The room was spacious and worked ok for us - bed arrangements a little weird with 3 single beds and a very small double. At the price paid (Euro 140 B&B) I would have expected in room wifi for...

Stayed friday night last. Was given an upgrade to executive room which was lovely, a huge bed and very comfy. Ate in the Bistro, very good deal for 3 courses and a drink. Food was lovely. It was a really cold day so didn't use the pool. Staff were lovely and we really enjoyed our first stay in The Ardilaun.... More
