We had a lovely stay at this hotel. Staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms were very cosy and clean. We had the best dinner in a long time in the restaurant and the breakfast buffet was well stocked as well. The only frustration is one of our rooms had a smart TV, but by the other didn't, so that was a frustration with 3 kids. Otherwise no complaints!

Friendly staff and moved rooms after complaining about late night bar noise. Excellent breakfast and location perfect for exploring Wicklow. Only complaint would be about non electric cars using the charging station slots.

Staff excellent but hotels needs a bit of TLC
Staff were really friendly and helpful. Bedrooms were nice but beds very hard. We had to move to a different room on our second night as our original room was over the bar and there was noise until 1.30 that night. Main dining room is very bare and has no character but if you can manage to get a table in the original part near the bar it is lovely

Great location
Restaurant was very busy and as a result very slow. A couple of drinks orders were missed and had to be reordered. Food was good. Rooms very spacious and in decent condition. Unfortunately my room was directly above where the band were playing and was a little noisy. 30 minute walk down to Avoca so the rural location is not such a problem.

When I arrived at 7pm on a Sunday evening I thought I was in the midst of a wedding or huge party, no just an average Sunday night. Live music playing in the garden, followed by a dj in the bar and finished off by fireworks at 11pm. If I was after a quiet night I was not going to get it. The people made up for it - friendly and fun with lots of character. I couldn’t help but laugh and the frivolity of it all. Room was cosy and clean but I heard all the music and singing. The breakfast was lovely and really delicious. Great views of the ocean in the morning and an opportunity to take in a cliff walk.

Nice location and attentive staff.
Location is beautiful. Unfortunately our room was a little tired and very noisy as it faced on to the picnic tables and smoking area where other guests gathered. It was also in very close proximity to the bar where early morning cleaning/setup woke us very early. I’m sure if our room was more modern and located at the back of the hotel our experience would have been better.
