Exceptional breakfast better than most 5 star hotels and cafe area beautifully decorated in unique style. Located centrally in tree lined street within walking distance of all amenities and a short drive from the historic Clonmacnois cultural centre and indeed other attractions. Highly recommended.

Colm Ireland

Breakfast was delicious and the staff were top class. The room was beautifully decorated with a huge en-suite bathroom and a lovely view over the Mall with the horse chestnut trees in full bloom. We were delighted with the fact that we could bring our dog with us and the fantastic Birr Castle and Demesne was just across the road. We loved every minute.

Ailbhe Ireland

A fantastic place to stay and the breakfast was amazing!

Jessica United Kingdom

Lovely spacious room; it was absolutely spotless. We arrived late and emailed Caroline to say that we’d be late - she replied straight away and was so accommodating. Great location - walking distance to pubs and restaurants and such value for money. Brilliant breakfast and the girl who served us was really friendly and helpful. Very impressed with our stay!
