The staff were SO friendly n helpful that I found it an expensive but most relaxing stay. Esp Erin R
Pros:

I wd have liked REAL eggs scrambled.
The fresh fruit n natural yogurt was lovely.
The rashers were superb.

Cons:

The fruit n cereals bowls had not been washed properly. Or had not been rinsed in clean water.
You cd both feel, and see on some bowls, the food debris. I removed several bowls n showed this to a dining room staff member.

Great location
Pros:

The 2 male receptionists working the night we arrived were very friendly and helpful. The location is really good, central and easy to walk around Sligo, very close to the Abbey. The room was comfortable and spacious.

Cons:

Nothing, although the parking is very limited (as they say, first come basis). There is parking around for 2€/24h.

Een top hotel
Pros:

Heel vriendelijke medewerkers in de receptie en in de pub. We hadden een mooie kamer met uitzicht op de rivier. Sligo is een leuke plaats en er valt in de stad en de omgeving veel te zien. We aten in de pub en dat was prima. Het zelfde geldt voor het geweldige ontbijt.

Cons:

Pros:

Ein sehr tolles Hotel mit grosszügigen Zimmern. Mit ein wenig Glück bekommt man ein Zimmer mit Blick auf den Fluss. Sehr schön. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Das Frühstück ist ausgezeichnet. Ich war zum zweiten Mal da und würde immer wieder da buchen.

Cons:

Der Parkplatz direkt beim Hotel ist sehr klein und meist besetzt. Dann muss man ein bisschen weiter weg parken.

Not really convincing
Pros:

Our first stop on our tour of Ireland to Dublin was Sligo. We chose the Riverside Hotel. We had booked a double room with a river view, including breakfast, for one night (2–3 September 26).

Positives
The hotel staff were friendly and helpful
The hotel’s location, just a few minutes’ walk from the centre

Cons:

Negative
The rooms aren’t particularly spacious
Breakfast is rather meagre
Cleanliness could be better
The car park is small (no bookings accepted), so you have to pay to park on the street.

Not really worth recommending
