Biggest kip I've ever stayed in but the location was brill no need to get taxis right beside the nightlife

we were a group of girls just having a night out together, so booked the cheapest hotel, so we would have been happy with just somewhere to sleep, but this was ridiculous!! When we arrived we were greted by the strangest, rudest receptionist ever. He let out a big sigh when we asked to check in, then slumped back in... More

This has got to be the worst run Hotel I have ever stayed in. The staff are unprofessional, their claims about refurbishment are rubbish, rooms are small dirty and pokey, I personally did not feel safe staying there, my advise is to book the Talbot don’t even think about staying here, only wish I read the comments on Trip advisor...

We were greeted by a drunk barman at 5.30PM and shown a stinking room at the top of the hotel (to be away from the late bar). My gut feeling was to go straight away but we only had half an hour to get to a meeting - so we stayed. The late bar was very late, very very noisy... More

Arrived in cosmo's early enough to be greeted by the barmaid/ receptionist. Went up to our room to discover the sockets in the room didnt work and the curtains didnt close. We ordered a double room and... More

Have just returned from an overnight stay in "Cosmo Browns" and can honestly say it has to be the worst hotel I have had the misfortune of visiting. We paid 207 euro for a triple room for one night bed and breakfast and feel utterly robbed of our cash. The curtain rails were hanging off the walls, the windows were... More

A group of us went to Carlow for a hen weekend and booked this hotel well in advance. It was the worst decision we ever made. The man at reception was cold and unwelcomming and it appeared to be a major inconvenience for him to have to deal with guests. He insisted we pay up front prior to seeing the... More

Upon arrival there was noone to greet us at reception. The bar woman doubled up as receptionist and was working alone. Did not oofer the most courteous of welcomes. Took us a few attempts to even get into out room as there was problems with the key cards. Room was clean enough but curtains were hanging off rails, Windows were... More
