Gave a perfect 5*️⃣ because the hotel was amazing. If you are a woman be wary of walking into town after dark as I was catcalled by several drunk men. Not the hotel’s fault though and it was a 25-ish min walk away.

didn't like to be charged for a child's hot cocoa for breakfast. also, it should have been noted that swim caps must be worn in the pool- which they charged for also. just felt like we were 'nickle and dimed' between the cocoa and swim caps.

A well located hotel, in close proximity to the town, with ample free parking. Our dinner was of a good standard. Food arrived quickly and was piping hot. The rooms are spacious, with adequate storage, and a decent sized shower/toilet. We found everything to be clean and our bed was comfortable. All good so far. The disappointment is the breakfast. The food itself wasn't too bad, our complaint is regarding the service and the system. Firstly, they do sittings. Now that's new to me, I've never had to book a half hour window for breakfast. Initially I wondered if this might ehance our experience, assuming it meant the restaurant would be prepared for the numbers. Therefore the food stations would be fully stocked and there would be sufficient servers to make our dining experience positive. Not so. When you arrive at your designated time you are pretty much ignored as the staff continue to clear tables, and reset for what looks to be for lunch. Eventually someone shows you to a table. On both mornings we were chaperoned to a table that wasn't reset for breakfast. So we'd no menu. One cup but 2 guests. No butter or milk. The food stations were not replenished, no pancakes nor brown bread, no croissants or yogurt, no cereal bowls. The fruit salad consisted only of apple. There were no side plates, and no-one came to take a tea/ coffee or toast order. We had to go ask. Your system doesn’t works guys. We've had better in fast food outlets.

Food was nice in bar restaurant. Breakfast at best was adequate, dirty crockery & cutlery. Staff not sure which order was for which person. Overall cleanliness needs improving. Receptions were lovely ladies & very welcoming. Good undercover parking.

Excellent experience. Reception staff on arrival was very welcoming as were others. Room was excellent at a great rate. Found hotel to be very clean. One minor issue was the bar. Service maybe a bit slow even though not overly busy. Overall very satisfied and would definitely recommend and return.

The property is extremely old looking and run down. You were next to a mixed looking neighborhood. The front desk staff were pleasant but I would NOT recommend staying here. We needed a hotel between Trim Castle and Rock of Cahir, after a long day and this was the "best" I could find. I would not go back and wouldn't recommend it even for just an overnight.

Internet is slim to non existing

Hotel is nice, but has very weak internet even in the lobby and basically non existing on the third floor. So if a WiFi connection is important to you, you better find a different hotel.

Adequate for weekend / overnight stay

Hotel situated a km away from town centre. Limited parking out front but large parking out back. Room comfortable and clean, with cot as requested. Service in the reception and restaurants was very good. Food tasty though some cleanliness concerns. Leisure facilities, more so the change rooms are dated.
