Everything was exceptional, myself and my husband had a wonderful stay

Collette · IE · 2026-07-25

A very enjoyable short stay. We would come again.

9.0

Just a one night stay, but we were well pleased with everything. We ate in the restaurant shortly after our arrival, where there was a good choice of menu and it was reasonably priced for this standard of hotel. Restaurant service was prompt and the staff were attentive and well-mannered. Our overall experience of the staff was very good. Our room was spacious and very comfortable with a fridge and safe at no extra charge. The hot breakfast was good, and there was also a reasonably good choice of cold buffet options as well. We visisted in high season and were glad that we choose to eat early in the evening (6.30 pm) as the restaurant got quite busy later. Likewise in the morning we had a table straight away for breakfast a 9 am, but after 9.30 pm there was a late rush and a queue to be seated.
