We decided to stay here so that we would be close to the Shannon airport for a mid day flight the following day. Big mistake. I would recommend the Temple Gate in Ennis instead. The Oak Wood is in need of serious remodeling and janitorial assistance. Hallways are dark and smelly. Our bathroom was in very poor condition. Beds are... More

We have stayed here 3 times over the years and I'm just getting to write about it. While living in Ireland from 2005 - 2011 we would use Shannon Airport for all of our flights. At first we tended to drive down from Connemara on the morning of our flights but this became ridiculously tiring. We decided to try this... More

I recently stayed at this hotel on business for a week and the rustic charm of the hotel soon disappeared... Check-in: The receptionist was friendly and upbeat but fairly useless and unable to follow basic instructions she was clearly more interested in playing with her phone and chatting to her mate that came in half way through check-in.

However, it was the dark panelling and stained glass which actually gave the hotel a charm which I warmed to. Our meal in... More

On our first night there was a noise which kept us awake we said it to reception the following morning and it was dealt with immediately by the manager. We were upgraded to the... More
