    Everything was pristine. Beautiful carpark and grounds. Hearty, friendly welcome on arrival. Totally clean reception area, lift is clean and bright. Corridors perfect. The bedroom is totally perfect, the facilities are 100%. Excellent Nespresso coffee machine and tea making facilities.Bathroom, spacious and clean. Television channels worked without any problems. WiFi is excellent throughout the hotel. The bed is comfortable. None of the above happens without the staff. The reception and restaurant staff are friendly and efficient. A major asset to the hotel. The housekeeping staff are on top of their work. Terrific value for money hotel. We will be back. Thank you.

    Rooms could be a little bigger.

    Receptionist with blond hair was absolutely lovely. Helped us with a minor issue we had, resolved it very fast. On top of that, we were looking to pay for a later checkout and were given two hours complimentary. Couldn’t believe our luck. We were very happy with her. Breakfast was delicious and there was quite the variety to chose from on menu!

    Saturday can get a bit loud with partying but it’s also a bonus having a lovely restaurant and bar on site so comes with the territory

    Luxurious for a small town stop where we stayed two nights and didn’t want to leave

    Very very good.......!

    It is hard to fault anything, there was just one small thing I'd have liked. The room was very dark (which was fine), but if you wanted to get up in the night, say, to use the bathroom, any light you turned on was very bright! It would be nice to have a faint light, in the bathroom? Like I say, minor point, we got round it by leaving the curtains open for some ambient light.

    The accommodation was very good, room and other areas of the hotel. Done in a (dare I say) typically Irish style. In keeping with the area though. I don't think a modern design hotel would have worked here. Food was very good, bar area served up to 9:00PM, a good range, and offered food throughout the day. Breakfast too was very good, from simple porridge to a traditional Irish breakfast which was not over the top like some can be. Very accommodating when we asked for a couple of changes. Staff were excellent, pleasant, and always happy to help. Very short walking distance to the main attraction, the Discovery Park, although we didn't go due to other commitments it is worth a walk around. The rest of the town has little to offer. Kilkenny is the nearest tourist town and worth a visit on a nice day. The grounds are nice, some good planting and I noticed some bulbs starting to appear, it should look nice in the Spring and Summer.

    Our room, although only a double was quite small and didn't leave a lot of room for two people to change or move around. The room was also situated at the front of the hotel and had an old style sash window which didn't close fully and so the room was on the cold side.

    The room was clean and all the staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was good and arrived quickly.
