Amazing Breakfast Experience

“I had a fantastic breakfast at the hotel where Sarah greeted us with warmth and efficiency. The variety of options was excellent and the bangers and mash were the best I had during my whole trip in Ireland. Starting my day with such delicious food truly set the tone for an enjoyable experience.” view full review

Live Music Night

“One of the best parts of my stay was enjoying the live music at the bar each night. The vibrant atmosphere filled the space with energy, and I loved how the bartenders, Collum, Rory, and Tiernan, not only served drinks but also engaged us with interesting stories about whiskey. It made our group feel connected and added a unique touch to our evenings.” view full review

Luxury in the Shower

“The shower in my room was powerful and refreshing, providing a perfect way to unwind after a long day of exploring. The vegan-friendly toiletries added a nice touch, showing that the hotel cares about providing quality amenities for its guests.” view full review

Comfortable and Cozy Space

“My room was not only spacious, but it also had thoughtfully provided earplugs. Since the hotel is right in the heart of the action, I found this considerate gesture to be immensely helpful. The comfortable bed and clean environment made it easy to relax and enjoy my stay.” view full review
