The River Lee Hotel

The River Lee Hotel

8/10 Good
"Great hotel, lovely staff. Car parking is €15 per day if you notify reception, not €3 per hour, which is what the signage says. While we were there the lift from the car park to the hotel didn’t work. The gym door in the car park says no access to the hotel, but this isn’t true their lift only seems to go to the first floor, but the stairs take you to the ground floor. For breakfast everything is available gluten free, you just have to ask. The room was great, but that’s what you pay for."

"The hotel is beautiful and in a great location. It was very warm in the room. But, my biggest concern was that our bathroom window was on the fire scape and did not close or latch. Someone could have walked right into the room."
