Abbey Hotel
Hotel very central to town. Rooms very clean. However, triple room at front small for 4 people. Not enough wardrobe space or chair to sit on for older people. Bathrooms small but clean and manageable. Staff super friendly. Internet didn't work on top floor but did on ground floor.!! Breakfast was great and excellent value. Bar food not so great. Restaurant menu not much different but didn't eat there. Would prefer to eat out in the evenings. Overall great wee hotel and value for money.

It's absolutely amazing stay at the Abbey Hotel, I loved it so much. The stuff are friendly and nice, the restaurant has great options for amazing food. Also the Diamond area is very nice and walkable, where you find great restaurants and souvenir shops. Parking is easy too. There are many sight seeing places within 30 - 60 minutes, Silver Strand is just charming place visit, as well as Sain Johns' light house.
