Carlow Holidays from AU$994

Lovely hotel !! Staff was very friendly

The hotel was really nice. The staff was great, nice on-site restaurant and the room was clean and comfortable. The hotel is located in the center of Temple Bar, which is good and bad. The good is its centrally located and within walking distance to many of the city attractions. The bad is its noisy at night from the drunk bar patrons and there is a stench of urine

Buyer beware - rooms are minuscule. It was out last of 10 nights across Ireland and we had stellar hotel and castle experiences throughout this amazing country. We booked a contemporary king room that looked much larger than it is in reality. I suspect the photo is of an executive king room which was the only size larger than the contemporary king. The initial room we were placed in looked over an alley with pallets, trash bins and AC units | motors. We could not fit our bodies in the room and open the luggage at the same time. It was ridiculous. Smallest room I’ve ever been in across the EU, APAC and US. And, don’t even consider the possibility of getting a balcony room. They only have 2 in the hotel. The manager, named Sincor (I’m certain I am misspelling) moved us across the hall so we didn’t have trash and AC units to look at - and it had a small bump out window that gave room for a suitcase. He gave us 2 drinks at the bar (1 for each of us) and took $35.78 off the the $460 room.

Good location, spaceous room, helpful staff. We did find the hallways were noisy as was activity outside our room that was disruptive.

Beautiful hotel with impeccable service. Staff was very accomodating.
