Charming hotel, attentive staff, with free parking available and a good bar/lounge area that enhanced our stay with friendly service and a great atmosphere during breakfast.

We got earplugs from the front desk. Room was nice and very spacious, but only small window in small light well.
Hell noise from disco until 2:30

Beautiful hotel with very delicious breakfast (!) and own parking place. Relatively large with a nice bar, cafe and a very good (but somewhat expensive) restaurant (and spa - not tested). Location ideal for the sights...

A commendable fit for a brief pit stop in Kells (Meath) with attractive and competitive value for money. The bathroom in my room was surprisingly spacious, with a bit of extra comfort after a long day. Bring your own milk if you're thinking of ordering room service for breakfast.

A Perfect Getaway with Good Surprises
We enjoyed a relaxing night in a beautiful double room. The warm, friendly service during lunch and dinner. I highly recommend asking about gluten-free options. They cater excellently to dietary needs! Make sure to check if breakfast is included to avoid missing out!

The room was very modern.
Yes, let alone Kells is not a good town to go out in. The manager in the cafe was not very helpful and it was off putting. It doesn't take much to have manners to people that are spending there money in the hotel.
