A lovely stay at Foyles
Pros:

I was in the area for work and had a very enjoyable 2 night stay in Foyles. I had dinner there both nights and breakfast two mornings. All the food and service was excellent and I would highly recommend eating here. The building is beautiful with many interesting objects and images on the walls. The location is perfect and so central. I had to park on the street but that was fine as I was away for work during the day and the parking is free overnight. I had a very comfortable stay and will definitely return!

Lovely Experience
Pros:

Fantastic hotel with lovely old style rooms, very helpful staff. Nice breakfast and great bar. Only think we had to park on the street as carpark was full but didn’t cost us much. Would definitely stay again. Thank you!
