Fabulous find - would definitely stay again.
Pros:

It was the location for an appointment that necessitated the booking. What a gem of a place. The staff - particularly those on reception and at breakfast. Efficient, capable, professional and welcoming. Excellent food - best chicken wings I’ve ever eaten!!

Cons:

My only slight criticism was that the staff on duty in the bar area during the evening were not as efficient or attentive as in the other areas of the hotel. The food however was delicious.

Very good stay in the hotel but Limerick itself needs a major amount of work to clean it up and brin
Pros:

Had a large room on the 5th floor that was perfect for our needs. Breakfast was good but on the expensive side. The location was fairly good. In a quiet area and within 15 minutes walk to the centre of Limerick,

Cons:

More parking spaces for the hotel. They only have 40 on a first come first serve basis and this was one reason we traveled down by car. I did miss the car after as it would have given me more choices to visit attractions from the hotel.

Lovely hotel in walking distance to everything you need to see in Limerick.
Pros:

Best shower (water pressure) for our trip! Great breakfast selection and underground parking (we were there at a relatively quiet time, and I can imagine it sometimes get filled up). It's a great location for walking around Limerick and seeing the historic and other sites.

Cons:

No issues with anything.
