Woodford Dolmen Hotel Carlow
8.5 (106 reviews)

Woodford Dolmen Hotel Carlow ★★★★

📍 Kilkenny Rd, Mortarstown Upper, Carlow

"A great hotel near Dublin. The staff at the reception are very friendly and accommodating. Check-in went very smoothly. The room is spacious, sometimes a little cold. But it is well furnished, plush and has everything you need. The bathroom is appropriately modern. The location and the surroundings are worth highlighting. It is beautiful in the garden with a river and an island. The hotel has lots of nice corners, sofas and places to hang out. At the moment everything is decorated for Christmas. Breakfast is OK, if a little too English. "

Talbot Hotel Carlow
8.4 (101 reviews)

Talbot Hotel Carlow ★★★★

📍 Graigue, Portlaoise Road, Carlow

"We recently stayed in the Talbot hotel in Carlow, the evening before attending a wedding in Ballykealy. When booking, I had requested a quiet room , at the end of the corridor if at all possible. A bonus would have been the top floor. The receptionist Tufah was so gracious and welcoming. I was delighted that the hotel had made a note of my request and accommodated me in a room as requested. I appreciate that this isn’t always possible so it was wonderful. As a particularly poor sleeper, it was important to me. I was so happy to be accommodated on the top floor! The room was spotless and spacious. I loved the amount of space in the bathroom, especially in terms of places to put toiletries etc. We dined in the bar and the food was delicious and plentiful.  Breakfast the next morning was delicious, with plenty of choice. I was really impressed with the hotel and left looking forward to a return stay two nights later. Our second stay didn’t disappoint.  Julius on reception assured me of a quiet room- and that is what we got. We arrived quite late in the evening and Martin, the night porter quickly and efficiently checked us in. Our room was a mirror image of the previous stay, and again I slept really well. In the early morning my husband visited the leisure centre and enjoyed his swim. He found the staff to be friendly and helpful. This is something that we really appreciated during our two brief stays- courteous and friendly staff who excel at their job. We both look forward to staying there again in the future. 😊"

Seven Oaks Hotel ★★★★
"There weren't many options in the town, so we just chose the most expensive one. If you're not too picky, it's a decent choice. It's within a few minutes' walk of restaurants and bars in the city center."
