Front desk was wonderful woth suggestions for dining!

Room was great!

Hot tub was closed for the day/evening during our stay which was a bummer because we were looking forward to that unique option during our stay. The pool was still in operation, though.

While we were only here for two nights, the hotel was perfect for the end of our 5-week journey. It was convenient. It was not too touristy. The rooms were sufficiently big enough and clean. The staff were amazing from the hotel desk clerks to the waitresses to the restaurant/bar managers. We really felt special and spoiled.

Mistake made upon entry, was given the wrong room with less beds than paid for. Staff member (Dutch?) on the front desk was too busy upselling to notice. Lifts broken and noisy engineering. Pool isn’t free - have to pay a surcharge to buy a pool cap. Breakfast was exorbitant and bang average.

Upon 3:00 pm check in, we informed the receptionist that the hotel parking garage was full. She apologized and told us to park elsewhere. We prepaid for our parking and were not given a refund. We booked a room with a King bed and a Single bed. Instead we were given three Single beds. When we addressed this, they told us the hotel was sold out. Upon check out, I submitted a case to Orbitz who reached out to the hotel. The hotel admitted they gave us the wrong room setup but refused to give any refund or assistance. Very disappointing.

Good hotel just on the outskirts of downtown. Decent walk to almost everything.
Breakfast was overcooked most days. No ice machines is a pain. Had to go to the bar and get it by the glass. Lots of room in the room and the bathroom had lots of pressure

Lovely hotel and was well positioned for a short walk into the centre.
Great selection of hot and cold food for breakfast.
Friendly and attentive staff.
Highly recommend.

Nice hotel, but basically I paid £346 for a bed for 2nights, hotel done exactly what a hotel is supposed to do but I must thank the night manager for supplying a pizza at 3am, breakfast was a buffet, eat what you want, but quite bland, nothing to write home about.
Bed, duvet and pillows were comfy.
Just way to expensive for 2 nights, off season, in my opinion.

I stayed here for a couple of nights while travelling for work. Overall, it’s a good hotel — clean, comfortable, and in a convenient location. The check-in process was easy, with the option to check in prior to arrival and complete self check-in on site. A staff member was available and very helpful, which made for a smooth arrival experience.

The only real issue during my stay was with the restaurant. On entering, it wasn’t clear whether guests should wait to be seated, order at the bar, or just sit down. On the first night, I asked at the bar and was told to sit down, and while the food and overall experience were fine, I had to go up to pay my bill. The staff seemed friendly but were more focused on chatting with each other than on guests.

The second night was much worse. I walked in with no greeting, went to the bar to ask about ordering, and was told to sit down, but after waiting around 15 minutes with no acknowledgement, I had to go and ask to be served. The food tasted good, but the service really let it down. There seemed to be no structure or system in place — someone greeting and seating guests would make a big difference.

I also had to wait again to pay, eventually doing so at reception. I did receive an apology on checkout, which I appreciated, but overall the restaurant service needs improvement to match the otherwise high standards of the hotel.

Be aware of some issues

The room was not as advertised. There were no large windows or stylish bathroom as had been portrayed in the hotel’s photographs. The area around the hotel was very dirty with garbage. We stayed on a Friday and Saturday night and noise from the hotel bar reached us on the 9th floor. However, the hotel staff were friendly and accommodating and the hotel was well positioned to allow one to explore Limerick.

The hotel was lovely. Check out at 11am is too short in the morning. There’s no plugs by the bed either. I was in 1006 and no plugs near the beds. There over on the tea side of the bedroom. The staff were lovely and pleasant. My pillow covers was dirty and not cleaned properly.

Staff dont have a clue, restaurant and bar is chaotic. The hotel was full of non paying guests that push past you to get for free what you pay for. The lifts had people in them that clearly dont pay and are dressed inappropriately. Non paying guests walking around with water bottles and plates with nuggets & chips everywhere, constantly. The spa and gym was worse than my council health center. Homeless people outside. I would not stay here again and do not recommend it.

Enjoyable city-centre stay

Have stayed here several times and enjoyed my stay. Unfortunately they could not accommodate my 7 day visit, so I had to spend 2 days elsewhere (which I thoroughly enjoyed). Good pool/spa facilities (pool, whirlpool, steam room, sauna, gym). I stayed in a king room with a lovely view of the river, comfortable beds, kettle BUT as a Canadian I was surprised by no fridge nor facecloths. Food and service in the bar/restaurant was excellent. However, my big complaint was that the internet was not working on the 7th floor. Despite 3 complaints to several individuals, the problem was only rectified by my 4th complaint on the morning of my 4th day -- upon my return to my room on my 4th evening, I was finally able to access the internet in my room. It was always accessible in the lobby. It's handy city centre location means that I will probably stay there again. I also tried to stay there for 7 days in July this past summer (tried to book 4 months in advance regarding a family wedding), but was advised that they only book 14-day stays during that time ... very disappointing.

This was an excellent hotel in an excellent location. Being by the river in Limerick is always a nice setting, but this hotel was in a particularly good spot. Just a block from Dolan’s Pub, a great place to take in some traditional Irish pub fair and some great traditional Irish music. Also just a couple blocks down from O’Connell street, the main shopping area in Limerick. Also, super close the South’s pub, where they filmed Angela’s Ashes!
