    friendly service

    Recommend it for solo adventures

    The food was fantastic, I got a steak on the stone and it was the real deal, just had a little trouble with it sticking but it added a challenge I guess. The staff were real friendly, made me feel at home, like they were looking out for me, especially when I misordered breakfast but they got it sorted out quickly.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap but definitely reasonable for what you get.

    spacious bathroom

    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, offering 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 Delightful Surprises

    We enjoyed a relaxing night in a deluxe double room. The warm, friendly service during lunch and dinner made our stay special. 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!

    plentiful breakfast
    attentive staff

    Having stayed for 3 nights in a Standard Triple Room, I enjoyed the comfortable beds and daily fresh towels. The breakfast at Cafe Theresa was plentiful, with attentive staff taking our drink orders. Great evening meals filled our tummy. Perfect access to the bus for Dublin airport. 🌟

    charming ambiance
    tasty food
    cooked breakfast
    distracting noise
    entertainment noise

    The stay was particularly memorable due to the charming ambiance and the impressive dining experience. I enjoyed the cooked breakfast, which was a highlight of my morning, and the atmosphere in the lounge during dinner was delightful, with tasty food that complemented the old-fashioned charm of the venue. the noise from the entertainment nearby was a bit distracting at times, which detracted from the overall relaxation of the visit.

    Cozy stay with tasty eats

    We had a comfy twin room with a great fan to cool us down. Breakfast was awesomely diverse, with yummy gluten-free muffins. The Keltic bar next door served mouthwatering food, especially the locally made gin! Only thing was, we heard some noise from the lift nearby, which was a bit distracting during the night.

    limited entertainment options
    average location

    Exceptional service from the staff made our stay memorable, especially the quick delivery of food at the bar. The room was spacious and equipped with essential amenities, ensuring a comfortable experience. While the location is convenient, noise from nearby events at times detracted from the peaceful atmosphere overall. The home-made bread served at breakfast was a delightful touch, enhancing the dining experience significantly.

    The standard triple room felt outdated, lacking a bedside plug and air conditioning. I had an unfortunate view of a dirty flat roof. During breakfast, service seemed disorganized. basic items like butter or milk weren't readily available, and my order took too long to arrive. I noticed the cleanliness of some tableware wasn't up to par considering previous visits. the dining experience wasn't as smooth as expected, especially compared to the hotel's other offerings.
