A little gem of a hotel,very clean and comfortable. Food and hospitality is outstanding. The breakfast alone just sets you up for the day. Located in the main street means its a great location for seeing all the sights this place has to offer. Good size car park at the rear of property with access to the hotel.

.Located in the centre of town, Easy to check in. The Hotel is a tad tired and needs a lick of paint. The rooms were clean and functional. The bar in the evening was great craic. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely and freshly cooked..Again staff were great.. Would stay again but its not the London Ritz.

Lovely friendly staff and comfy beds. Only one small complaint, there's no vegetarian or vegan option on the evening dinner menu. All the vegetables were cooked to absolute perfection with the perfect amount of bite, but not quite enough on their own. Just a little nut cutlet or bean burger and you would have perfection! Thanks for another enjoyable stay, look forward to seeing you again next year.

Really enjoyed our stay. Food was great. Full Irish breakfast of course and a rib eye burger with chips. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will book again. Hotel is comfortable and very traditional. Decor not the latest fashion but its not expensive and is great value for money and very clean.

Can't fault a place which treats you so well! Casual comment to Eileen, the 'maid' that it was my wife's birthday, resulted in a gorgeous bouquet delivered to our room. Just one example of how well we were treated. Breakfast till 11:00 is a huge bonus, and food was uniformly excellent.
