all reviews » The location was very pleasant, with fabulious views of the lake and golf course. The rooms are a very good size, and very clean. The provision of free internet connection in the room was very helpful. Breakfast choice, facilities incl leisure centre etc. Staff friendly and helpfull Pool Great. I would have liked to avail of the leisure facilities but my schedule was tight - event went on until 10 pm friday and commenced at 9 am Saturday. There was no room to fit in the gym or pool. Not your problem.Spa..... Eveing meal in restaraunt. Overall good quality. Location, facilities. The swimming pool. Breakfast. nice and relaxing. food was very good.The Scenery. The food was very good and most of the staff were very friendly and courteous. The setting. We attended a wedding and the table service was excellent. Helpful staff. The views. We booked lakeview deluxe room but we got very small standard room in old part of the hotel with the view on the wall instead of the lake. However when we reported back to reception we were given the correct room promptly.I ordered room service continental breakfast for the last morning of my stay and this was forgotten, so I would've had to go without anything to eat from 6am, until arriving home at 3pm if someone hadn't made me tea and toast before I left. I am diabetic so this would have been very difficult to manage. An error was made on my bill. When pointed out it was amended immediately. The error was that I was bolled for 2 dinners in the restaurant. Wrong room number was given or recorded.Small things, would it be too much to put a couple of bottles of water in the rooms? also would it be too difficult to put body lotion, shampoo and shower gel in the bathroom?. Parking, carvery food availablilty and service. I was working in Athlone at the time of our stay and was horrified to find that we had no water supply in our room on the first morning. Staff were very apologetic and did eventually fix problem but too late for me to take a shower! I think a reduction in our final bill might have been a good gesture but none was given!. Bad view (piping ? ) from bedroom window. it came across as a working hotel (corporate) and not as relaxing as I thought a hotel on the shores of a lake would be, which is why i chose the location. room was a bit small. On the morning of Friday 12th Sept, there was no hot water in the bathroom to take a shower, so it meant having to get dressed without a shower, as we had all planned to meet for breakfast, The access to the room we were staying in, considering i accompanied my 85 year old aunt to attend a wedding, was somewhat inconvenient and would have been quite confusing for her if she was on her own. The room I was in (the older part of the hotel) was just ok.It was very noisy, you could hear people in next room's toilet flush! Not very well soundproofed. And breakfast quality was very poor. One of the receptionists was what I considered very offhand to a customer while I was checking in with the other lady. My check-in was very pleasant. I also did not like my room. I would consider when booking a 4 star hotel that all the rooms would be fitted out to a similar high quality. The bathroom in my room was very old and needs a good re-vamp. The sealant around the bath was gone brown. We got a smoking room which was smelly. We had asked for non-smoking. Thought €198 was relatively expensive for the bed and breakfast. I've stayed in nicer 4 star hotels with more modern bedrooms for less money. Also, the hotel's own website was more expensive than this one which doesn't look good. Too expensquality provided. service/poor food.
