We have stayed at this property a number of times and have enjoyed it. We ate at the Gypsy Tea Room, their restaurant, and the food was delicious. There is no elevator access to the 4th floor, which I had forgotten for this stay. I personally feel this needs to be noted as we had a standard room and this is where it was located. If you are carrying a number of pieces of luggage and have any type of mobility issue this is not the floor to be assigned. I just need to remember it for the next booking!

The hotel room and lobby was spot on. The interior - halls, floors and elevator need a face lift. The courtyard has so much potential but it appears it's being neglected. I stayed in similar lodgings with a courtyard in Killarney, Ireland and the courtyard was a focal point for guests and visitors and a revenue stream for the hotel.

The Murray has lost it's "shine" ! Having enjoyed a previous stay, this trip was the opposite. The room allocated (2nd floor) was ok however two hours atfer arrival we discovered a mouse running across the carpet and under the bed. I alerted the front desk and there was no concern expressed until a senior member was called. An alternative room, in another wing, was provided. This room's AC was" controlled" at a central (hotel controlled) temperature and was extremely cold. Worse... we saw another mouse in the public, coffee / snack area near reception (again reported and met with a laugh from the staff) plus a third mouse discovered on the third floor! At no time was there any recognition, apology or concern expressed by the hotel's staff. Extremely poor customer service and a hotel to avoid in it's current condition.

Liked: Hotel backs onto the Main Street with all the restaurants and bars. Rooms are roomy. Staff is nice. Did Not Liked: Rooms smell musty. Rooms are not well insulated for noise. I could hear people talking in the rooms left and right of our room. I could also hear the people walking in the room above us.

It’s an older but classic hotel. In the heart of downtown harbour and very close to all those restaurants and bars. Our room was very quiet after hours and we would definitely stay again.

Staff was very accommodating. Lots of security. Close to everything shops, restaurants, pubs etc. Main street was closed for "pedestrian mall" so no traffic noise. Street musicians were good too.
