"This was a great place! The car park was around the back of the building with plenty of spaces. The room was clean and well maintained and the bed was comfortable. We ate in the bar restaurant and the food was delicious. Our waiter, John, gave us excellent advice on things to see and do in the area and Trish, one of the managers, went above and beyond with hospitality. I’d definitely stay here again."

"Friendly team, lovely spacious and well equipped room with Elemis toiletries in the bathroom. Great food offer and service at both breakfast and dinner. Lots of parking and as a solo female traveller I felt very safe staying here. Great value for money"

My room, as usual was excellent. Being a regular visitor of several times a year, I’ve always found my ‘home from home’ at Doolys hotel. The staff couldn’t be nicer, friendlier or more attentive. They take excellent care of me each time I’m there. From arrival, receptionist is Niamh, Ciara or Marisa, to the bar, restaurant and night porter Gerry. Honestly, every single one of them treat me like I’ve known them all my life. I couldn’t rate them any better. See you all in 6 wks. Marguerite

this was an amazing hotel, the room was very big, bed was so comfortable and the bathroom was also great size,we had a room with a balcony and view, extra bonus as a smoker..breakfast was freshly cooked and plenty of choice, hotel and rooms were very clean..we stayed at a weekend so there was music in the bar as well..the only downside to this hotel is that it is a little bit out of the town so a good 15min walk which we did going into town but got a taxi back out later at night..the grounds are...
