"The beds were lovely & comfortable. The room including bathroom were very clean. The staff were very helpful, especially as our tv didnt work properly. They couldnt fix it & apologised then gave us complimentary drinks including a bottle of wine at dinner. The kettle was also broken but they were able to replace it. The food was excellent. We didnt go to the spa as we had young children with us. Would definitely go back."

8/10 Good
"The property is a fairly nice place. Nothing special as far as rooms go, and the lack of air conditioning was a definite negative on a hot day. Windows helped but they don't have screens in the windows. Front desk staff was very friendly. Parking was easy. Grounds were very nice. My children enjoyed exploring the grounds."

The Killeshin Hotel

The Killeshin Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel is nice with two places to eat, an outdoor seating area, and a couple of floors with rooms. I had a room above the main entrance and while it was comfy, there was absolutely no noise prevention with either the window or the door. I could hear everything. There's a tag that offers ear plugs, but I'd rather see them invest in better sound proofing. The bed was firm, which I enjoyed. It's close to some food options as well in the area. I can't speak to the food options in the hotel as I didnt eat there. Overall comfy, but the noise was noticeable. Staff is very friendly."
