This was probably my favorite hotel of all the ones we stayed during our tour of Ireland. It was once a hospital and has a lot of neat history. It is located in the Shandon area, very near some beautiful Cathedrals. It is a bit of walk to the actual shopping, but would definitely stay here again. The staff was very nice and accommodating. We stayed in a family room, and it was perfect! King bed in the center, twin beds on each side!

The hotel staff were very polite and helpful. The small onsite parking area was closed for construction so parking was a bit of a problem. The hotel did validate the offsite parking fees which was very helpful.
