The Temple Gate hotel is a gem in Ennis, our room was very large and beautifully appointed. All of the shops and dining in the town centre were right there, very happy with our stay!
This was property and location were wonderful! I would highly recommend this hotel! Plus, you are in such a wonderful area to see so many attractions!!!
We enjoyed our stay at the Temple Gate hotel. The location is great for exploring Ennis and the surrounding area. Rooms are clean, the check-in process was easy. The staff is very friendly.
We only stayed one night on our way to Shannon airport. Location was great - in the centre of town. Staff were friendly, room was clean and comfortable
Hotel was very nice with history to it. We enjoyed the bar and the breakfast spread in the morning. Easy to park in the lot by the hotel. Our room was a bit plain, but we were visiting Cliffs of Moher and did not mind a more simple room.
All staff were friendly, professional and did everything they could to make our stay wonderful. It is also the perfect location to explore Ennis. Room was clean and comfortable. Can’t think of anything that could have been better.
Great hotel. The staff was fantastic very warm and welcoming. Laundry service was a bit expensive, but very well worth it. Breakfast was great and we loved the dinner options too. Wonderful servers and delicious meals. Very convenient to shopping and the train station.
Lovely hotel, seemed to cater for everyone, from couples on a short stay to wedding parties. Very comfortable hotel in a very convenient location for Ennis town centre and the surrounding area. Nice entrance and reception, nice lounges and bar and the breakfast was huge and sets you up for the day. Free parking directly outside. Would recommend and will return.
Very friendly staff. We arrived early morning after an overnight flight. They were kind enough to find an available room and let us check-in by 9:30 for a much needed nap. Comfortable rooms, great location. Only downside is that the bathtubs are high sided making it a bit tricky to get in and out of for a shower.
