We really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again and recomend it to others.
Pros:

The room was nicely furnished in period furniture. I have rated the view from the widow as poor, but it didn't bother us. We ate in both The Forge Bar and Restaurant, which were both good, although I would of liked another potato option other than chips or mash.

A three star hotel reaching for four.
Pros:

The room was clean and modern, the hotel atmosphere was enjoyable.

Cons:

The rooms were noisey and not sufficiently sound proof from either the corridor or the windows, this was particularly an issue given late events/guests and external air conditioning units. The bed was extremely high and heavy tog for summer weather. The leisure facilities were not in the building and you have to walk to a sister venue.

Good but expensive.
Pros:

The room was lovely and clean and check-in was easy. I also had a request which I phoned ahead about and spoke with a lovely lady called Emma or Emily who dealt with my request brilliantly and went above and beyond. I really appreciated it.

Cons:

I thought that the price of the room at €189 was very expensive for one night. I also really feel that check-out should be 12pm as 11am is very early especially if attending a function at the hotel.
