Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were beautiful, but the bed was uncomfortably hard. The staff, however, were very friendly and welcoming. Disappointingly, the room I booked online was not the one I received.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were fine, with a big bathroom and plenty of hot water, but they were quite small and stuffy. The cleanliness was top-notch, and I appreciated the helpful and friendly bar staff. However, the tiny TV high up on the wall with very few channels was a letdown.
I was quite pleased with my stay at the hotel. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable, providing everything needed for a relaxing stay. However, I did have to switch to a different room during my visit. The service, particularly from Duty Manager Laurie, was a highlight, although the hotel didn't offer half portions as requested. The location was convenient, especially for exploring Sligo, though it could use a fresh update. The dining experience offered a good selection, despite missing some traditional items. Overall, it was a satisfactory stay but had room for improvement in certain areas.
The hotel offers a friendly atmosphere and excellent food. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but they are quite dated. The location is charming but in need of renovations. The dining experience is satisfying, with a good variety of choices.
The hotel is conveniently located close to Sligo Town with ample car parking. The rooms were clean, affordable, and provided everything needed for a comfortable night's sleep. The service was attentive and helpful, with friendly staff offering guidance and addressing any concerns. While the dining options were not highly recommended, the surrounding area offered alternative choices. Overall, a great value for the price.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was lovely, large, and clean, with all the amenities I needed. The breakfast was hot, plentiful, and delicious. The proximity to the train and bus stations made our travels very convenient. The only downside was the price not including breakfast, and the room being a bit close to the door.
The hotel is in a perfect spot, excellent for exploring Sligo, especially if arriving by bus or train. The rooms were clean and cozy, with a nice touch of complimentary water and Tayto crisps upon arrival. The service was exceptional, from the welcoming bar staff to the attentive manager ensuring a wonderful stay. The dining experience was decent, although some improvements in food quality could enhance the overall experience. The location is a standout feature being right beside both the bus and train station and a short walk to the town center.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were overall comfortable and restful, but some felt they were a bit dark and dated. Being directly over the night club or party room could be a drawback for light sleepers. The service was found to be really helpful and kind by many, although during Wednesday night there was a large group in the hotel causing some disturbance. The location was praised, especially for its easy access to Sligo City Centre and St Josephs hospital, but being distended from the city center might not suit everyone. The dining experience seemed to be well organized and safe, but some noise from activities like kids' swimming lessons might cause inconvenience. Overall, a mixed experience with some standout positives and negatives.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room was clean and tidy but a bit cold, with some noise from the corridor. Parking was a challenge. The staff was a mix of surly and extremely helpful. The location was convenient but had some disruptions. The dining options were varied with some hits and misses. Overall, it was a decent experience with room for improvement.
