Positive: It is in the heart of Birr and close to the castle. The restaurant has nice Irish food, and on Friday night is steak day. The room is cosy and if you need a TV, it is a modern one with a good size. The bathroom is enormous, completing the relaxing night.
Negative: I normally like to plan those visits close to the date, as I just need to drive, and the price was pretty high, almost double the normal price.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The staff were lovely and helpful. Lovely location.
Negative: No lift. I was on the top floor and had to climb many flights of stairs. I have had a recent operation. Hotel under renovation and I was not informed before my stay. 'Because of dust' I was woken at 8am by the fire alarm. 130 euro for a single room was not good value.
Summary: Thursday stay.

Positive: Friendly staff. Evening meal was good and plenty of choice at breakfast. Downstairs decor was welcoming.
Negative: The noise on arrival. Had to change rooms due to demolition work being carried out next door preventing me from resting after a long journey. The hotel bedrooms were tired and in need of some TLC
Summary: We were just having a one night stop over whilst touring Ireland and making our way to Dublin .
