Comfortable Stay

free parking great location whiskey selection hotel shop
My room was a Classic Twin Room. I found parking easily and it was free. The location provided a great base to explore locally. The hotel shop had a fabulous selection of local whiskeys (a must-see for enthusiasts!).
My room only had one accessible plug socket, made charging devices slightly inconvenient.
Service

The staff were very friendly and cute. Paul, the general manager, provided a tour of the hotel, including new projects. Declan, the barman, offered very knowledgeable whiskey recommendations and explanations.
