Lovely staff and hotel with lots to do

We had a lovely one night stay gatecrashed by my 6 year old who keeps asking to go back. Staff were helpful and friendly, the pool was lovely, we had a fabulous meal in the hotel and my son was a fan of the pancakes at breakfast. We'll be back!

Family stay at Christmas

The hotel is in a wonderful location for a family holiday. Maynooth is a bustling town with plenty going on.The hotel swimming pool is lovely. The staff barely look at you. There's a great playground across the road from the hotel. We were disappointed with the kids club. The toys are broken or missing batteries and the activities weren't very engaging. The girls working at the kids club were very inexperienced and appeared bored. Trying to host a movie night by showing Jungle book on YouTube is less than adequate. The breakfast is wonderful, although the breakfast room spilled over into the bar and service was patchy. The restaurant is overpriced for what you get for dinner. However, there are an abundance of beautiful restaurants in Maynooth and a number of establishments delivering via Justeat. We're unlikely to stay here again as an enjoyable kids club is a priority for us.
