A very nice hotel. We were given a wonderful room, very large, spacious and comfortable. The food and service were both excellent. As the hotel is an hours drive from Rosslaire, we will use the hotel as our stopping point when we next visit Ireland from the U.K.

Outstanding food
Friendly and efficient staff, nice ambience and one of the best hotel meals I have ever experienced (and I have experienced hundreds). The terrine and then hake to follow were exceptional and my wife had a steak which she described as 'best ever'. We will definitely return.

Clean and spacious rooms, bar food good
Clean spacious room. Bathroom a bit cold. We stayed at the front of the hotel and there was a bit of on-street noise but it didn't go on too late. We ate in the bar in the evening and the food was very good.

Very nice boutique hotel
Lovely hotel and room. Staff extremely friendly. Good bar and restaurant. The only downsides were the wait and mox up at breakfast and the shower stopped working in the morning.
