The property is located right on the main street and therefore was a bit loud. The room was quite warm and with the windows open, the next door live music from The Wild Hare charmed us well into the early hours of the morning. Some might not like that "vibe". The staff was excellent. We were on our own when it came to parking and had to park almost a mile away from the property and get creative in managing bags to the room.

Lovely hotel, staff & food. Loud music from bar.

I stayed at Avoca with my elderly (81) mum, sister and adult daughter. We had the superior family room with lovely decor, comfy beds and good pillows. The staff were lovely - very pleasant and friendly. We had breakfast one morning and it was good. The only downside to this property which means I probably wouldn't stay again is the live music from the bar until just after 12 midnight at the weekend. Our room was directly above the bar where the band was playing and we felt every drum beat reverberating through our room. No one could consider going to sleep until after midnight.

Stayed here for a birthday celebration amongst friends. The most impressive thing about our stay was the wonderful service from staff, Siobhan on reception was instantly welcoming and helped ensure our stay was enjoyed from start to end. She really is an asset to the place.The room was large and modern with the most beautiful views of the mountains and sea. I found the wild hare bar quaint and authentic, would be nice to hear more traditional music at weekends for international guests to enjoy. This place is special as it retains character and is somewhere that has a homely vibe. Can't wait to return with friends and family.

Lovely hotel, great location, friendly staff and the rooms were clean and nicely decorated. My only complaint is that the room was very dark. During the day with daylight it was fine but there was only one small spotlight in one corner of the room and a bedside lamp that didnt work. That made it very difficult to do make up etc. Other than that we had a great stay.
