Clarion Hotel Sligo  

size of the room

I thought the staff we met on our arrival looked under pressure and could have been more courteous. The swimming pool was filthy. (Our stay was over the first weekend in febuary). The family room we stayed in was cold and any window you sat near always seemed to have a cold breeze same in the residence bar.

I paid 80 Euros per night because theThe Hotel falsely claims that it is five minutes walk from the center. It was far from the center, and moreover there were no transportations near by. I had to spend over 50 euros a day just for using taxis. I asked for a refund of these taxi rides, but no one ever got back to me. Not Recommended At All !!!!!!!!

Very good accomodation Staff friendly and very caring. Food excelent and varied

Shocked to find my room was occupied at time of my check in and access was handed out at desk as if everything was in order-- ---this has left a very bad impression on me re booking on line in future .The fact that I could gain access to a room already occupied gives me the impression that security and privacy and indeed efficiency is totally absent as shown in this instance.

Great value for money

No shower gel or shower caps in the room.

Beautiful setting

Beds could be more comfortable and some parents could have controlled their out of control kids jumping on the furniture in reception every night

The grounds of this beautiful 'old-type-castle' were stunning. All the staff took great pride in their work and were extremely friendly and helpful. Near for shopping, beeches, scenic drives. Lots to do and see for all the family. Our family room was great consisting of living/kitchen area, table chairs, comfy seats, tv, fridge etc. A separate double room ensured our adult privacy whilst within 'earshot' of the children who loved having their own space. Highly recommend this hotel as a family break and we'll definetly return. Though intend to return for a 'romantic' break and take full use of spa facilities etc. Looking forward to do so in near future.

My ten year old son was reluctant to use swimming pool as his feet didn't reach the bottom of the pool!, though the children's pool was good for younger children it was too shallow for him and his eleven year old brother to swim in. After dinner-time/early evening were difficult to fill, a little family entertainment would have been ideal, though younger children did get story-time. Maybe it was a personal thing, but my 2 boys wouldn't be bothered to go into town even after an early dinner. They did enjoy the miniature golf!

The location

Staff could have been friendlier and breakfast was poor

Very family friendly with good facilities

I really enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere of the hotel, very calming. My room was beautiful, very clean and comfortable stay.

Spacious room

I liked the history of the place, the staff and the ease of relaxing there. I was upset that I found 1 nail clipping when taking my shoes off the carpet beside my locker. The lighting in the bathroom is non existant for guests and the shower is not strong enough when using same. We were also pleased with the bar food and disappointed there was no music on friday and the restaurant was not open. Keep up the extras...
