Bed comfy, location superb, restaurant great, clean. Unexpected warm weather hit an no air-conditioning, is understandable, BUT window only opened an inch. SO Hot, it was like a sauna in our room. Horrid for sleeping, no ventilation. So we opened our door, held it open with a suitcase

Nice river view, very clean room, great Full Irish Breakfast. Only downside was the noise from chairs being moved around in the dining room below my room, also a refrigeration unit positioned on the outside of the building next to my room… it was running 24/7.

My wife and I enjoyed a riverside room. In addition to a relaxing view, it was incredibly quiet. When we stayed - end of May 2026 - there was a bit of a heat wave. The lack of air conditioning reared its ugly head. Ice, for cold drinks, could be had by taking glasses down to the bar but there were no ice machines on any of the floors. Aside from these two rather minor complaints, everything was clean and in good repair. The staff were all lovely.
