Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful! The rooms were beautifully decorated with unique Japanese-style lacquerwork bedside lockers, and spacious. However, the lack of windows made the patio door the only source of air, which was a bit of a drawback. The service was top-notch with incredibly friendly and helpful staff. The location, situated on tree-lined Emmet Square near the Michael Collins museum, was perfect for exploring the town. The dining experience was outstanding with delicious food options. Overall, a fantastic stay!
The hotel offers a mix of positives and negatives. While the rooms are a bit lacking in comfort and fixtures, they are clean with a pleasant surprise of a small balcony. The service is exceptional, making guests feel like family and attending to their needs promptly. The location is unbeatable, offering convenience and lovely views of a park. The dining experience is top-notch with delicious options, and the facilities seem to cater well to guests' needs.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, right in the town with easy access to everything. The rooms were cozy and clean, although a ceiling fan would have been nice as they got a bit warm during hot days. The service was impeccable, especially thanks to Samantha. The dining experience, however, fell short of expectations given the price. Overall, a great value for money.
The hotel is in a central location overlooking Emmet Square, making it easy to explore the charming town. The rooms, while clean and nicely decorated, were a bit dark and not ideal during a heatwave. Dining in the courtyard was a delightful experience, especially the freshly cooked fry. However, the location was not always the best, and the facilities could use some improvements.
