Great Location&Staff—but interior courtyard rooms

Great hotel and staff. The only drawback was a courtyard interior facing room on a corner by a walkway…limited privacy and I missed fresh air during a 4 nite stay. Great location so would stay again but exterior.
Mona, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Centrally located, very nicely appointed with multiple restaurant options and comfortable room.

Matthew, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location

Due to our plane, we arrived to the hotel very early(9:30am) They held our luggage as we walked around the area. We weren’t able to get into a room until after 13:00. I observed a front desk employee attempt to give our suitcase to another guest from the luggage being held. It took 3 requests to get batteries or a new remote to use the tv. Our room was over the back road so we could hear people yelling most of the night through the windows. Emma at the front desk was wonderful. The breakfast and the restaurant on property were excellent
Holly, 4-night trip

Fantastic hotel, really central, great staff, lovely room. Will book again!
Joanne, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Within range of being a solid choice

Location quite good, breakfast was great, staff was great, associated pool & gym is a big plus, no view from our room, just a very nearby office building. But it was impossible to overlook the big wine stain by our bed, or the other stains on the carpet. We mentioned it on checkout and the answer was the carpet will be replaced. (They should probably start with the room(s) where you can’t get into bed without being reminded of someone’s excessive nightcap.) Also the bathroom sink barely drained, we didn’t mention it until checkout because we didn’t want workmen in our room during our stay.
Cornelius, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very good….room for improvement

Very enjoyable one night stay. At check in Emma was very kind and helpful in getting us a room that suited us…. this was a great start. We were very happy with our room. Breakfast was very good and there was a lovely lady who gave us a table that we liked. The cooked breakfast was good but for a person not having a hot meal, the fruit was disappointing. Also the orange juice was awful and the brown bread was stale
Eamonn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

No complaints - overall it was a nice, comfortable stay! Breakfast was a nice assortment and reasonably priced. Room was comfortable, staff were friendly and hotel was quiet. The gym and pool/sauna area looked great, but I was too busy to try them out. Overall decent stay, but no wow factor.
Liane, 3-night trip

Cork stay

The hotel is nicely located for pubs and restaurants. Check in was fine. We did not have enough towels and no washcloths. Room was a little stuffy. Parking underground was ok but you had to pay it was discounted. Avg hotel but nice front desk staff.
