- "Wonderful location, can walk to everything. Wonderful wonderful breakfast included, fantastic restaurant and live Irish music every night Staff wonderful. Would stay again for sure" - "From the moment we walked in the door we greeted with a very warm and friendly welcome. We were then greeted in our room with a lovely note and a piece of brownie each. It was a nice touch. We had dinner that night in Russell’s restaurant. What can I say food was amazing as were the staff. We had an early start the next day but we had breakfast before we left and it was as exceptional as dinner. Will definitely be recommending friends to stay here"
