Noisy rooms

Our room upon arrival seemed ok but once we went to bed at 9.30, there was constant noise from other rooms and the service lift next to our room. At 10.05 we went to investigate as we thought noise like that after 10 completely unacceptable. We discovered it was a member of staff moving bedding trolleys around ready for the next day. We were then offered a different room at 10.15. We then packed up all our belongings and moved to room away from the service lift. We finally got to bed after 11.30pm. We now found that there were washing machines/tumble dryers going in the space below us. The laminate floors in the rooms just amplified any noise. Possibly the worst two nights stay during our month long trip in Ireland. This hotel was also the most expensive of our stays and was not worth the money we paid! The member of staff was helpful in moving us and very apologetic so we don’t blame them in any way but it’s the hotel itself. The hotel actually had signs asking guests to respect peace and quiet for other guests. It’s a pity the hotel didn’t think about peace and quiet for guests by following their own request for peacefulness.
