Fantastic service to and from Dublin. Great drop off in Nassau street. Very central and pick up in Abbey street is super. Ideal for tourists who would like to stay in a more rural area and visit dublin for twenty euro return. Carrickmacross is only a little more than an hour away and a great place to see and stay but not having to pay Dublin prices

in here on a Saturday night, it was fairly busy and hard to find a seat. there was a great choice of cocktails with waiters taken your orders and bringing back your drinks so no worries carrying glasses

A few rooms at the entrance to the pool area. Np ambiance or atmosphere, you'd be better off spending your money in a proper spa. I had an all body exfoliation, there was nothing more than applying some generic exfoliator (no massaging it in, no trying to actually exfoliate any skin etc). A few minutes in a generic room with a broken CD player then a trip to the showers used by the leisure centre with broken doors and dirty floors etc, and back for some generic moisturiser which did nothing for my skin. The entire treatment lasted about 25 minutes of which I spent about 10 in the bed with a far too chatty though friendly girl and the time included the shower, getting dressed and undressed etc. Terrible value for money. Don't waste your money. I think the hotel called the area 'treatment rooms' which is probably more accurate though the 'treatment' was poor.

I've got mouldy sandwiches under my bed that are older than most of the kids that get in here. The resident Dj seems to only like to play whatever's on the latest 'Now' cd at full volume and nothing else. The pints usually taste like rusty sand as well
