    Charming Stop Over with Great Atmosphere

    A delightful stay with a charming ambiance and live traditional music at the bar. The receptionist was warm and responsive to our needs. Enjoyed a lovely meal at the bistro, though breakfast service needs improvement. Recommend requesting a quieter room away from the festivities for better peace.

    charging sockets
    bathroom amenities

    It was just an appropriate option for taking strolls in Ennis with fantastic value. The bathroom amenities were nice, and I appreciated having charging sockets by the bed. Make sure to ask about room specifics to avoid any surprises.

    cozy beds
    great spot
    snug bathroom
    limited space

    Had a cozy stay! The comfy beds were a real highlight after long days of exploring. The only drawback was the bathroom being a tad snug. Overall, a great spot! 🌟

    cozy bar
    charming bistro
    great location
    tight bathroom
    awkward toilet paper

    What a gem! The Town Hall Bistro served up a cracking dinner, and the bar had that cozy vibe with live tunes. Loved the charm of the place—definitely didn't feel like your average hotel. Plus, the location was spot on, just a hop away from the heart of Ennis!

    Just a wee bit snug in the bathroom. tight space and no towel racks made it tricky. And that high shelf toilet paper? A bit of a reach for this tall traveler!

    Charming hotel with exceptional service

    I had a wonderful stay with my family, enjoying the old-world charm and cozy atmosphere. The staff were welcoming and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. The breakfast was made to order, and the dining at the Bistro was fantastic, with generous portions and delicious flavors.

    spacious rooms
    attentive staff
    slow breakfast service
    crowded overflow area
    lack of modern decor

    Spacious and comfortable rooms make for a pleasant stay, complemented by attentive staff who remembered drink orders from earlier visits. The vibrant atmosphere includes a true Irish pub with live music and delicious dining options, particularly the lamb shank. However, during busy breakfast times, the overflow area can lead to slower service, and the lack of modern decor might not appeal to everyone.

    great stay but room lacked modern amenities

    The building has a charming character that enhances your stay! The location is central, making it easy to explore the area.

    My room could really use some upgrades.

    cozy atmosphere
    beautiful garden

    The atmosphere felt like a cozy country house, and I loved the antique decor. The spacious room had an amazing sitting area overlooking a beautiful garden. The little hotel kitty stole our hearts, and we enjoyed exploring the fun town nearby.

    excellent location
    noise disturbances
    thin door gap

    The location of this hotel is superb, right in the heart of Ennis, making it convenient for my business meetings. The room was spacious and equipped with a LARGE desk, which facilitated my work needs efficiently. Additionally, the staff provided excellent assistance, ensuring my check-in and check-out processes were seamless.

    Some noise disturbances from the corridor affected my sleep.
