However, their Internet service is terrible and they only have one international news channel - Sky News. They made excuses for lack of consistent internet service but my impression was that this is not a new issue. So if you like to be informed about what is happening in the world, I recommend you choose other accommodations.

The chef is behind the counter working the customers & the good counter. Get a tray & select from the following; Four different meats, Roast Beef, Roast Turkey, Bacon & Lamb. Then they ask if you want all the vegetables!! Fresh in house made Carrots, Cabbage, mashed potatoes, green beans & peas. Three different types of gravy. It is a huge amount of wholesome food. Upon my research this is the best offering locally for lunch & a phenomenal deal. No need to eat for the rest of the day. A lot of people here some ordering takeaway. Water provided. They have a dessert menu that we could not even contemplate. Will definitely return & kudos to the staff for providing great customer service.

My husband was happy to find someone that knew how to make a decent Old Fashion cocktail! Our bathroom was fairly small, but functional enough. Like many in Europe, the bathroom does not have washcloths (only hand towels and bath towels). Our room was pretty spacious and our bed was very comfortable, something I can't say for every hotel on our tour. The room had a nice sized t.v. that had a Netflix option on it, another stand out feature from some of our other stays this trip. We had dinner one night in the hotel restaurant. The food portions were large and restaurant staff friendly. We really liked our chicken appetizer, but my hamburger lacked seasoning (tasted a bit bland---needed salt/pepper/garlic). The breakfast options were pretty usual for Europe and the servers were great with coming around to refill coffee. If staying in Limerick, I think this hotel is a really good option to consider.

This review is LONG overdue, but we felt like we hit the jackpot!! Let's start by saying, overall I…read moredon't think we had many expectations for the drive to Limerick. It was easy enough getting there from Dingle and not long of a drive. Our hotel was right on the "strand" (which is what they call rivers? in Ireland). We got incredibly lucky and got upgraded to an amazing suite when we checked in. We aren't sure if it is because it was only one night's stay, or because we used the Chase Sapphire Preferred card, but it was literally the biggest and nicest room my husband and I had EVER stayed in (August 2023). Unfortunately the hotel didn't offer laundry services for only one night, but the staff was very helpful in sharing some food recommendations for dinner and breakfast. Emily and Scott were especially helpful making sure we had everything we needed and making us feel very comfortable and welcomed into the city. The hotel itself is located in a perfect spot between being able to walk the main downtown streets and still close enough to the points-of-interests. It felt designed towards business related events and we really clean, nicely decorated and smelt good! In the lobby, they had a piano (which the F major key didn't work) but that's ok. Our junior suite was on the third floor, and was the corner room with a wrap around balcony giving 180°+ views of the city, including the King John's Castle. It was the only true king size bed we have had and even had 2 sinks! It was furnished beautifully and has perks like blankets for the glassed-in balcony and modern accent lighting. We really liked this hotel and was our favorite by far!!

Turns out having consistent amenities like shampoo, soap, and conditioner arent a constant normal thing in hotels. Nor is air conditioning. This hotel had both those things AND delicious hotel food. Maybe it's hard to find food to fit the budget of the included meals in a tour group, so Ive been eating some version of chicken and mash at every meal. This time I went rogue and paid for my own meal and was treated to a delicious braised beef dish and toffee pudding. Best meal I had on the whole trip was from a hotel and I still think about that braised beef. Oh yeah, the view is pretty good if you get a waterside view room. I unfortunately got a view of the roof, but I won't let that deter me from giving this place 5 stars.

The weekend we were there, the hotel was quite busy and was unable to find a spot to park the second night and ended up paying to park across the street. We didn't know until after we paid to park that, according to the front desk, the spots out front of the hotel that say 2 hour parking can be ignored and are able to be parked all night. Besides parking, everything else was great. Staff are very nice and we enjoyed our room. The view was also really nice of River Shannon. The hotel is a short walk to King John's castle, St. Mary's Cathedral, The Milk Market, and various bars and food. It's a great place to call home base for a few nights. I'd definitely stay again if visiting Limerick again.

We paid extra for the breakfast, and thought it was really worth it- a high class affair for breakfast with good food and service. The gym and pool are just OK- gym is decent but pool is small, hot tub was out of service. The parking is a little bit of a mess- there is valet, but you have to go in and find them. If you do the self park, you have to drive around to the shopping mall across the street and park in the 5th floor or higher, which can be a 10 minute excursion on its own. That being said, the hotel is in an excellent location in central Limerick, so hopefully you can just walk a lot of places. Would definitely stay here again!
