Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally situated, allowing easy access to Cahir town center for a day trip and close proximity to the park around the castle. The rooms boast very comfortable beds and great facilities, though the absence of four-poster beds is a slight drawback. The service is attentive with one staff member available. Dining, while included, offers fresh-cracked eggs, enhancing the meal experience. The location offers convenience to the leisure center and is close to the motorway junction. Overall, the hotel provides a good value for money stay.
I was thrilled with my stay at the hotel. The room was cozy and had a fantastic view. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I enjoyed the lovely view from my window. The service was impeccable with one dedicated staff member attending to all my needs. The location was convenient, close to the motorway junction, and just a short trip to Cahir town centre for an enjoyable day out. The on-site dining featuring delicious cinnamon rolls was a delightful experience. Overall, a wonderful stay with clean and comfortable amenities.
This hotel offers a lovely view, with a four-poster bed in comfortable rooms featuring a fantastic view. The service from the staff was excellent, although I only interacted with one staff member. The location was convenient for a day trip to Cahir town centre and close to a motorway junction. The included Danish pastry for dining was a nice touch. The facilities were well-maintained and added to a pleasant stay overall.
This hotel is like a hidden gem with its cozy rooms and excellent service. It's nestled in a park around the castle, making it a unique and picturesque location. The dining experience was exceptional, offering delicious cuisine. The only downside is that it's a bit of a maze to navigate the halls.
