €170 solo, a bit poor value. It's a budget hotel charging semi-premium prices. Pay more and go elsewhere. Food was very bland. I just don't get it here. I travel a lot.

Walls paper thin, plumbing was incredibly loud - literally avoided flushing the toilet at night. Parking is a nightmare. That being said, staff were incredibly nice, especially in the restaurant.
