Pros:

The hotel was very central with free parking. It was very clean and warm and the staff were nice. Carrick on shannon is definitely worth visiting. However breakfast was not great, it was expensive with only 1 sausage with the fry. The lady who served us brought over a small pot of coffee and filled my small cup and left with it.

Short stay OK! Staff nice ! Paid 90 for night def wouldn't pay any more !
Pros:

Staff are friendly.Breakfast beautiful. Location perfect .

Cons:

Hotel really dated ! Our room hasn't been changed for like 15 + years as this is how long I have being visiting here ! Shower head had to be held in place .Really bad smell of sewage on entering room ,a small smell of damp also !! Tbh just really old and uninviting.
Saying all that I will stay again as I have for so many years now ! Just would be nice for a small face-lift!
