Fabulous stay, very friendly staff, especially Sharron who couldn’t do enough for us, even finding out the make of the coffee cups for me!! Just one thing that we thought could be improved would be to have a kettle for teas and coffees in the room rather than having to go down to the basement, otherwise a great stay.

Disappointed
The room was very small for the (not insignificant) price. When we checked in, reception did not ask us if we needed help with our bags (which would have been useful). The location is also quite out of the center for tourist destinations. I would not choose to stay here again.

A beautiful place to stay. Staff was extremely kind and accommodated our early check out needs. A hand written welcome note in the room was a lovely touch. Very nice common area with treats available was also a plus.

Building is very secure. Cafe staff who checked us in was very pleasant and helpful. She made excellent restaurant recommendations. As for the room, it is very modern, however, providing a kettle and some cups in the room would be more preferable than to trek downstairs to grab a basic drink of tea or coffee.

Personal Touches, Clean, and Fantastic Staff
One of the nicest places I've ever stayed. Its the little details that make it amazing. Free tea and coffee and water in the basement lounge, which is just a nice place to chill in. The rainforest shower in the room was amazing. Bed was super comfy. A personal hand written note card in the room on arrival. Staff were so helpful and friendly and genuine. My only negative would be the price of breakfast in the cafe...the food still tasted amazing, but for 2ppl, we had a total of 4 slices of toast, 4 poached eggs, avocado and feta with one, and 2 small slices of streaky bacon with the other, 2 sides of mushrooms, 1 latte, and one cappuccino (oat milk)...all of which cost us €35! Much too steep for breakfast in my opinion. On the other hand, when checking out, they offered us coffee to take away, which really should have just been given at breakfast then. Overall, I would definitely stay here again, I'll just go elsewhere for the breakfast.

This hotel is modern and clean and staff was friendly. Great café and breakfast. The surrounding area is pretty old but we did find a couple of good spots to eat. As far as the room, there is no place to put your personal belongings in the bathroom or shower. The sink is so incredibly small that it makes it hard to even wash your face without getting the floor wet. In addition, the air conditioning turned on for a few minutes and then would automatically turn off. This made for a very uncomfortable, sleepless night.

Best Place to Stay in Limerick
Due to the current restrictions my boyfriend and I wanted to treat ourselves to a night in Limerick. We have stayed at the Bedford before and we decided we had to go again! Aileen at reception is honestly one of the nicest humans I have ever met and she was so friendly and helpful. The room, as always, was spotless and the bed there is extremely comfortable. Also they had complementary drinks and chocolates in their basement parlour room which added to our amazing stay. I would highly recommend staying at the Bedford townhouse if ever visiting limerick or even a staycation.
