Clonmacnoise

This property is beautiful, historic, and run by exceptionally professional and helpful people. Although the boardwalk it sits on was buzzing with music and activity much later than anticipated, we couldn't hear it from the room and had a fantastic night's sleep in Room 1, the Picture of Dorian Gray.

We tried for two days to have our shower unblocked, and our fridge never worked at all. Very frustrating.

This is one of those places where you seldom see staff. Everything can be done through your phone. Check in / check out / door locks / luggage storage can all be done without involving a human - which I didn't mind.Hotel was clean and very well situated. Rooms were a bit "thumpy." I kept hearing what sounded like furniture being moved around or sacks of potatoes being tossed around. Never figured out what the commotion was, but it was consistent. Overall a recommend.
