Good value ovenight stop-over
Comfortable hotel not far off the motorway. Good overnight stop. The main restaurant was closed (mid week) but there was another dining option in the bar. While a bit noisy as there were TV's on, the menu was OK and the food, both the bar menu & the Breakfast was tasty & well cooked. I felt the hotel was good value for the standard. We would stay again.

The property is lovely but you do need transport to find eating places around if yiu dont want to eat in the hotel. There, really isnt much around the property but well maintained, food great and staff great. One thing i will say, is that they tell you to use the bath mat in the shower. Definitely use this as the bath is extremely slippery.

The room was fine and the servers for breakfast did their best but they could not handle the number of guests. They were working very hard but were unable to take our order in a timely manner. Too bad as the menu looked good. Maybe a buffet would work better?

We stayed here on our last day in Ireland. We'd already spent time in Dublin and we're coming in from Killarney. This hotel was very reasonably priced $150 or so Euros, and was recently renovated, with a nice pool and Spa. We picked it b/c it had good reviews and was a short drive to Dublin Airport. The facilities were nice, people friendly. They had some sort of autorally race event when we were there, so we saw some cool cars. Took a taxi downtown, it was a bank holiday so it was pretty crowded. Went to a few bars and saw some live music. (Not folk , but foo fighters cover band). So in all, great value, close to airport (30 min drive) and fun town.

Hotel rooms need a facelift, our sink had cracks in it. The furniture I.E. dresser is in need of a refurbishment. Having said that, the staff themselves were very pleasant and helpful.

Nice hotel but....
Arrived around 1930 and the restaurant looked really busy so decided to order room service and do some work in my room - took nearly 30 minutes to get someone in room service to answer the phone and even then it was a call back after reception had sent someone over to ask them to call me back
