Staff really friendly and room was fine although the ensuite was tiny. Nothing major on the wrong side, but very dated and cluttered. The breakfast was the worst thing, .no fruit, limted cerials and the full irish was the worst I have ever had, one overcooked egg, cocktail sausages, and 2 breaded meaty things that oozed fat. No beans, tomatoes, mushrooms or anything vaguely vegetable. The bacon and black pudding was fine.

Staffs are really good. Except for that nothing is appealing about this place. If you don't have a place to stay and want to crash in for one night then this is okay to stay. There is no lock for the toilet, if you squeeze in a little you could fit yourself in the shower:( The Place itself is located in a prime locality where you have Aldi in a min walk and a good few restaurants and Tesco within 3-5 mins drive.

It would have been good to know that there was going to be a party with a DJ the 1st night we stayed there. Our bedroom was directly above the bar!

Lovely staff! So personable. We loved the “emergency” waitress who came in to help serve in the bar/restaurant on Culture Day evening. What a gift to both customers & the hotel staff! Kind & helpful young woman at morning breakfast. We highly recommend this small hotel if you value friendly service & caring staff & owner.

Wonderful
New Park Hotel is a great hotel, staff are wonderful. The owner/chef is very friendly and makes sure that everything is to your liking. Breakfast is amazing. Bed was a bit soft for my liking but the room was large, wonderful bedding. Great water pressure in the bathroom. Lots of towels provided.

The property was a bit worn down, with squeaky floors and thin walls, but the staff were lovely and friendly. Off-street parking was a plus.

A definite recommendation! Friendly courteous staff. Clean rooms. Tasty breakfast. We checked in a little earlier than was expected and completely forgot when we were due to check out but we were met with a smile and told no problem. Gave us some good recommendations for places nearby to eat and how to get the train to Galway. You won’t regret it when you stay at New Park!! Two thumbs up… way up!

Not 4 Star
Definitely not a 4 Star Hotel, old and dated and some of the squeakiest floorboards I have walked on in room 5, although room 4 wasn’t far behind. A wet towel was left in amongst the clean towels, water left in the kettle, 1 sachet of coffee in room, no milk, tho the was rectified after a visit to reception. Good selection of cereals and juice at breakfast but no menu to select a cooked breakfast from.

If you get room 8 don’t bother
Generally a nice place on the ground floor, breakfast was fine. Once when you go up the old carpeted stairs and squeeze into room 8, table lamps don’t work neither would they with the old type pins. No way can you put 3 adults in this room. Then you see the en-suite, I have wardrobes bigger than this! The basin has no plug so you can’t wash in it. In fairness there is a large bathroom but no indication that room 8 can use it! No milk in room either I could go on but no point.
Spot the plug
You can sit on the loo and wash your hands at the same time which is a sales point

Nice stay on our way back from the cliffs of Moher to Dublin. The New Park Hotel has the best brown soda bread....breafast overall was great. Nice rooms and nice for kids too. Thanks to the staff we had a great stay and a good rest! Parking right in the back/side. Assuming i am able to get that wsy again, i would stay again and also try to visit the old church ruins. God bless the staff!

Charming Hotel.
Unique boutique hotel. Tons of charm. Friendly staff. Very reasonable priced. Excellent breakfast. Cooked to order and to perfection. Our room I would say had been recently decorated. I would suggest they use different bedding as I found it uncomfortable. I would suggest they look at new beds. I think most people expect larger bed ( tall men especially) these days. I would certainly stay again.

Very bad
I was able to stay at this hotel as when I got there it was closed abs we had to sleep in our car, which was very dangerous as my husband has sleep apnea and needs he's machine every night but as we couldn't gain entry to the hotel he had to go without, I expect a full refund ASAP

Bathroom was too small in room 8.
We arrived a little early but that was no problem, we where checked in straight away. Room 8 was our assigned room, I would say that the room was clean and adequate for our stay but when we looked at the bathroom we could not swing a cat in it but was clean except for the bottom of the shower unit which had some black mould on it. We where very pleased with the staff who were very pleasant. Breakfast was the only food that we had at the hotel and it was very good. Overall we would say our stay was good except for the bathroom.

This hotel was a perfect starting point for our adventure in Ireland. The hotel is so cute and quaint. The rooms spacious. The staff is super accommodating and kind. The breakfast was BRILLIANT. We had a great visit at New Park and it was a perfect starting point for Galway.
