The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Dinner was good. The menu was extensive but what I didn’t like was that with most of the fish or chicken dishes there was some red meat element included. The breakfast was very good, with a varied selection. Room was a good size for a family of 4.

Verified review

6/10 Good

Pros: The restaurant staff were brilliant very attentive, friendly and always available when we needed anything. The room was comfortable and spacious, which made the stay enjoyable. Cons: The swimming pool and changing rooms could have been cleaner and felt quite cramped, especially with children. I also wasn’t happy about having to pay €3.50 to rent a towel. I didn’t bring my phone or money down to the pool, so I had to take the kids all the way back up to the room to get it. After already paying to stay at the hotel, I feel towels for the pool should be included or at least the charge should be made clear beforehand. Overall: A good stay with excellent restaurant staff and a comfortable room, but the pool facilities and additional towel charge could definitely be improved.

Great time for adults and children alike. The Dome is an amazing facility for the kid’s club and other times in the day, with so much to do. Pool brilliant for all ages. Gym excellent. Dunnes, chemist and other shops close by for anything you might need. Bar entertainment was original and a lot of fun. Food, breakfast, lunch and dinner very tasty (recommend the bangers and mash). Staff very helpful and went out of their way to make our adventure memorable.

Really loved this hotel, facilities were perfect for the whole family, the dome was excellent to entertain the kids & food was top class. Kids are already asking to go back. I’d like to mention the night porter who was lovely & so helpful getting me a taxi so early in the morning 10/10

Very nice room including a lovely bathroom. Quiet hotel. Free parking. Friendly staff. My only complaint is that we wanted to watch Netflix before bed and we couldn’t figure out how to connect to Netflix on the TV. We watched Irish TV instead.

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel and room were very clean. Staff were actively on top of keeping it that way which was great to see. Room was comfortable and spacious. Breakfast was great with lots of options from fruit & yogurt, breads to a full coked Irish breakfast. Parking is a little tight as it is shared with a sports complex but I had no problem getting a space. I was there on a Friday and loved the little crunches left with the "Thank Crunches it's Friday" card. Brought back good memories of growing up I. Ireland.
