10/10 Exceptional

Hotel was very nice with history to it. We enjoyed the bar and the breakfast spread in the morning. Easy to park in the lot by the hotel. Our room was a bit plain, but we were visiting Cliffs of Moher and did not mind a more simple room.

8/10 Very good

Lovely hotel, seemed to cater for everyone, from couples on a short stay to wedding parties. Very comfortable hotel in a very convenient location for Ennis town centre and the surrounding area. Nice entrance and reception, nice lounges and bar and the breakfast was huge and sets you up for the day. Free parking directly outside. Would recommend and will return.

Great hotel

My wife and I arrived for a 3 night stay. The hotel was spotless. The staff at reception were so friendly and professional. We booked a Deluxe room which was fantastic and absolutely spotless. We ate at the hotel for 2 nights and found the food and service excellent. The breakfast was equally as good.. the hotel is situated 2 mins from main shopping . The other night we ate in a pub called Knox's. .Staff were super and food also. Lovely Hotel and great spot for turning.

Fabulous Stay in Ennis

All staff were friendly, professional and did everything they could to make our stay wonderful. It is also the perfect location to explore Ennis. Room was clean and comfortable. Can’t think of anything that could have been better.

Wonderful Hotel, Great Service

The staff were incredibly kind and assisted me with the local bus and train timings, even flagging that bus fare is cash-only and they broke my large bill. Top notch service from everyone that I interacted with at the hotel. It was very humid and although there is no a/c, my room had a fan. The bed was very comfortable and it was one of the most spacious rooms I stayed in Scotland. The bathroom was extremely clean. The pub is great and has live musicians playing traditional music. Highly recommend staying here!

Great hotel. The staff was fantastic very warm and welcoming. Laundry service was a bit expensive, but very well worth it. Breakfast was great and we loved the dinner options too. Wonderful servers and delicious meals. Very convenient to shopping and the train station.

Staff were very friendly. However, the elevator was not working and carrying several suitcases up several floors without any assistance was not upmost service. Bathroom seems unclean. Can’t open windows all the way for fresh air.
