We were in Ireland for ten days, driving from town to town. We stayed at about four different hotels and Harbour Hotel was my favorite. It was within walking distance of the town center with lots of shopping. The rooms were comfy and clean, and the staff was very friendly. It also has convenient parking for e10. We added the breakfast. The food was good, but they ran out of a lot of items and seemed to be a bit understaffed. However, the staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Great location. 5 minutes walk to shopping, dining and sites. Not on the main tourist streets so you don't have to deal with the crowds when you go back to the hotel. Only 10 minutes walk to either train or bus station so very convenient if you aren't driving a car. Staff was very friendly and they even got us in our room even though we were earlier than regular check-in time.
