The room was clean, however no staff and if you need anything.. well good luck! Also no WiFi and the A/C is a portable unit. Coffee maker didn’t work. Price was very high for one night. Also they only gave us 1 key. Won’t book again.

Had a wonderful time while staying at the Abbeygate Hotel. We almost got stuck in Ireland, and we had planned to return and stay at the Abbeygate, as it was our favorite city, and we were pleased with the accommodations.

Very nice hotel but a little noisy at night

The room was very nice and clean. It was in a great location to many of the tourist sites. Room was noisy at night even with the windows closed. I had to use the ear plugs you supplied on the desk. Elevator was out of service the last 2 days of our stay.
