It's ultra modern vibe with two bars and an award winning restaurant adds to the details that were certainly not overlooked when designing it. Although I personally am not a fan of orange and my room has orange chairs and carpet, that is a minor detail that can easily be overlooked. I know some rooms are orange and some are green. The carpet along the hallways and art work actually reminds me of Coachella which is hilarious since it was pretty recent. The bed is super comfortable and the pillows also extremely comfortable. Only in the middle of the night did I notice that the bed was actually two twin beds pushed together to make a queen size bed. I switched back to the right side and fell back asleep comfortably. The room was extremely spacious and the view of the river from my room remarkable. The bathroom clean and sleek and stocked with the perfect toiletries including liquid body wash which I prefer so much compared to the bars of soap that dry out your skin. For dinner, I went to the cafe on the first floor that serves food until 10 pm and had a delicious vegetable soup with brown bread, as well as an apple and pear tart with crumble served with vanilla custard and whipped cream. The best surprise was the two mini Cadbury eggs on the exquisite plating. They are my favorite Easter candy, and they taste so much better in Ireland than in the States. I was full from the lunch I had, but I knew if I didn't eat I would wake up in the middle of the night famished. Breakfast is served in The Kitchen and is a nice buffet served with options for people who prefer gluten free. I think breakfast is my least favorite meal in Ireland because I just don't enjoy black pudding and beans with overly seasoned grilled tomatoes, but I have been content when I find porridge and fruit. I did enjoy fried egg whites and delicious bread with some fruit...and the butter. Irish butter is just so good. This hotel is sure to please everyone who stays here, and I highly recommend it when in Sligo.

The hotel is not directly on the seafront and it's probably about a 12-minute walk into town. The lobby is minimally decorated but very clean and all the staff are genuinely polite, quick and eager to please. The rooms are a dream -- very very large, great balconies with views of the sea, spacious bathrooms with excellent water pressure and big comfortable beds. Free wifi, free parking and complimentary "continental" breakfast. "Continental" in the most self-effacing sense, this breakfast actually includes an impressive spread of cold cuts, yogurts, cereals, boiled eggs, scones, croissants, tea, coffee, juice. We got what we wanted out of Strandhill: a moment of repose, reflection, refreshment and zero hassles. The best place to stay in this town.

An exceptional experience from start to finish! Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, was perfect…read more Check in was a breeze..we just went up to the gentleman at the desk, gave him our name, and he handed us the key to our room. It took, maybe, three minutes. He also confirmed our dinner reservations for the evening. In the lobby (which was more like a grand hall), they had a lovely array of complimentary coffee, teas, and pastries...all served with beautiful bone china. The castle is absolutely stunning both inside and out. The interiors are grand, and the grounds are just beautiful. We spent several hours walking around the park-like setting, and had drinks on the terrace overlooking the garden. Fantastic. We also walked through every inch of the interior's public rooms...don't miss the church! The entrance to our room was tucked away under a staircase. When I first saw it I thought, "Oh no, this room is going to be the size of a closet". When we went in we were taken aback. It was massive, with a very comfortable bed, sitting area, bathroom and a huge jetted tub. And it was clean as a pin, too. Dinner in the castle's opulent Dining Room was exemplary. Service was friendly and good-humored, and the food was very, very good. My wife had the salmon and I had the beef; both were perfect. We did the 3 course meal for 65 euros each, and feel it was worth every penny. Breakfast the next morning was just as good. It was also in the Dining Room, and was included in the rate we paid. Hot food was ordered off the menu, and cool food (cereals, fruit, cold meats, etc.) were offered buffet style. One last thing: as opulent, grand, and over-the-top as Markree Castle is, the one thing it wasn't was pretentious. You don't have to break out your tux, or sequined cocktail dress; as long as you don't look like you just rolled out of bed, you should be fine. At dinner I wore a white dress shirt and a nice pair of green jeans; I felt perfectly comfortable. Out of the 12 nights we spent in Ireland, this was our favorite we stayed. It's more than just a bed to put your head on; it's an experience, and an amazing one at that.

My wife and I have stayed here before certainly on at least ten occasions but not in the last 2/3 years and it was certainly as good as we remembered it. They were busy and the car park was well full, the welcome was friendly and check-in took a few minutes slowed by my not remembering my car reg plate. Our 1st floor rooms I think superior rooms were comfortable and quite a stroll to breakfast but that's a bonus to get our steps in. The bar was lively, good-spirited clientele and staff were pleasant, despite being run off their feet, and we dined there both nights. The Guinness was good as was the local beer but I think the Japanese draft beer wasn't available as that would be my choice. The evening bar food was quite good, but I'm always disappointed at the lack of fish on the menu and it's not only in this hotel. I do recognise and do not attribute criticism of the hotel here as they are customer driven and sadly we aren't big fish eaters. I'm just happy to pay for great fish; crab, lobster, turbot, Dover sole. I had the seafood chowder and it was really good and sirloin with pepper sauce but there's no Colman's mustard and I really dislike the sauce in sachets not least that they are a nuisance to open but the quality is poorer and they contain more chemicals/additives than the brand names HP/Heinz. Breakfast was delightful and the breakfast room is wonderful. I do commend management on offering fish at breakfast as it was one of my few criticisms of this hotel over the years so thank you. The gripe I faced with my wife and our great friends was that the brekky room was too warm. As they say in the north and I thought it into myself - away on a that with ye, a bit of heat is great. There was one irritation though. There's only two EV chargers on site and they are low powered. They even look makeshift. I was lucky to get to use one on the first evening. I just went out to note my car registration and a chap shouted over as he was coming to take his car off charge. The manager told me of a new high powered charger about a quarter mile away (Applegreen) and she was right; it put in about 100 miles but it was not my idea of a holiday on a very wet windy Thursday night after 6pm and it wasn't pleasant loitering half an hour in the cold damp garage when my company were having drinks at the bar. I'm sure there are plans to extend EV facilities here and I think that management has sacrificed disabled parking to facilitate EV as there's little parking for less mobility able guests. On balance it just tips to five stars for the price paid but no Colmans mustard, low quality sauces in plastic pouches, little disabled parking and few EV chargers need some focus. We hope to return in the next year.

Apart from the group bookings there didn't appear to be any other guests. We had to pay up front at the check in desk (which was understandable considering groups seem to be their main business). The hotel location is perfect, right adjacent to the town centre and only 15mins from Strandhill. The decor in the rooms was slightly dated but they were clean and had everything we needed. The hotel reception was nice and comfortable and the bar and restaurant was more than adequate. I managed to get a spot in the car park which was handy because the on street parking is metered. In summary, this hotel is ideal for group bookings but a €43 per person per night it was a little bit too expensive considering there was 3 people to a room.
