The hotel is older and could use updating. Landscaping appears to be overgrown in some areas. Outside our window was an old grocery cart and a piece of fencing. Not sure why it was there. Parking was limited and there was no air conditioning. Showers were very small.

Stayed in many hotels and accommodations across England, Wales, and Ireland for two weeks. This was the only stay that didn’t meet my expectations. My mother would not use the shower in her room because it was dirty. The location is good and the staff was friendly. The restaurant on site was ok, but still one of the few times in my travels that the food wasn’t excellent.

This is a lovely hotel with really friendly staff who made us very welcome during our stay. It is an older building, which has its pros and cons - quirky and full of character, though the bathroom area in our room was on the small side. The location is lovely, very close to the waterfront with good views, but the town and its amenities are on the other side of quite a long bridge. Would recommend overall.

Disappointed

Hotel is old and dated rooms are dark and stuffy plus we were put at the back of the hotel looking at out the bins. Didn’t book with breakfast but went on the first morning and was n9 buffet , had to order it and it wasn’t great. I’ve stayed in a lot of hotels in Wexford and have to save it’s definitely the worse one. There was no music over the weekend either which is bad considering people have to go over the bridge. Very disappointed and won’t be back unless it’s updated and things change, I don’t recommend this hotel.

Over priced for quality of the room

We stayed in the hotel on a Saturday night and we booked at short notice so therefore we paid more than you would expect for a double room in this hotel at €150.
The hotel room was quite dated, the window latches didn't close properly and there was no plug in the sink so my husband could not shave. However the restaurant food and service were both very good.
It is also in a convenient location to walk across the bridge into the town so I think we would book this hotel again for that reason but it would need to be at a more reasonable price.

Room was comfortable and pleasant. On the Monday morning at about 9am, someone started drilling the party wall with the next room with a hammer drill but to be fair it didn't go on for too long.

On Sunday evening we ate in the restaurant then stayed there for a few drinks as the bar wasn't open. Good vegetarian dishes on the menu; food was good. Restaurant was busy - obviously popular.

On the Monday evening we got back around 9.30pm and the restaurant and bar were both closed. Had already eaten but would have had a couple of drinks. Odd for the facilities to close that early.

After my coach from Rosslare dropped me off in Redmond Square it took me around 10 minutes to cross the river and reach the hotel. So the location is very convenient. I found the hotel's staff very friendly and attentive. My room was clean and comfortable. I had a lovely meal in the dining area of the hotel and would have happily returned the following night but decided to try one of the recommended city centre restaurants. The only minor issues I had was that it would have been nice to have had more continental breakfast options, plus the WiFi connection in my room was not always reliable. Other than that I had a great stay.

A little gem

Ours was a last minute booking in this 3star hotel. It was excellent value for money, parking outside the door, a very warm welcome from all the staff not just front-of-house and a charming old style ambience glowed with the open fires made it all very appealing. THis,together with very tasty breakfast eaten while enjoying a glorious view of the sea from the dining room makes it a place to recommend. A nice ramble across the bridge in to the town centre and only a hens run to the beautiful beach. The room was warm, window able to open, piping hot water, very comfortable bed with plenty of clean towels and tea facilities made it a great base for our overnight visit to Wexford.

Hotel needs modernizing, my trip started being given a room that had a smell of smoking, the hotel person agreed that there was a smell might have been caused by a window left open and smoke coming from outside (balcony) below. I moved to a room which was ready cleaned etc. there was only a shower he explained I said fine I needed to get to a meeting so I just left my bag in. I didn't get back till 22.55, when I went into the room the light near the door didn't work, I switched on a bedside lamp and frightened another resident (!) spider with a very cosy web. So much for all the EXTRA cleaning that we were told was happening in the present circumstances. Finally I found no light over the sink so I could see myself as I shaved.......enough.

We had a recent 2night stay. The hotel has some nice planting around the courtyard but the interior does need modernisation, and feels a bit dated. Rooms were fine.

The evening food was a good standard, we were very happy with the dinners. The breakfast was not good for me, as the food was only lukewarm and the scrambled eggs totally overdone. My partner's breakfast was fine though. Perhaps I was just unlucky.

The covid restrictions meant a one way system in operation, which was good. Sadly I only saw one of the restaurant staff wearing a mask, that's the reason I'm giving the hotel an \"ok\" rather than \"good\" rating. Some staff seemed to operate as if to say \"what pandemic??\" We're all part of the solution to this. Hotel staff can remain convivial with masks, it's not an either/or. Please up your game here. Thanks.

This hotel has a nice ambience about it, with rooms facing the beautiful bay and a hearty Irish breakfast included. However, parking adjacent to the premises is very limited. Do not opt to pay in your own country's currency or you will find the exchange rate is geared to the hotel's advantage.
