Great location downtown Athlone, handy for eating out and seeing the beautiful Shannon. The premises was welcoming and very typical Irish pub atmosphere. The rooms were basic but spotless, ideal for a group or big family needing a short and convenient stay.

We loved the Church of St.
We loved the Church of St. Peter and Paul - they feature vivid and colourful stained glass windows made by Harry Clarke. We were in there for way longer than we anticipated, the art was so detailed and interesting. We found handy parking round the back of the castle, but it was February and was quiet so no problems there.

It was a very friendly town, with many pubs, cafe's and restaurants.
Sean's Bar had a very good live music duo. We ate at The Fatted Cow, which served excellant food in a professional and friendly atmosphere.The town itself was easy to get around with good transport links to other towns and cities. It was a good place to be based at.

Front desk customer service was absolutely brilliant.
Front desk customer service was absolutely brilliant. THANKS to Eric the man is a legend. Good staff everywhere. Room was little hot but that was the weather we were having. ROOM was excellent Breakfast and a swim in the pool to it off .Thank-you one and all
The location and privacy of the room was more than adequate for the time that I had spent in the room. The location was similar to where I had stayed in the last time that I had been in Athlone, and is very central to the town. While my standards for walkability are wildly different than most people's (I wouldn't decline a walking trip to Roscommon, for example), I felt like the town as a whole had a very accessible vibe and the location of this hotel was very conducive to that ideal.
I cannot say enough good things about this beautiful property. Our room was spacious with a very comfortable bed. The hosts were very friendly, and amazing cooks. This was a great way to end our tour of the many B & B’s we stayed at during our travels through Ireland. Sean’s Bar was within walking distance and the hosts provided great dinner recommendations. This breakfast was our favorite. Thanks for a great stay. We will be back again if we make it back to Ireland!
This is my 2nd time to stay here, and I always enjoy staying here. There are always plenty of spaces in the car park upon arrival. The checking in process is simple. The rooms are very spacious, clean, comfortable, and quiet. The large TV in each room also has loads of TV channels to view. The staff are very polite and courteous, and it definitely beats other 5 star hotels that I have stayed in. I will always stay here, whenever I am in Athlone.
Perfect location in the centre of Athlone. Reception staff were very welcoming and happy to answer any questions. My room was fabulous with a view of the River Shannon. The most comfortable bed, pillows and duvet I have ever slept in. We had dinner in the bar/bistro and the food was really good. I would definitely stay here again. Lovely hotel, great attention to detail.
The receptionists was friendly and greeted me and my family warmly, we had dinner all the nights we stayed and every night the meals was exceptional and the added bonus parking at the hotel was FREE and in the area was a grocery, cafe, pharmacy and fast food place it was perfect for us. The rooms was clean and comfortable and the cleaning staff was so nice.
Excellent housekeeping and friendly staff. Both check in and check out were swift with no problems. Hotel is central to Athlone, entrance located just outside Athlone town shopping centre. The room was spotlessly clean as well as the bathroom, and the bed was incredibly comfortable.
Trisha and Blair are great people laid back easygoing Irish, beautiful lake view very warm, cozy and comfortable setting is stunning close to Athlone town dead center of the country. Great Pubs, food and people. would love to stay here in the summer time. We loved everything!!
Perfect location for an overnight stay in Athlone. Clean rooms, cosey bed (minus the pillows which were a bit too hard) and lovely staff. Cheap and cheerful breakfast although just lacking the essentials for a continental buffet.
Great stay, the owner is really one of a kind person that helps you in each requests and it is a pleasure to talk with.
The hotel and the breakfast are a real taste of Ireland, super recommended for a trip in Athlone!
The room was so cute, clean, and the employees were super nice! We loved the location! It was within walking distance of the train and all the other fun things to do in Athlone!
Very modern hotel, comfortable with all mod-cons, conveniently located within Athlone, close to central bars and restaurants. Excellent restaurant and courteous hotel staff
Hotel is in an excellent location, with fantastic views of Athlone Castle and the river. Short walk away from the town itself. Hotel staff and service excellent.
Location was great for launching my boat at the adjacent slipway. It's a lively hotel - but comfortable. We enjoyed our one night stay. The breakfast was great!
Decor, staff and location were fabulous. Such a great hotel and an experience I would recommend anyone to try. Also you can bring your doggie which was lovely
Fantastic stay all around. Linda and Mark treated us like family. Breakfast was delicious. Next time we are Ireland, we will look them up for another stay
