Lovely, helpful staff and very good sized rooms. Beds are comfortable. Breakfast was really good as they have a separate section for gluten free, including a really good GF granola. The hotel is very warm but the aircon worked well in my room. The first room it did not and I was very kindly moved to a different room. I cannot comment on the other hotel facilities as I didn’t get time to use them. But overall I had a really lovely stay. Would stay here again.

Good points.
Asked to change rooms and this was done without hesitation which was welcomed.reception was excellent. A quick breakfast to go was at hand in a take away barista within the reception area which was good value and just what we needed before we checked out.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The Sunday check in staff was so unfriendly and quite bothered. The room & hotel is definitely not worthy of a 4star rating. The room was clean but the facility is old and in serious need of an update. Toilet flush was faulty, broken tiles and the step up into the tub was dangerously high, sockets were loose. During my 4 day stay, no one ever bothered to clean the revolving doors to the hotel, need I say more, that’s your first impression!!! The front desk staff were not friendly as a whole, the cleaning staff on the other hand were much better. They at least acknowledged our presence with a hello/ good morning..it’s a shame bc the location is convenient and a lot could have been remedied with a little effort, just felt a lack of care / attention overall…

Nice room but very stuffy
It was a nice hotel and well appointed rooms. We paid €263 for last minute B&B which was way over priced for a very stuffy room with no window to open. The aircon ran like a tractor, resulting in zero sleep. Breakfast was just ok. Can someone give the breakfast chef a salt and pepper cellar? Eggs were tasteless. Mushrooms tasteless, tomatoes… you guessed tasteless. This shows that breakfast is a need to do with no passion. I have to say all staff were very nice, friendly and attentive. Would I stay again… no would be the honest answer

Great hotell and facilities. Great gym and pool facilities and super staff. Only comments are: Luxury room should have a window that opens and also should have two pillows per person.
