Reviews for Fennessy's Hotel
Review 1:Parking is in a nearby metered car park. Car is out in the open, so no security. Plus you'd have to be up early or risk a parking fine (ok if public holiday or Sunday). Maid banged on door 40 mins before checkout time to remind us. I stay about 100 nights in hotels per year worldwide, and over the last 12 years, I've never experienced that "nanny" attitude. We're adults folks. If we're over the checkout time, then ring the room and give us a warning to vacate promptly. Rooms are a bit tired and need sprucing up to be fair. TV only had 4 channels tuned at random locations....lots of "white snow". Only tiny soaps for use to hand wash and for showering. No shower gel or shampoo dispenser. Needs to get into the 21st century. No credit cards accepted.
Review 2:Location is very central within easy reach of shops, pubs etc. on foot. Checkin staff was very helpful and flexible.
Review 3:Lovely staff very friendly and helpful and the location was perfect for my wife and I We had booked a room for two nights sat and sun. When we arrived they gave us a one bed appartment for the same money so that was a nice surprise. The appartment was old style but nice for two nights.
Review 4:I couldn't get breakfast as the door into the dining areas was shut and they'd finished serving before the 10.30am finish time I'd been told about
Review 5:Convenient location I had left my glasses after me and I appreciate the phonecall I got to advise me of it
Review 6:Not very clean. In grave need of an upgrade. Base of bed was broken, and really old. Bed linen was clean, but don't lift the sheets.
Review 7:Located in center of the town
Review 8:Room was small , breakfast wasn't very nice but staff were, room was facing road and windows were not modern so lots of traffic and road sweeper noises.
Review 9:Location was perfect for a night out
Review 10:the hotel could do with new look and update also the parking is so bad in the town for guest it needs urgent action by your town council to make places for guest to park without looking over there shoulder for traffic warden. That you can relax and enjoy your lovely town.
Review 11:The bar staff were all very friendly also the woman that looked after our room and cooking our breakfast was excellent what ever you asked for she delivered.
Review 12:The king bed was two beds together and kept sliding apart. My one tiny complaint.
Review 13:Friendly, helpful staff. Went above and beyond to help us because our luggage didn't arrive. Great breakfast. Superb bar.
Review 14:Outdated, scary decor. The room was tiny, dusty and not clean, the matress was in a shocking state. The room did not lock and I hardly slept. The breakfast was in some sort of metal cannister which was heated by a candle, not freshly cooked. I ordered scrambled egg which resemled congealed grey snot ! Completely inedible. All in all a shocking experience at a shocking price, I have stayed in hostels which would give this place a run for its money !
Review 15:Absolutely nothing, I wanted to leave the minute I seen my room but was aware that I was limited to go elsewhere as other places were booked out.
Review 16:The room was like a box room and you would fall out of the tiny shower room and on to the bed Breakfast was not freshly cooked. Sausages tasted like they were reheated. Only thing freshly cooked were the eggs
Review 17:Location cleanliness
Review 18:no plug in sink, tap water sounds like a camel howling, other than that a great stay
Review 19:bar staff, cook, fantastic and everyone so friendly, value for money, great breakfast, comfy bed,
Review 20:Rooms are charged at hotel prices but are not hotel standard. Ideal for what we wanted (small group of guys attending the racetrack) but would not go there if looking for a romantic weekend away with the wife.
Review 21:Location and Breakfast
Review 22:the parking. but I have to say the guy at the check in was very good and gave us directions to a car park just around the corner at 3.50 euros all day parking.
Review 23:friendly atmosphere in the bar. excellent breakfast. hotel is central location, ideal for that short walk to the shops, pubs.
Review 24:Worn furnishings in room. Detail cleanliness was lacking in rooms. A lot of stairs to reach many rooms. Purchases in the pub are not billable to the room account, and they do not accept credit cards!
Review 25:Authentic look and decorations. Pub on main floor is an experience to itself! Beautiful appearance on the outside. Location is great to see Clonmel and as a base to explore castles in Tipperary County
Review 26:Room was a little on small size for 2 guests but nothing major. It was a pity that there was no designated parking for guests near the hotel so parked my car a few doors away.
Review 27:Hassel free check in & friendly lad on duty behind the bar on the evening we arrived who swiftly checked us in. Room was comfy. The traffic warden didnt give me a ticket when i explained i was a guest in your hotel, (considering where i parked my car).
Review 28:me being unfit probably walking up the stairs.
Review 29:the staff were excellent. especially the lady cooking the breakfast. she couldint do enough for us . we will be back again next time we visit clonmel.
Review 30:Loved the breakfast, staff very friendly and helpful, bar very cosy, location perfect for shopping, everyone looked after us so well, we would recommend this hotel to anyone going to Clonmel, thanks Fennessys for a lovely stay we will be back for sure!!
Review 31:We had to go to the pub below the hotel to look for the staff in order to chek-in after waiting for them at the reception for more than 10 minuts. The room was dusty and no soap was provided. Only one pair of towel for 2 people was provided. The breakfast was poor. The hotel was really humid.
Review 32:The only nice thing I can think of is lady cooking the breakfast in the morning.
Review 33:everything was good one thing would be helpful they should have bus and train timetables its awkward finding out travel times

Review 96:Good location. Good breakfast. Comfortable bed.
Review 97:This place is a firetrap. Soon after arriving, I followed the exit signs down the back stairway and came to a dead end at a locked gate. Had to exit through the bar of the hotel. In the morning, I had to "escape" from my room by UNSCREWING the non-operational end of the security chain because I could not release the chain. I was surprised to find that I could do this with my fingers. Not very secure. Breakfast was unappetizing and the help was unhelpful. In all, not a good experience.

Review 104:The owner of the premises very unfriendly although a nice chap at reception, wanted payment on check-in and not as normal on check-out. No lifts to bedrooms, this was not stated when booking, no car park. A loud disco playing from 8.30pm until 12.30 pm - no consideration for residents. Breakfast was ok, no fruit etc. but a nice woman serving us. no nice welcome when you arrive, cold.......
