Arrived on Thursday for a family funeral. Check-in wasn't until 4 however the lady on reception Augustin I think her name was went above and beyond to try and get us an earlier check-in. Staff were so accommodating and put up a lovely spread of sandwiches' and soups the following day at short notice. Such a lovely team working there.

Rachel Ireland

Found 3pm a very late check in. I phoned the hotel on the21st March to book a room, was told it was fully booked out. I went on Bookings.com and got a room without any problem €111, it was showing 5 rooms available, thought it was strange that the hotel said they were fully booked.

Martina Ireland

The staff were extremely friendly and the room was lovely.

Carmel Ireland

Room was lovely over looking the river, clean and noise free.

Catherine Ireland

Staff were excellent, brasserie top notch , room clean

Brian Ireland
