Accommodations and service were great. The only downfall was a very noisy heater. Every time the fan kicked on it sounded like sleet hitting our window.
Amazing place to stay. Rooms were comfortable and nice sized. Pool and hot tub were a great place to meet some fun travelers! Everything was very clean! Pool towels could be larger, they are more of a hand towel size. Restaurant has amazing food! Authentic Irish food! Brian was our shuttle driver and provided great tips on the area. Went above and beyond for customer service!! It was nice to go out and have a great time and not have to worry about driving! Breakfast was very tasty and set us up for a great day! Highly recommend this hotel!

Breakfast was awesome. Not a fan of the pillows. To soft. Lol
Very quaint and very Irish. Loved it. Faerie Ring was magical. The irish band at night brought some flair to the night. The bar was warm and inviting.
