Review 1:Shower very weak especially the cold frosty morning I stayed there. No satellite channels in room even though it was advertised. I should have said it to staff but I wasn't that concerned as I arrived late and was tired.

Review 4:I wasn't feeling too good so went to bed at 9pm.about 10 pm I was awakened by very loud music from downstairs which went on till 1 am.I couldn't get to sleep until 4 am and when I went down at 7.30 am I asked this beautiful female manager why I hadn't been informed about the noise.she immediately refunded my cost and apologized to me.great service, just wish I had asked for her phone number, but will definitely stay here again.

Review 8:sorry guys but to be left for some fifteen minutes waiting for a menu to be handed or to be even acknowledged as I sat there is not good practice especially if your not that busy. only I passed the menus myself and took one I was on my way out to get some service elsewhere. never ever gave out in all my years on the road

Review 12:The staff in the restaurants were rude and unhelpful and the food was not good at all!! The walls were also very thin so could hear conversations in next room

Review 19:The food in the hotel was excellent and the staff were very helpful and friendly
Review 20:Wifi speed was very slow at times, but provided just enough speed to obtain information I needed. Probably due to the hotel being very busy with a lot of visitors. Apart from that everything else was great.
Review 21:Hotel was very clean. Staff were very friendly and attentive and food prices were very reasonable. Conveniently located to next to main roads into and out of Wexford. I will certainly choose this hotel again when next in Wexford. Staff made the stay very enjoyable. They were attentive, friendly and helped at all times I requested information.
Review 22:Well positioned for stopover before ferry crossing. Traveling with young children and found a great play centre 5 mins walk away. Breakfast very prompt in the morning and staff really helpful and friendly. Very reasonable price for family room.
Review 23:The shower stopped working when the toilet was flushed. The bath is very smalll. the soap dispenser up very high.
Review 24:The breakfast was excellent and the beds were very comfortable . Very nice staff and very clean hotel.
Review 25:Bleach type smell of bed clothes. Was really strong & was our only fault with the stay. Hotel should look at how they are laundering their bed linen
Review 26:It was a lovely stay, only had one fault, see next for details.
Review 27:The shower in the bathroom could have had been better no pressure behind the water so took ages to have a shower- there are two tables near the door headen from the resturant to the bar or smoking area that could do with been moved as when people walk in and out through the door the breeze on your back is shocking, I would have asked to move but was very busy on the Sunday Evening.
Review 28:The location is very good near all places that you would wish and want to see! Rooms are spacious and clean, beds were very comfy! The food in the resturant in the hotel was fab and we'll worth 11-15 euro price tag. The bar staff and waiters and waitress are very friendly.
Review 29:None.
Review 30:Staff extremely friendly. Food excellent. A very good breakfast. We had dinner one night with other family members and all felt the meal was brilliant. Bedroom was excellent.
Review 31:Restaurant was close to the front door, so a bit drafty. Rooms area had feel of a conversion but still comfy and cosy.
Review 32:Food was filling and tasty. Pleasant view of fields from my room. Quick and easy to get around hotel. Quiet at night in Rm 25

Review 34:Lovely quite hotel. No corridor noise like other hotels ive stayed at.
Review 35:En suite was a bit dated
Review 36:Food was beautiful and its the first hotel that I've been to for a long time that breakfast wasn't self service. We just sat down and our order was taken. Very nice. And dinner in the bar the previous evening was also beautiful and good value at €10.50
Review 37:The Wi-Fi in the rooms was terrible. Worked well in the lobby and restaurant. Also, the room TVs need to be upgraded.
Review 38:The main desk person was very friendly. In fact he was all over the place....serving at the bar, bringing out dinner and even there in the morning for breakfast. Nice small hotel.
Review 39:room very dated, I don't like shower curtains as I find them very hard to keep clean. The food in the bar was excellent my steak was truly delicious but where we were sitting was right by the door and every time someone opened the door major draught going on (no other table free)
Review 40:location excellent.
Review 41:Stayed 2 days second day no hot water all day. WiFi not working at all for both days we were there. Not told there was going to be a party going on until early hours in the function room which would keep us awake
Review 42:The location of the hotel. The breakfast. Evening meals. Hotel was clean.
Review 43:WiFi only worked in the main hotel reception and bar, not in the rooms. The bathroom in room 26 was far to small.
Review 44:A good location only being 20 mins from the ferry port of Rosslare. The hotel offers a good restaurant and bar. Secure area to lock motorcycles over night.
Review 45:Beds were a bit small. My partner and u are tall, 5'10 & 6 foot and the beds were a little bit small for us.
Review 46:Breakfast was amazing. Staff were fab.
Review 47:This is basically a hotel for small functions or those on the way to Rosslare. It is not for those seeking a pampered break. Its 4km from the town for a start. Room was basic, mattress on bed was thin, you could feel the springs, the maid didn't bother to clean the room during our stay, we were handed towels becayse we were in the room and that's it. No gym, pool, spa, etc. function room right next to our room. All fine if you pay 50 euro per night, but many places like this think they are offering a bargain at 100 euros per night.
Review 48:Staff were pleasant
Review 49:Room was basic but fresh and clean. We had a meal when we arrived which was very nice and very good value for money. Staff were friendly and very efficient.
Review 50:Bed too small,poor matress,had to use stairs no lift. The kettle and cups was very dirthy in the room. Traffic noise from the main road. Very slow wifi. The staff on check-in were very unpleasant!! The room was in need of decoration carpet was frayed and the bathroom was small and needed refurbished. The shower had little power.NO SHAMPOO FOR MY SHOWER. Would not stay again
Review 51:location bar&restauranut staff
Review 52:spent an hour each night in pub bar and found it convivial until I got a black bushmill and was charged 5 70
Review 53:helpfulness of all staff and good food for breakfast and evening meal
Review 54:Tiles in the bathroom need to be re-grouted.
Review 55:The staff were so helpful and polite, the hotel is so welcoming and cosy,the food is super! Lovely comfortable bed and warm room, lovely to come in out of the cold February wind :-)
Review 56:It is a little out of town which might cause problems for some but I had a car so it was fine.
Review 57:This is a lovely cosy hotel with an old fashioned feel to it,however everything is new an modern.breakfast was delicious,the staff were very friendly an offered directions to me when needed.dinner was delicious an reasonably priced.i really enjoyed my stay an would recommend it to others.
Review 58:Reception staff was too busy to order us a taxi so we arranged our own, getting a taxi back from the town to the hotel was time consuming The hotel should consider arranging their own taxi driver. On new Years eve, it took some time for the night porter to handle a bunch of rowdy guests.
Review 59:The rooms were nice and spacious, the breakfast was very good as was any of the food from the bar/Restaurant and they made an effort for new years. Very good in all, great value and would recommend to a friend.
Review 60:Beds were not made properly after sleeping in them. Duvet was just thrown over and pillows not even taken off the bed to make it.
Review 61:The Food was very good.
Review 62:It was difficult to get attention on the night I stayed, They were understaffed for my needs, The girl who was working reception was serving in the restaurant when I arrived and I had to ask someone at the bar whom I should check in with,. When I went for something to eat, I had to find a waiter myself to take my order for dinner. The toilets in the restaurant area were not monitored. There was toilet paper all over the place. The rest was clean, At breakfast nobody directed guests to tables and I had to figure out for myself where to sit, Only part of the restaurant was set up for breakfast and the area was not obvious or clearly marked, My order for breakfast was misunderstood When I said I wanted a mini breakfast they assumed I meant a continental and did not bring the cooked breakfast, They couldn't have been nicer and more apologetic when they realised their mistake, I feel the value for money aspect of this stay lost some of its lustre due to under-resourcing and the resultant simple, avoidable, mistakes that occurred.
Review 63:Food was very good. Room was basic and spotless, Night Porter was very friendly. I found the staff in general, helpful and friendly, when I finally got their attention. At breakfast they misunderstood my order and when they realised I had ordered a cooked breakfast they were very apologetic and nice. The food when it arrived was very good, The cost of the B&B was reasonable and I suppose I got what I paid for but I feel one more resource would ensure that guests were not left to figure their own way and go in search of service, It would also make things in the restaurant a little less frantic and simple mistakes as happened to me would be much less likely to happen. The toilets would, presumably, also be more closely monitored. It should not be up to the guests to bring matters of cleanliness and service to the attention of the staff. The staff themselves were lovely, friendly and helpful. The good intention was there with them but the atttention to detail was absent, in my opinion. It should not be down to the customer to pro-actively seek their attention.for simple things which should be part and parcel of any service they provide. No matter how simple the presentation, value for money is compromised if the service and attention to detail is not there,
Review 64:Great hotel great food and very friendly staff especially girl at checkin who arranged a cot for our little baby she was very helpful would highly recommend it to anyone.
Review 65:The staff was very friendly. For me they dud ABCD (above and beyond the call of duty) and even gave me a discount= "every little helps"
Review 66:No lift to upper floor. Cracks in wash hand basin in bathroom and tiling grout need freshening up.
Review 67:We found the food and the service excellent. The staff in the restaurant and bar were very friendly and welcoming. We had the roast beef when we arrived and it was superb. We very much enjoyed our stay there.
Review 68:Room clean and comfortable but could do with a few more plug sockets. Ensuite could do with modernisation to bring to standard of rest of hotel.
Review 69:Staff very friendly and helpful. Food is to die for. Very relaxing and a very homely feel to it will definitely stay here again.
Review 70:The room was big enough for my family and the atmosphere was quiet enough for a good night sleep and the staffs were helpful and nice. it was a good location from the Town center and the fact that free parking was available in the hotel was a added bonus.
Review 71:Liked everything from the moment we walked through the door. Staff so friendly and helpful. Great food and relaxed atmosphere. Comfortable, clean room.....just perfect. We will definitely be back, looking forward to it.
Review 72:Bathrooms could do with a steam clean of all grouting and around taps and soap holders !!

Review 91:Other staff members were not really friendly. The location is not great, it's at the side of a busy road. Not really what I was looking for but that's a personal thing.
Review 92:Some of the staff were lovely. The rooms were large. The food was really good.
Review 93:Room hastings beckoned twice. First as the room we were given was already occupied, secondly the room we were given had not been clean, cleaning staff had left for the day. Thoroughly incompetent receptionist/manager. Who thought it was quiet funny that both of these incidents had occurred.
Review 94:Good location not far from wexford town
Review 95:We were a group of 30 somethings down for a bike race. I'd say we halved the average age of the hotel guest. A lot of pensioners having lunch on Saturday and then some OAP event that night. The hotel is a bit out of town also - not walking distance.
Review 96:The hotel was comfortable and the staff were friendly. The room rate was good and when one of our party cancelled at the very last minute they discounted a room when they didn't really have to.
Review 97:The food in the restaurant was pub grub /carvery style however theydo make very nice sandwiches for lunch The location is a little out fromwexford town you would not walk it at night and would require a taxi
Review 98:A pleasant value for money hotel with very friendly staff Room wasadequate for our needs
Review 99:while our room was spacious and clean it was quite a walk from reception having to go upstairs and then downstairs to another block. Maybe there are plans to further renovate. Prop
