Good enough stay but not sure value for money

Room wasn’t ready at 2pm - but didn’t realise check-in was 4pm (which is quite late in comparison with a vast majority of other hotels). Didn’t receive any info at check-in so had to initiate eg breakfast times&location, bars&restaurants. Decor in foyer & bars& communal area was lovely - very comfortable with lots of wee nooks & seating areas. Bedrooms were very spacious with lots of storage. Bathroom was decent but a bit tatty in areas eg grotty grout & silicone, yellow mismatched bath panel. Shower wasn’t powerful at all. Breakfast was ok - not a massive selection - and a very tight area & heavily congested. Staff were pleasant enough, not overly friendly or interested but still pleasant. The biggest peeve was having to pay an extra €25 per person for spa usage! I’ve never had to pay extra for spa when I’ve been a guest! Needless to say we never used it. Overall it was a nice enough stay but not sure it was value for money.

2 night b&b stay. So pleasantly surprised how beautiful rhe hotel is. Much much nicer than website shows. Lovely ambience and fabulous service. Very friendly staff who are the happiest I've seen in most hotels. Niamh is particularly helpful and very entertaining, nothing was too much trouble. Entertainment on both nights was brilliant. Everyone really enjoying themselves singing along with the music and up dancing. Will most definitely be back. Highly recommend

Lovely setting, excellent friendly staff.

The hotel staff brilliant in reception and bar. I chose hotel for location and the Spa looked amazing online. I arrived late and was disappointed that the Spa closed at 7pm and reopens 9am so didn’t get to use it. The reception kindly opened gym for me but couldn’t use the fantastic Spa. The GYM is being renovated and has signs advertising this so that was fine it looked tired, however no wipes or towels to clean down equipment. I had to ask for iron as none in the room and again reception sorted it. I didnt notice until the morning no hairdryer either and at £140 per night dissapointed.
