The Snug Townhouse

8/10 Good

"Room was clean. Fresh towels every day. Great location. Met all of our needs. Not a great choice if you need a lot of space. We were able to slide our luggage under the bed, which made it very workable. All in all we had a great stay."

Eyre Square Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very clean room and timely room service. Front staff were helpful in discounting parking which is directly behind the hotel. Bathroom door is frosted glass so if the bathroom light is on, the whole room gets lit up. Finishings were modern and sleek compared to many other hotels in the area."

The Ardilaun Hotel
