Price. Nothing else! Very late check-in time of 3.30pm, and we had to wait until 4.40pm on top of this.Considering they have a ridiculous check out time of 11.30am they had plenty of time to have rooms ready. We left our room one day as cleaners were outside. They had just put refreshing towels in a bag hanging out of the door. Even though they saw us leaving they didn't bother to clean our room. Very poor decor. Place needs a serious re- vamp. Room was very dirty, stains on the carpets, stinked of freshener, no toilet brush, no hotel information. Breakfast very questionable, buffet not fresh, orange juice stank, staff dis-interested looking. Didn't appear to be anyone in charge. 2 sick tummies in the group. Bar food and drinks not much better. No free wi-fi in rooms. Old Days Hotel signage up. Are they too lazy to replace this? Very bad for brand image.

For me, it was also a trip down memory lane. I stayed at this hotel 40 years ago when my late husband and I came to Ireland on honeymoon. It wa then known as Ryans Hotel.. We had a wonderful time and my biggest memory was my husband's joy when he had oats porridge with cream on it. I would say it was good then and it has the same qualities now, only bigger. If I have one critiscism it is at breakfast time. There needs to be some way of organising the individual guests from the coach parties as one gets into a long queue anad can wait some time before getting to a table.. As I mentioned above, the organisation at breakfast time. Also as one person travelling alone, I think staff should be made aware of looking around carefully as one can be overlooked when they are requiring sevice especially in the lounge.

Poor check in, slow and unhelpful. Dreadful organisation. Breakfast was a disaster, queuing for over thirty minutes to get a table. No hot water in the room on the last morning.

The service was excellent. The leisure centre was brilliant for the children, especially with our weather conditions The hotel is close to the Sea and to the shops. Breakfast served up to 11 which was great as we could get a swim in before breakfast. The food was lovely. I picked up my niece on the way down, which was an extra person, there was no problem, a fold up bed was put into the room, no issue made.

The receptionist was more than helpful when we got in late onMonday night last, we had to ring and look for exact directions, he was more than helpful even with his unusual accent was quiet clear.Helped with the voucher query that we had. Compident staff make the difference.

The service was helpful and efficient and the staff very friendly We used both the bar and the main restaurant for dining. In both the foofd was of a high standard and reasonably priced. I also used the health club which was excellent. The room that we had opened out onto the back of the hotel where the heating/ventilation system was placed. This was extremely noisy which meant we were unable to have the window open at all. Not ideal as it was quite warm and the room didn't have airconditioning.

It was priced well and the service was good and it was nice and quiet I have stayed at the Carlton before and found that the lighting in the Bedroom was totally inadequate and i was unable to read in bed which i like There are enough of Lamps but i feel that the Shades are blocking most of the light that should come from the lamps When i last stayed in the Hotel i did tell the Receptionist about the lights bur nothing has been done iI hope that ye will look at the lighting and that when i come again i will find that i will be able to read in comfort with due to the improved lighting in the bedroom

Really liked the atmosphere in the public bar area..the food was amazing.. I loved the leisure centre that they have there too.. The noise in our room from outside was really loud as they had loud music playing where there was an ice skating rink set up. Also one morning we were a few minutes late for breakfast and they would not cook anything for us and rushed us out as we were eating the cereal which was the only selection of food that we could at the time choose from..

This is the 3rd new years weekend iv spent in the carlton and it never fails to meet expectations. Cracking leisure centre really eases that hangover pain and there is a nice atmosphere throughout the place.
