It has all changed now! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suzanne 31 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent service - staff are excellent - some areas in need of slight update and face lift ##### Suzanne Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sheila 5 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Children! The hotel was faultless. However, our stay was marred by aot of ill behaved children whose parents didn't give the slightest bit of consideration to other peoples enjoyment. Screaming and running around the restaurant etc. I would love to come back here, but only if it was an adults only venue ##### Sheila Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 30 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good location, pleasant stay! The walls were paper thin and could hear next door all night. The room was comfortable though and the breakfast was very tasty with good gluten free options. There was a nice walk by the hotel to a little beach. It is walkable into Arklow town too which was good. I was very surprised that the pool only opens at 9am on a Sunday, too late to get a swim in before breakfast. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Brian 16 Aug 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Depends on when A couple of things I would say about this hotel. The lobby area and spa are nice. The restaurant has a limited menu but our dinner was very good. The rooms themselves are on the small side and do not have air conditioning or fans. We were visiting during a warmer time in August and with a west facing room was uncomfortable. In terms of the area you are about a 15 minute walk from bars and about 10 from Dunnes and grocery store. Don't bother trying to walk to the beach. ##### Brian Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cornelius 7 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff at reception.
