We did try to extend our stay but unfortunately they were booked up. Lovely place you have here guys!

    The property had everything we needed as a family of four. The pool is a great addition to keep the children occupied for some time. The room was large & comfortable. The bathroom for a family of 4 was slightly small but it wasn’t much of an issue for us. Parking on site was perfect with plenty of meal options around if you wanted to opt out of eating in the hotel. Breakfast was perfect & had pancakes too which was a bonus for the children!

    Breakfast was really good plenty of choice all nicely displayed continental breakfast and hot food was good too. Parking at hotel was so convenient. Location was central to what we had to do. It was our 2nd time staying and we would have no hesitation staying again or recommending to others. Thoroughly enjoyed our time here. We had the pleasure of using the pool as a family which we had great fun.

    Bed great, towels, coffee, biscuits good. Room clean with iron, hairdryer, emergency toothbrushes..... Food was good, spouse loved gym (reason for picking hotel). Quiet at night once the various very small children staying had gone to bed. It appeared very family friendly. Good lifts

    I've stayed in this hotel with friends and with family and it's great for both. The pool is a favourite with our kids and the staff are always lovely and so helpful. Our eldest child has additional needs and they are so interactive and understanding which makes our stay and experience so much easier. The chap on reception when we arrived was so nice and welcoming and the girls over the weekend so lovely from reception, to pool, to cleaning staff everyone is so nice. We love Portlaoise.

    Great hotel and really friendly staff.Perfect for families.Kids club and swimming pool. Stayed over the Easter holidays and when we returned to our room the first night the Easter bunny had left milk and chocolate eggs for the kids.I thought this was a lovely touch.Would highly recommend and will definitely stay again. Breakfast was fabulous and cooked to order so really fresh.
