Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a convenient location close to the main pubs and a nightclub, making it easy to enjoy the nightlife. The rooms are well-maintained and feature a lovely four-poster bed, although some minor issues like the shower shelf need attention. The service is top-notch with excellent dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry services, and a welcoming drink. However, the dining options are somewhat limited with just sausages offered. Overall, a decent stay with a vibrant atmosphere for those looking to explore the local entertainment.
The hotel offers a cozy stay with a great four-poster bed in the bedroom, but the bathroom feels cramped and has broken features like the falling shower shelf. The service is excellent with dry cleaning, housekeeping, and a welcome drink. The location is perfect, right in the center of town with easy access to all the pubs and activities. The dining experience includes homemade pies and jams, making it a delightful culinary journey.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room had a nice four-poster bed but with several broken features like the shower shelf falling off. Overall, the room was in good condition, but these issues were noticeable. The service was excellent, and the staff provided great assistance. The hotel is conveniently located in the center of Monaghan town, making it easy to access all the pubs and activities. While the dining options were satisfactory with light meals included, the facilities were lacking in some aspects. The value for money was decent considering the central location.
