Unfortunately our room was cold in the evening and even though we let the staff know nothing was done. Our room keys didn't work the next morning but they were quickly repaced nlby the receptionist. Hotel is showing its age but is in a great location particularly when travelling by bus. Breakfast was good - at £149 for a twin room a bit expensive but I appreciate it was the Georgian Festival weekend.

The hotel was well located in the centre of Armagh. The staff were friendly and helpful. There was free secure parking on site. The room was adequate and the bed was comfortable.
Dislikes.
The hotel was very rundown and it needs a lot of money spent on it. It was advertised as having a lift but it was out of order which was a pain as we were on the 2nd floor. The towels supplied in the ensuite were on the small side and there were a number of cracked tiles.

Friendly but overwhelmed

Friendly welcome Hotel was very busy due to bus trip and we had a long wait for our meal. We were told there would be a delay of half an hour but it was an hour before we got our meal. We are sure service would be better when quiet but surely they could have prepared a couple of meals and slowed down the service to the bus party

Parking available in the back. No (working) lift and lots of stairs. The restaurant was full during mealtimes, which appeared to be mostly locals. The food was filling and the waitstaff were friendly. I did get questioned more than once by staff (same woman both times) as to what my business was on their property. On the one hand it was good they were making sure people belonged there but on the otherhand it was off-putting as I was treated like I was trespassing.

Stay here, it’s great

Lovely staff, large rooms, comfortable and clean beds, great atmosphere in a fantastic location within walking distance of all the sites. I’d happily stay there again, although the great atmosphere does mean it’s a bit dated, there are lots of stairs and the elevator wasn’t working when I was there. Food was great and lots of restaurants are close by, the breakfast will keep you going and there are vegetarian options. If you have not visited Armagh, seat of both the Catholic and Church of Ireland bishops, each with an amazing cathedral, not to mention the Armagh Observatory, it is a must visit location in beautiful Northern Ireland.

The whole hotel needs a makeover. Everything looks very “tired”; the lift has not worked since last summer although it’s top of their priority list (& we had 2 large suitcases to drag up 5 flights of stairs!!)
Two lights in our bedroom weren’t working.
It is not value for money👎

We arrived very early in the morning. They had us in our rm by 11:30 am. The lift is -I believe- permanently out of order. They gave us a rm on the third floor which my husband would have not been able to do. They then gave us a rm on the first floor. Considering how early we checked in they were extremely accommodating. I requested extra creamers in our rm for our tea and coffee and again they gave us with no issues. We had great breakfasts and a couple of great dinners. Warm, friendly atmosphere. The staff were fabulous. I will say if one has mobility issues it would not be a good choice. I would stay here again. Slightly dated but filled our needs completely.
