Not a 4 star hotel by any stretch

Had the misfortune to book a 2 night stay here as I was on business ...while the bed was comfortable tge room was stifling hot, the TV is like something from the 70s with very limited channel choice, bathroom shower pressure is poor and don't even think of asking housekeeping to service your room as they just decide not too even though you put make up my room on your door! Why have hotels in ireland decided they don't need to service rooms anymore??? The hops bar was dire serviceon Tuesday night with team members o duty who were more interested in speaking to their friends however on Wednesday the team working were fab so credit to them! My advice is book somewhere else

Originally built in 1867, this charming town house has been tastefully renovated in a modern style, whilst retaining its historic charm, with stained glass windows and high coved ceilings. Once used as a Christian Brothers house, Scholars now provides all the facilities and features of modern accommodation. It occupies a privileged position in the centre of the historic town of Drogheda, County Louth, only 20 minutes from Dublin airport via the nearby M1 motorway.

A calm and restful night -- with GREAT restaurant

Reviewed By Fred B

After touring all day we stayed the night at Scholar's Townhouse -- a beautifully restored 1867 building - each room unique. And the hotel's restaurant served a meal we will always remember -- our family of five each order a separate entre and no one was disappointed. Hospitality and warmth from the staff made the stay even more memorable.

Our Wedding Day ❤️

Reviewed By J1059XVpaulined

We had our wedding on Friday 20th of May 2022. It was a wonderful experience. Which went way beyond what we imagined it would be. From our first meeting with Karen and Aogán until the moment we left Saturday afternoon we were treated to an experience that can only be described at 5-Star ? The ceramony was beautifully arranged to a high standard. Our 5 course meal was fantastic and served effortlessly by the hotel's brilliant staff, with a special thanks to Shirley who was one of the very special ladies who helped make our day beyond perfect. The rooms were clean comfortable and classy. It also has a very picturesque garden which is perfect for children to play and adult's to relax. It was without doubt a 5-Star experience would highly recommend for your wedding day, just as you want it ❤️ Robert & Pauline

Disappointing Experience

Reviewed By Emerfoloche

Attention!!! The swimming pool and Spa is closed. I spotted that on the website but unfortunately it was after I had booked the stay on booking.com. With two kids the reason we booked the hotel was for the pool so we were devo that it was closed. I had rang the hotel a few times enquiring about our stay at not once did anyone from reception tell me the pool was closed. We got there late on Saturday evening and the kids were starving so the plan was to eat at the hotel and get an early night. On arrival I enquired about booking in for food only to be told that the restaurant was closed indefinitely and they were only serving breakfast. Absolute nightmare, had to order in food which took and hour and arrived with half our order and cold. The next day we went out for the day (Funtasia water park and theme park are 7mins away). When I was leaving I asked to have our room cleaned. When we arrived back in the evening the food waste had been taken from the room and towels replaced bed made worse than my 7 year old makes his and no other type of tidy up was done. If I ask any mom the best thing about trips away is not having to do all the tidy up or to at least have your bed made. The next day we were up and out by 8:30am and as I left I asked house keeping if they could clean our room and I also said it to reception just in case. We got back to hotel at 6:30pm and the room had not been touched and when I rang reception they said house keeping was gone. We had no clean towels, toilet paper, water and our bins still full. On day two we needed an extra duvet and pillow for my sons bed and a duvet with no sheet/cover on it was sent up. He found a black hair on the duvet so the he wouldn’t let the blanket touch him without a sheet so I had to put a towel between him and the blanket to get him to feel more comfortable. When I asked the next day I was told by reception that they didn’t know where duvet covers were and gave us a bed sheet to put between him and the duvet. The breakfast is also dismal so don’t be expecting much. Really disappointed with the stay to be honest and just wanted to make sure others knew what to expect.

Comfortable beds, excellent breakfast, warm welcome. Plenty of parking. Definitely recommend. We were two couples arriving that day from the United States, and we were happy to have comfortable beds and friendly atmosphere. We really enjoyed full Irish breakfast to order.

I love this place

I stay here nearly every time I come to Ireland. Close to the airport and many points of interest. That aside, this hostel is clean and comfortable with kitchen equipped with anything you need. The owners are always improving on the place so the bathrooms and showers are new and very well done.

Fantastic breakfast, older furnishings

Reviewed By stork90

Peter had very good advice on local sights and restaurants. Breakfast was VERY tasty (loved the fresh berries!). I was initially taken aback by the lower end/older look of the furnishings, but the quality and quantity of the breakfast offerings really made up for that. Bed was very comfortable and the street was quiet. Everything is very clean, and they even freshened the room while we were out driving around.
