Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a perfect view in Ireland for a 2-night stay, with rooms that could have been cleaner but were comfortable. The service was outstanding, especially from the lovely and attentive staff. Despite some noise issues, the location is stunning in a beautiful valley for a quiet weekend break. The dining experience was delightful with vegan options, and the facilities were well-equipped.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of good and not-so-great experiences. The rooms, despite having lovely views and being surrounded by mountains, had a bad view due to their location at the far end of the hotel. The hotel staff seemed understaffed as they were not readily available during breakfast or at the reception when needed.
The hotel offers comfortable and clean rooms, with some areas needing updating. The service is top-notch with very friendly and attentive staff. The location is scenic and perfect for nature lovers. Overall, a nice stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The lodges in the hotel provided a nice and comfortable stay with a lovely view of the mountains, great for the kids to hang out. The squeaky noise in the room when moving around at night was a bit of a drawback, though.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were lovely, and the food was gorgeous, even though it got a bit hot as the window opening was limited. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff, especially Caroline, who went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable. The location was amazing, handy for walks and dining in the bar. The dining experience was generally great, although there were some issues with food temperature. Overall, the hotel offers a decent enough experience with some minor drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was lovely! The rooms were nice and comfortable with a lovely view of the Gatee Mountains. It was quiet and ensured privacy with en suite bathrooms, which was great for a relaxing stay. The service was top-notch, with extremely helpful staff who even arranged for food to be kept for us in the hotel bar. The location was fabulous, nestled between woodland and a mountain range, ideal for exploring local attractions like castles. The dining experience was perfect, especially the evening meal with fish and chips paired with a pint of Guinness. Facilities were great too!
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were great, with two doubles and a twin, all with en-suites, but unfortunately, the cleanliness was not up to par, and I had to move rooms due to a smell issue. The hotel staff seemed to be missing during breakfast and at reception, which was a bit inconvenient.
The hotel is nestled in a stunning natural setting overlooking the Glen of Aherlow. The rooms are comfortable, though some could be cleaner, yet far from terrible. The service provided by the staff was exceptional, going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. The location is fabulous, offering a traditional country house experience not far from Tipperary. The dining options, while lovely, could benefit from more variety. Overall, a great value for the price paid.
