The hotel was clean and charming with very accommodating staff and really good food. The room was spacious and we had everything we need. A working window is sometimes helpful when you get too warm. This hotel is in a great location for walking to many sites and transportation to and from is easy.

Lovely Hotel.

The hotel was very nice, the food was excellent and the services was really good. We had a standard room which was also very good but a little small. Overall a really enjoyable stay.

Beautiful hotel in an area close to everything. The train station was a short walk away and convenient since we had to catch it early the next morning. The hotel staff was very helpful. Highly recommend this hotel.

Everything you need is within walking distance from the hotel. The parking is down the road within walking distance as well. Unfortunately you do have to pay by day other hotels in Ireland stamped our parking so we didn’t have to pay. A full day is 10 euro so make sure to prepar for that.

Incredible service!

This was a very nice, well looked after hotel but what really stood out was how the staff went out of their way to ensure that we were having a great stay. I can’t even single out anyone in particular as we saw this among multiple staff members! Kudos to you!

Excellent front desk staff. Went out of the way to deliver toast, juice etc.to our room at midnight . We had been at the emergency dept.in Tralee for hours due to an accident early in afternoon and had no opportunity to eat dinner. The delivered tray of food was very much appreciated. We ate one meal in the pub which we enjoyed. Very good service. Each morning we enjoyed breakfast in the large breakfast room. We loved the porridge and the granola/yogourt/berries. Only complaints ..it is an older hotel and the hallways are like navigating a maze ! Also, climbing in to very tall bathtub to shower with an injured knee was tricky. Wish the rooms had walk in showers.
