I was flying from Shannon and picked this hotel as it was ideally located just across the bus station where I was taking my bus to the airport. A friendly receptionist checked me in, gave me a map of Limerick city and showed me places to go (as I wanted to do a bit of exploring too) and got into... More

I stayed here in December as it's so close to Limerick bus station. It's certainly a no frills hotel. The room was small, basic and reasonably clean but the carpets were old and stained. There was no hot water in the bathroom when I went for a shower, the receptionist said there was a problem with the hot water that... More

Dropped my mother in law here last night. Booked it last week as its straight across from Limerick train/bus station. Receptionist was lovely when I walked in to book it and said payment would be the day after the stay (as per usual in every other hotel) and the place looked ok in daylight but I really didn't look around...

We were a bit skeptical when we entered this hotel - the room rates were quite cheap. It turned out to be a nice hotel to stay for the night. The staff was very helpful at the front desk and knowledgeable about the local area - restaurants/bars, etc. Breakfast the next day was just average and they were severely understaffed.... More

Stayed here in April with my daughter and returned again in August. Basic no frills hotel. Room is clean. SImilar to B&B accommodations. Pub downstairs is delightdful and we had our breakfasts and dinners there. Family run; friendly; saw same locals both times. It has a nice feel to it. Nothing fancy AT ALL but perfect in my opinion.

I am currently lying on a bed in the railway hotel. I haven't taken my clothes of as I am afraid to sleep in the bed, it's so dirty. I have already paid but I am considering either just driving home or sleeping in my car. That is how bad the room is! I have taken some photos which I... More

My hotel room was booked for 9.pm, my flight was delayed so rang the hotel of my late arrival, they were very understanding and said to ring the bell if they bar was closed. Finally arrived at 12.30am & was met by a very friendly manager/owner not quite sure, he offered me an on-suite (even though I found out the... More

I am in Limerick for a semester of school at UL. I flew in a few days early so I could spend some time getting familiar with the city. I was traveling alone and wanted to stay some where close to the bus station (I had 4 months of luggage) and I wanted to be somewhere safe, somewhere the staff... More
