Pros:

Location was right in heart of town and steps from dining and pubs. Breakfast was delicious and staff extremely cordial. Went above and beyond to help us locate a lost handbag the Malarkey’s Pub was a true find- excellent music and atmosphere.

All smiles all the time
Pros:

The hotel was great in all aspects. It is an older building but refined and built for the job. The staff where unfailingly helpful and the food and service in the integral Marconi restaurant was superb, for three night we ate there twice and nearly made it a third.

Only one night because otherwise the hotel was full!
Pros:

Perfect, family run hotel - warm and welcoming

Cons:

Nothing not to like - only gave it 9 rather than 10 because there's always something somewhere that can be improved! A return visit and it won't be the last.
