The cabin was cool and compact. It sloped down towards the porthole which was a bit disconcerting. The staff were welcoming and helpful. The food was par excellence.

The Fingal is a real gem, such a different hotel experience, it’s like being swept back to the days of the titanic, without the fear of an iceberg ! The staff were amazing, and really went out of their way to accommodate us, despite us being late for dinner. Can’t thank the hotel team enough it was an amazing experience.
