Pros:

Went for a small wedding; great food on the night. Central location, free parking, and friendly staff.

Cons:

The courtyard dining area was cold. Breakfast was lackluster, with cool coffee and an unexceptional full Irish breakfast. It wasn't a place to relax and read the paper.more quick eat abd run.

Best hotel to create beautiful memories for eternity
Pros:

I had just flew in from South Africa for a friend's wedding and this hotel made everything so easy. The receptionist checked me in early so I could shower and get dressed for the ceremony. She was also thoughtful enough to place me right next to my friend’s rooms.
The rooms are spacious, with comfortable beds. Everything was sparkling clean and smelled so fresh. Location is perfect , right in the city centre and easy to walk anywhere. The park at the back with the beautiful fountain was a bonus. We took some of our photos there.
The wedding reception setup was flawless and the food was delicious. Everyone at our table enjoyed their meals. Service was perfect too because every staff member was attentive, warm, and genuinely friendly.
We all enjoyed our stay that we ended up extending 2 days longer and we already looking forward to our next visit,

Highly recommended , 5 star ⭐

Cons:

Nothing at all

Pros:

Lovely hotel very clean and staff very friendly..breakfast was excellent

Cons:

Although the mattress was very comfortable the bed was only a double need to upgrade to king-size.
Though no fault of the hotel was very noisy as someone outside in the car park reving his car till 3am..felt security should have gone out and told him to leave.
