Hotel and restaurant were wonderful. Hotel staff was superb; we had left an item behind and staff mailed it safely to our home. Loved the location across from a walkable beach with tidepools.

Great location by the beach, close to airport and nice staff. Currently undergoing refurbishment in some rooms so workmen around. TV didnt work, bed needs an upgrade, limited options for restaurants.

Brandon, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice location near the beach, average room with a TV that had limited Chanels and advertising that was a nuisance to watch and could not avoid. Bar & Restaurant staff quite nice.
Eugene, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The rooms are quite small but the view of the sea makes up for it. Plus, who is spending time other than sleeping in such a beautiful town? The hotel was very clean and the receptionists were great with communication. The restaurant was very lively and served fantastic food. It is very close to bus stops that take you right into dublin and a grocery store. Had such a wonderful stay here, would recommend for the view and proximity to the beach itself!
SOPHIE, 2-night trip

Lovely stay
Our stay was very much about a family meet up We were made to feel very welcome . Check in was friendly and swift. Weather was sunny and warm which made the sea very welcoming Room a bit dated but comfortable . We will return for the third time Thank you all staff who served our very good breakfast .

4/10 Fair

The staff and dining was exceptional, but the rooms need work. Our bath was moldy and you can't move the blow drying and have to squat to use it
Kathryn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good choice outside the city, but not that far away. Great to walk along the beach in the morning.
Donal, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Property is very tired. Bathroom had faucet that did not turn off once you tried to turn it off. Beautiful location, fantastic for walking waterfront.
Carolyn, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice room except the shower didn’t drain so you were standing ankle deep in water. Staff was very nice. It was very expensive for what it was.
1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Location, location, location is about all this hotel has going for it! Directly across from beach and near other attractions, but very dated (ripped and torn carpet), loose bathrrom tiles, and aging facade.
Melissa, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff could've been friendlier when we arrived. They seemed distracted. The hotel in general was disappointing to be honest, very expensive given breakfast wasn't included. The hotel itself felt a little tired.
Marie, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Will stay again when in the area
Lovely staff. Pub was nice and had lots of seating. Seafood chowder for dinner was excellent. The room was big and had an ocean view and a lovely seating area looking out to it. Very comfortable bed.Only one tiny complaint. The toilet is jammed right up against the bathroom radiator so its difficult to sit on it properly as the radiator digs into your left leg. Other than that its perfect.
