"Really relaxing hotel. Perfect for a break. Check in staff extremely helpful and accommodating as I had booked two nights separately and ensured I was placed in the same room for both nights. I’m a repeat customer ànd hotel consistently has high standards. Always clean, comfortable and staff always helpful. "

"Check in & check out easy & fast. Breakfast is plentiful & worth the price. Staff friendly & helpful. Building is showing its age. Could use cosmetic improvement. Room bathrooms show signs of damage & lack of maintenance. No heating controls in room (only option is to open window) Choice in restaurant / bar area is limited, with no change in menu or specials offered. Overall the staff & breakfast make the stay worthwhile. "

"The staff were terrific but clearly short staffed and overworked. Not their fault—and the staff on the front desk were marvellous if you could get their attention, but it was apparent that they are short staffed. Let me begin by saying we live kids—we’ve had four and they have kids now. But this place was 24 hours of kids out of control—from the bedroom hallways to the bar and lobby…yelling, running—one twelve year old slapped the heck out if her father at the bar. Distracting, disruptive, rude—and their families did not care. So, go outside, turn left and walk into the street pubs and shops. Nice but whopping expensive for what you get (even with the exchange). The hotel as a physical structure us good—staff are great but understaffed and overworked. Hopefully you’ll be there on a night without tons if kids. And also: taxi and uber drivers were terrific!!"

"I stayed at Preston House last week. Hotels.com didn't send me the details on email as was outlined in the booking. I contacted the owner who was extremely helpful and gave me an upgrade and sent on all the details straight away. The house itself is beautiful and my room was spacious and comfortable and a really lovely place to stay. The owner checked in with me to make sure I got checked in ok and again the following day to make sure I had no problems with my stay. I work in Laois multiple times a year so I will definitely be staying here again."

"We loved our stay at this cute blue cottage. The hosts were lovely people and we felt very safe here. Everything was so perfect from the coffee to the little outdoor sitting area in the garden. We loved it so much. We also enjoyed the home feeling with the cute dogs to play with in the yard when they were around. Just perfect!"
