Amazing welcome on arrival, cookies and strawberries in the suite as a welcome treat. Exceptionally friendly staff in the bistro with a great choice of dishes again exceptional service we really enjoyed our stay.
We were just passing through on the way to Doonbeg, so it was a good spot to jump back on the highway. Really nice property and the sauna/steam room were amazing after a chilly day on the course. Food was great and the staff were super friendly. Would stay here again.
Not my favorite place we stayed but perfectly fine. Busy and seem to be popular., we just wanted something a bit less like a hotel..and bathroom was dated. But again it was perfectly fine.
Were upgraded to the bridal suite upon arrival. Room was spacious and comfortable. Tv is a smart tv and allows use of Netflix, etc. breakfast was complimentary and delicious. Staff very friendly and accommodating and even delivered a small mini fridge to the room for our stay.
Had a wonderful stay here. Couldn't fault a single thing. Staff all so nice and want your stay to be memorable. Night porter had to leave me out late to collect my daughter and knew I'd be back in a half hour and was even watching out for us offering us tea or coffee. The manager brought our breakfast to the room in the morning and the reception was lovely along with the Spa staff. 100%. We will be back.
We loved the room and the staff were topnotch. Didn't like that there wasn't air conditioning and/or fans for each room. It was warm in the room.
Having said that, after being told there weren't any fans available for our use in the room, a staff member (Harry, I believe was his name), offered to go to his house and brought us a fan from his home that we used for 2 days during our stay. Topnotch! Thank you again Harry!
Wonderful breakfast.
Had Aoife for my massage at the spa and was wonderful .
Some redecoration work happening on ground floor which did not impact our stay.
Breakfast was 7-10, we kindly got a reminder call at 0930 that breakfast finishes at 10 - without it we would have missed breakfast.
Nice efficient Brasserie - clearly popular with locals , so am glad we booked a table.
Reception very helpful .
One of our party decided to stay extra night , and negotiated a good rate.
Grounds lovely to walk about.
Outdoor hot tubs a bonus .
Thank you very much
