Pros:

The doggie friendly rooms are brilliant and fab they lead our to the gardens. Food was really great both nights. Kids loved the swimming pool

Cons:

Breakfast wasn't included in the room price which was quite high for mid week. When eating breakfast the lady cleared the table but my husband was still eating his breakfast when the lady took his plate without asking. No big deal as we really enjoyed our stay. Booking.com advertised the hotel as doggie friendly but when we arrived our room wasn't doggie friendly and reception said booking.com don't advertise you have to specifically ask for a doggie friendly room. Was a bit of a panic as we were 3 hours from home with the dog but the hotel was amazing and moved us to a dog friendly room thankfully.

A short stay but the most enjoyable experience!
Pros:

We only stayed 1 night but we would have loved to stay more. So comfortable, spacious and fabulous food! We had dinner the day we arrived and the day we left and it was delicious. A fabulous breakfast too. We were upgraded to a suite for a family and it was so comfortable. We loved our stay and will definitely be back!

Cons:

Everything was excellent!

Pros:

Wir waren 2 Nächte im Hotel, um Galway zu erkunden. Schon die großzügige parkähnliche Einfahrt hat uns beeindruckt. Das Zimmer hat uns überzeugt, besonders das Bett war außergewöhlich. Das Hotel besitzt einen großen Parkplatz. Die Stadt ist fußläufig in ca. 15 Min. erreichbar.

Cons:

Das Zimmer enthielt nur eine Badewanne, der Zugang war aber sehr gut und die Stehfläche war eben.
