Check in with Pol was easy and made even simpler when he helped us extend our stay for an additional day. The hotel was conveniently located and provided a great parking rate in an underground garage at their location. Many places to go see within walking distance as well as pubs. Imagine that in Ireland. So to summarize: great staff, food & location. Don’t overlook this place if you’re looking for lodging in Sligo.

The cleaning staff at this hotel is top tier! From reception to check out we were treated so well. We were there for two nights during a major storm and enjoyed all the facilities from the impressive formal dining to casual food in the cafe/pub. We will definitely be back! Thank you
