I had a very positive stay at Nox Hotel. It is extremely convenient for meetings, with a practical layout and a quiet, professional atmosphere. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Its location close to the city makes getting around easy, whether for work or leisure. I would happily stay here again and would recommend it to anyone visiting for business.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the floor in our room was wet, lot of noise in the night from other guests and shower/water going somewhere nearby. Breakfast had good selection but hot food was very greasy.

Perfect location to be able to walk to city and back (15-20 minutes) but not have to be in city centre. Great employees who are more than willing to accommodate your requests. Lovely common spaces to have a nightcap, afternoon bell or anything in between. Highly recommend.

Hospitality severely lacking. As a service industry person, I usually have a great repartee with fellow service people, and this was a shockingly cold and condescending reception. Out of the dozen hotels, resorts, and castles we stayed in throughout Ireland this was the only rotten apple
