Categories

Cleanliness
8
Generally praised as exceptionally clean and spotless in multiple reviews, but a few comments note small housekeeping issues (paint peeling, missing tiles, bathrobe with lipstick, grim lobby toilet) that lower the score slightly.
Service
9.3
Staff repeatedly described as exceptional, friendly and very helpful (mentions of reception, housekeeping and specific staff like Catherine and Zina), supporting a strong service rating.
Location
9.2
Consistently highlighted as excellent — convenient to town, motorway access, and lovely gardens; described as a peaceful, relaxing environment ideal for exploring the area.
Room Quality
8.4
Rooms and beds frequently described as spacious and very comfortable, but recurring issues include hot rooms, no air conditioning and awkwardly placed fixed toiletries or lack of a flexible shower head.
Amenities
8.1
Gym and pool facilities are well equipped and praised, but complaints about children's lessons limiting pool use and some pool-area maintenance (missing tiles, mould) temper the score.
Value for Money
8.8
Seen as reasonably priced for midweek stays and good value given the quality of rooms, service and grounds — overall positive comments about pricing and experience.
Food and Beverage
9
Meals and breakfast repeatedly described as exceptional and top class, though one mention noted the Saddlers Bar menu was quite limited leading guests to eat out.
Overall Experience
8.8
Many guests describe lovely stays, would return and call it one of the best hotels they've stayed in; minor issues (heat in rooms, small maintenance/cleaning details, occasional pool crowding) slightly reduce the perfect score.

Amazing customer service and good quality!
Pros:

Anne, Pauline and Ben in the restaurant remembered us from last year and were friendly and amazing with their customer service. The food was excellent and loved the fire on in the lounge.

Cons:

Due to Anne, Pauline and Ben setting the customer service standards , some of the other waiting staff fell below par which is a shame, but was still ok.

Comfortable Stay !
Pros:

- Room was comfortable.
- Breakfast and evening meal were very good.
- Car park is large and there were plenty of parking spaces.
- Staff were helpful and friendly.

Cons:

- The fan in the bathroom was very noisy.
- The door stopper on the bathroom floor was sharp, causing pain in my foot when I stepped on it.
- The heating was on during the middle of the night (not sure what time as I was in bed half asleep), however, the heating was off at 9:00 later that morning which was not ideal for a shower.
- There is a green recycle bin attached to the rubbish bins in the rooms. I discovered the cleaning staff were throwing the contents of the recycle bins into the general waste bins. WHY ???
It would appear that the hotel is trying to give an impression of being environmentally friendly, however, this is not true in this case.

Lovely stay disappointing breakfast
Pros:

Lovely staff , lovely dinner, Cosy room

Cons:

Out bedroom 121 has a door into 120 obviously locked but they complained about the noise of our tv which was only up at 7
Recommend better sound proofing as this was not loud lovely staff came up and asked us to lower which we did but then we could barely hear it


Breakfast cereal and porridge very good
Hot breakfast poor scrambled eggs tasteless , poor quality bacon, pudding no Colour, no homemade brown bread not the usual keaden standard which we have enjoyed many times

Pros:

Free parking /big rooms/ very committed life guard. Lovely fluffy towels at pool. Swimming togs dryer in pool area. Dinner was excellent. Drinks lovely.

Cons:

No toiletries in swimming pool. Sauna not working well/ people staying for over 15 minutes in jacuzzi- sitting on the edge when bubbles stopped and light red and sat in again when light green. So difficult to get your turn. Lot of hair in showers and wet floors in women's changing area.

A home away from home
Pros:

The easiness of location, the old style mahogony furniture, the food, the comfortable surroundings and the friendly staff. A particular shout out to Nicole in the Bayleaf Restaurant. She was so sprightly, checked were we ok. Her whole demeanour 👍👌😁. All the restaurant staff were very pleasant.

Cons:

Was nothing to to report. Top class 💯

The Keadeen in Kildare--Close to everything!
Pros:

The staff was extremely helpful in all areas. The breakfast was very good, everything at the correct temperature, refilled promptly and the tables were bussed regularly. We had lunch and dinner at the restaurant, both meals were very good, the service was 5 star. We would definitely return to The Keadeen.

Cons:

Nothing
