history and comfort

Liked: We love this hotel's sense of history and gorgeous architecture. The staff were wonderfully friendly, it was easy to park, and the room was spacious. The decor of the hotel is truly unique, with beautiful wallpaper. The breakfast included many options. The beds and linens were comfortable. The walls of the hotel are thick, and ew found our room to be particularly quiet.
Disliked: Breakfast service seemed understaffed, though the servers were very gracious.

Very good

Liked: Free parking albeit very tight spaces. very clean and well appointed rooms and only 25 minute walk into Dublin
Disliked: Breakfast was over priced and very few options if you didn’t want full irish breakfast. Ended up paying €15 for a cup of tea and toast. Would have liked a fridge in room…

Lovely place to spend our...

Liked: This well-appointed hotel in a beautifully converted old school building called out to me as a retired educator. : D We were warmly welcomed and treated during our stay, our room + bath was beautiful(!), the bed was super-comfortable, and we had a lovely green view of the side garden. The restaurant and bar on the premises was a convenient bonus. Such a find!
Disliked: Can't think of a thing!
