Hotel Accomodations:
Meyrick Hotel, Galway Built in 1845 and ideally located in the heart of Galway's vibrant Eyre Square, the Hotel Meyrick has been an integral part of the city's growth throughout the years. In 2003 the hotel underwent an extensive re-investment programme which set out to fuse the magnificent Victorian qualities of the hotel with vital modern facilities. The result has provided guests with a uniquely luxurious hotel that can boast the distinctive appeal of a Victorian design with all the modern features and facilities necessary for today's traveler. This famous Galway hotel offers a number of essential facilities such as the award winning Oyster Room Restaurant and the inimitable rooftop leisure centre, ideal for self indulgence and personal fitness. The Hotel Meyrick features a range of room types, each one featuring all the qualities and amenities that one would come to expect from a Hotel Meyrick. There are some splendid views of Galway Bay and the bustling Eyre Square from the comfort of the many standard rooms, executive rooms and suites. A stay at The Hotel Meyrick Galway is sure to be a memorable one.
Killarney Plaza Hotel, Killarney The Killarney Plaza Hotel & Spa is the flagship hotel for the family owned O Donoghue Ring Hotel group. The group features 2 other Killarney hotels, the 3 star Killarney Towers Hotel & Leisure Centre and the 4 star Killarney Avenue Hotel. Like the Killarney Plaza, each of these Hotels is centrally located in the town. Our fourth Kerry hotel, the River Island Hotel, is located in the market town of Castleisland, 15 miles from Killarney. A unique refuge of timeless elegance, unwavering taste and unrivaled care that simply cannot be found elsewhere.
Lord Bagenal Hotel, Leighlinbridge Although now a large hotel rather than the pub that is fondly remembered by many regular patrons, proprietors James and Mary Kehoe have taken care to retain some of the best features of the old building - notably the old end bar, with its open fire and comfortably traditional air - while incorporating new ideas. (A novel - and highly practical one - is a supervised indoor playroom, which is in the bar but behind glass so that, in time-honoured fashion, offspring can be seen and not heard). Bar meals include a lunchtime carvery/buffet which draws local diners from a wide area, but it is the new fine dining restaurant that will be of interest to visitors - and fortunately there is no need to travel far after dinner, as the bedrooms are just a few yards away. A large marbled foyer with a raised seating area and a fine selection of James Keogh’s art collection, features a lovely circular stairway with toughened glass steps leading to accommodation that includes the spacious new deluxe riverside rooms with views over the river, bridge and marina. All are comfortably furnished in a modern hotel style with phones, TV and tea/coffee facilities, while the new ones have extra features including flat screen TV and impressive bathrooms with roll tops baths.
Temple Bar Hotel, Dublin Temple Bar Hotel is a Dublin City Centre Hotel situated in the heart of Dublin’s cultural quarter and is within easy access of all main attractions including Croke Park. As Dublin hotels go this one has a lot to offer. Temple Bar Hotel Dublin offers every possible amenity literally on your doorstep, including the infamous shopping areas of Henry Street and Grafton Street, the welcome of “Molly Malone”, the world renowned Trinity College home to the Book of Kells and O'Connell Street, featuring the much talked about Millennium Spire reaching a staggering 120m into the Dublin City Centre skyline. From your accommodation in Temple Bar the hotel is a short bus-ride to the Guinness Storehouse, the National Museum of Ireland and many of Dublin's top visitor attractions. It is very accessible to all main train stations and is just 16 km from Dublin International airport. Temple Bar Hotel features 129 bedrooms, dining and bar facilities, five designated conference suites and a nearby public multi-storey car park.
