Castlefrom the front rundown hotel inside.
Pros:

Nothing.

Cons:

From the front of the hotel , it looks like a castle , but the back of the hotel looks like a rundown hotel. The rooms were extremely small and severely outdated. The cost was exorbitant, way more than it was worth. Seventeen days in ireland the last two , we're at this hotel and by far the worst hotel of my seventeen day.

Great staff, fabulous location and fantastic value for money
Pros:

It was very central for exploring Sligo. Our apartment was a wee bit dated and they could do with updating curtains. The noise level was off the charts first night but when brought to front desk there was no repeat. A good stay but it’s a shame they can not invest in updating.

Cons:

The thin walls

Disappointed & over priced
Pros:

The hotel is dated. The room (a family suite) was disappointing.
The onsite restaurant was mediocre at best. Staff were sluggish and unaccommodating. I had an issue with the bill, being charged full price (most expensive dish on the menu) for a kids partial portion. Considering that I had spent a considerable amount to stay there and also spent quite a bit in the restaurant for the other drinks and dishes, there was no effort to make a concession. It wasn't the value of the price being charged, it was the lack of consideration from the manager in this instance. So disappointed. I will never be back at this hotel. I would advise any potential visitors to consider an alternative hotel. There are other hotels in Sligo that are more centrally located, more modern, and undoubtedly much better value.
