4 of us stayed while attending race meeting in town. Rooms were spotless and beds were very comfortable with nice linen. Staff couldn't be nicer or more helpful. We especially enjoyed our freshly cooked breakfast. Well done to all
We attended a family gathering after an Anniversary Mass at the Gleeson family's restaurant. The hospitality was incredible and made us feel right at home. We were welcomed warmly into a cozy room with a glowing fire. The staff promptly served us generous pots of tea, fresh sandwiches, and a variety of finger foods. We were then treated to delicious Mince Pies and cream. Thank you, Mary, for a wonderful experience.
We had a wonderful dining experience with our family. The menu was excellent with a wide selection at a reasonable price, especially considering the current circumstances. The staff was very attentive. Overall, we had a very enjoyable Sunday lunch.
Lovely staff here, truly. My service dog was very welcome, they had to check in the restaurant but it was no problem at all in the end. The staff was super sweet to her as well. Our room was comfortable and clean. For breakfast there's a menu to choose from. I had full irish on the first morning which was very tasty. On the second morning I had pancakes which were fluffy and not too sweet. Coffee and tea in the room which was great as well. Thanks for the lovely stay.
My first recommendation is that, if you want to book, do so directly with Gleeson 's, because the price I paid through booking.com was almost twice what Gleeson 's charges direct. This family-run establishment is served by really helpful and mostly friendly employees. As other reviews say, the breakfast is quite good, and I highly recommend trying their homemade scones if you have any interest. However, there are quite a few downsides. I heard every single person who walked by my door or up or down the stairs which were right by my room. I also heard everything from the rooms on either side, because it seems the walls are paper thin. Additionally, the rooms are quite dated and less in a charming way, and more in a 'wow, this is old and stained ' kind of way (see pictures of chair and carpet). So, the breakfast and location are good and the staff is really nice, but the room was loud and pretty dingy. Also keep in mind that when they say 'double bed, ' they mean it. As two adults used to a queen, neither got much sleep.
