Carine

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean, however it is definitely not a four star hotel as advertised. The room we booked was a superior double and we got a very big room with a double and a single bed which for a romantic getaway really isn’t it. The room was very outdated and in my opinion not worth the money. Location wise - also not ideal as you would still need to drive everywhere or take a taxi.

Overworked staff

The room was clean and well serviced every day with fresh towels and some days a tablet of soap was provided. Unfortunately our experience in the restaurant was not so good; the staff were so busy clearing and laying the tables they didn’t have time to ask what we wanted; on only one day out of four were we asked if we would like to have eggs cooked. Also the hygiene standards weren’t good. The dining room needs refurbishing and lacks ambience. We noted that the stairs are poorly lit.

Galway area visit

We stayed for 2 nights in this hotel in the City of Galway and we were very pleased with the room, the amenities in the room as well as the services in the hotel. We ate at the bistro both evenings and the food and service was very good. There are lovely areas to sit and relax in the lobby areas as well as the gardens. There was also ample parking. We did not use the spa or pool. The area was safe and the centre of town was about a 30min walk but the boardwalk on the waterfront was closer. The property is well positioned for visiting the Galway area, the Wild Atlantic Way and Connemara areas. Also not that far to Ennis and Cliffs.
