Loved the historic feel to the building and room. Breakfast was a delicious traditional Irish breakfast. Staff were very friendly and helpful. They accommodated an early check in and kindly held our bags before our departure. Would definitely stay here again.

Hotel is well located close to the main sites, and the room was very good. The old part of the hotel has many stairs and hallways that can be a challenge when trying to find where you want to go, but that part of the hotel, plus the dining room, have a lot of old world charm. Everybody was friendly and helpful, the breakfast was great, and free parking was nice.
