Gorgeous historic building, in ideal location for aviva stadium, with parking. Room and beds were comfortable and great size. Only issue was the gluten free options, which were a bit limited. Bread at breakfast was horrible, so we bought some ourselves for the second day. And no gf options for pastries or sausages etc. At dinner there were also quite limited options for starters (salad) and only gf pudding was ice cream. We only managed to get a main course to eat (as none on menu we were given, apart from a burger with salad) as the helpful bar manager brought us a different menu. For a hotel of this size it was disappointing to not have more choices. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the staff were great.

Lovely hotel. Let down by restaurant food
Great stay for rugby weekend. Room clean, well appointed and comfortable. Great breakfast. Only negative was the very average food in evening. Pretty poor quality and over priced. Otherwise a great hotel to stay in for a rugby weekend

Really disappointing room and service
Our check in was terrible - we asked for cash back because there is no cash machine at the hotel and they took 200 off our card only to then tell us it was credit not cash back, at which point we were told a refund would take several days. Our room looked good but turned out not to be. It was allegedly an upgrade but it has a interconnecting door which we were not told about and because our check took so long and we had an event, we didn’t notice until we got back that night. It was a horrifically noisy place with noises from other rooms and every time our neighbour used the bathroom. The room was very hot with no way of changing the heat. The shower control fitting was loose and didn’t work properly meaning water coming from the shower head and bath tap at the same time, the sink plug got stuck in place and we couldn’t undo it; eventually wedges it free but hurt my finger. The breakfast was grand and the hotel itself is nice but the room and check in services were atrocious. My wife is pregnant and she was very upset that our room had a weird door to another room without notice. Really need to do much better for 260 euro a night

Good, not quite great.
Good enough, comfy bed, good breakfast and dinner. Gym is not worth going to and needs expanding x 5 and investment in new kit. For a hotel this size to have a gym with 20 year old kit that fits 5 people is not good enough. Room was quite old fashioned, perfectly good enough and comfy! Need a spruce up I think, but fundamentally I’d happily stay there again.

This was my first stay with Clayton hotels. First impressions are were good ,reception was big,clean and welcoming. Staff on reception helpful and friendly. My room was really nice, clean and spacious. Had everything that I would need for my stay. Only problem I had was with the TV every time it was turned off when it went back on it was muted and had to be reset each time which was a bit of an inconvenience. So I just ended up keeping it on. Breakfast was lovely enough selection for a good breakfast with some pastries and cheeses also. Overall a lovely stay and staff were always friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay again or at another Clayton hotel.
