I’d like this hotel and the location it’s a bit of a walk to the main area, but if you’re in good condition, it’s not a problem. One of the downfalls of this hotel is that the parking is so tight that I had to have people move their cars in order for me to get mine out a little scary.

Lovely old hotel, right in the center of town. Parking was impossible, ended up using the recommended car park and the validation they sold me at the hotel didn't work, so got to pay double for parking. But the hotel itself was really nice.

I love this hotel with is quirky nature. Renovated from an old hospital. The history and photographs are amazing. Parkig on site is limited but you can be lucky to get a space here. Worse case scenario there's another carpark near the hotel for a reasonable price. Staff are very friendly and for the age ofvthe building its very clean and well presented. A great spot

Hotel had it all, buffet breakfast was terrific, excellent swimming pool which i enjoyed before breakfast, while my husband made good use of the gym, and tried the sauna. Staff friendly and helpful, when the tv had a signal issue maintenance fixed it at once. Very clean, comfortsble room, lovely touches such as Irish water in containers and biscuits in room, enjoyed the whole atmosphere.
