Lovely Hotel
Pros:

I came for the week with a coach tour & it was a lovely hotel. The rooms were spacious & spotlessly clean.

All the staff were friendly & couldn’t do enough for you. The Breakfast staff did not stop, from making sure there was enough tea/coffee on table to asking if anyone wanted any scrambled eggs, porridge or Irish breakfast.

Definitely recommend & would stay again

Pros:

Loved it! Great location, lovely staff, super clean. I was so thankful for the restaurant there also because it was raining / so windy during visit that it was so nice to eat a good meal on site and be able to just rest and read my book without having to run out and walk places in the cold.

I’m traveling for several weeks for work, so it was also great to have access to the on site gym as well. PLUS FREE PARKING AND WIFI.

Outstanding Group Stay at the Absolute Hotel Limerick
Pros:

Theatre Trips Essex took 51 guests to the Absolute Hotel, Limerick 30 May to 5 June. We all enjoyed our stay and received outstanding service from everyone. The room, restaurant, housekeeping and front desk and porterage were all excellent and we could park our 57 seat coach opposite the front door. From booking to checkout, it was a flawless experience. Thank you to all the staff at the hotel.
