Thr beds were comfortable and the buffet breakfast was lovely with a big choice. The pool was an added advantage. The hotel was convenient for transport and getting to places by walking. It was a shame we couldnt use the balconies.

We actually choose this hotel because it has a pool. After touring almost the entire Republic of Ireland, I thought my granddaughters would like it. THEY DID! And the breakfast buffet was amazing!

A very nice hotel

We had a lovely 2 night stay at The Clayton Hotel. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. An issue with early check in as room was not ready on time, however we received a small refund to compensate. Breakfast was not included when we came to check in however it was clear on our booking it was, again this was rectified quickly both issues sorted a lovely lady on Reception, who was professional and courteous. Breakfast was fabulous with a fantastic choice. A lovely swimming pool, good size. All in all I would highly recommend this hotel for a city break.
