As previously told, Expedia advertising for this property was not correct. Everything had additional costs. Food was not outstanding. Room was not a luxury hotel room. Initial staff greeting was cold and rude.

Tired rooms need TLC
Lovely location but hotel rooms are getting really tired, worn and neglected. Public areas are very fresh so pity about the room. Lighting is woefully inadequate in the room with no light on work desk. Wifi is very fast so that is reflected in the rating. Hope the management take note. Had very good experience before Covid on a previous stay.

Our stay here was our last night after over a week of driving around Ireland and we needed a nice restful/peaceful place and this was it. Also got to meet some of my Irish relatives who stopped by and had drinks and dinner with us. Thanks everyone.

Liked: Cleanliness
Property convenient to the town. Pleasant grounds and reception and bar and restaurant areas. Bedrooms tired, including the card locks on door as they kept malfunctioning. Restaurant pleasant and food good, however the service was slow despite being two thirds empty. Opted out of dessert as waitress took too long to come back. Same room used for breakfast and was over crowded with tables too close together and guests banging into each other in the narrow self service area. In contract the main bar was lovely. Staff and service were excellent and food very good. Only gave a 3 to take account of poor restaurant service. If I was just marking the bar, it would have been 5 stars.

Beautiful hotel with exceptional staff. Duty night manager resolved an issue with noisy residents beautifully. The Spa is fantastic. The full body massage was just what I needed. I'd go back in a heartbeat.
