Overpriced and unfriendly. The rooms are not worth the €200 per night (per person) price tag. There wasn’t a bottle of water or teabag in the rooms, and when we queried this we were told it’s for “environmental reasons”, even though there are Nespresso machines in the rooms, which are about as un-environmentally-friendly as it gets. They took money from my card without telling me and were rude and unhelpful when I asked about it. They don’t take cancellations, even though I tried to cancel a second night with more than 24 hours notice. The decor is cheap and the bar would be well placed down the back streets of Reno, Nevada. I will never stay here again.

Stayed here for two nights recently, was very happy with everything on offer. Staff were very helpful and friendly in all parts of the hotel. We had dinner in bar 62 on one of the nights, food was superb with a wide selection on the menu. The breakfast in Hacketts restaurant was also excellent. The grounds of the hotel are beautifully maintained and would make an ideal wedding venue. Would highly recommend staying here.

Very disappointing hotel in terms of hospitality and very bad experience with management and ownership. We were using our hands and plates to serve food from platters. I requested tongs on several occasions from staff and management and I came to the conclusion that there was no tongs available in hotel. I contacted management next day and wrote to managing director and never received any reply. Very disappointed with this hotel and I will never be returning again.

We had a christening in one of the private rooms upstairs on the 6th of April. Sabina managed our booking and pulled out all the stops. She was amazing to deal with and made organising the day so easy. On the day the room was decorated beautifully. Two girls Ciara and Ava looked after us they never left the room all day they stayed with us and got whatever we wanted. The food was amazing everyone loved it. We could play our own Spotify list on the speakers which created a lovely atmosphere. There was no rush on us to leave the room at any stage. Would highly recommend for a private function of any kind. We were overall so happy we choose to celebrate the special day in this hotel.
