Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa, Sligo

"Very nice place. Room was lovely. Staff was kind and courteous. Directed us to Rosses Beach which everyone should see. Parking at the hotel was free and plentiful. Thank you!"

Allingham Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was extremely clean, and the view from our ocean side room was amazing."

Mill Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was outstanding in all aspects!!!!! This was by far the BEST hotel we have stayed in , highly recommend 😊"

Clayton Hotel & Leisure Club Sligo

8/10 Good

"Our stay at the Clayton Hotel was an enjoyable experience overall, particularly because we had the opportunity to take advantage of the amenities during our visit. While there were a few aspects of the accommodation that we felt could have been better, the ability to enjoy the facilities added to our stay and made the experience more worthwhile. One of the highlights was being able to use the hotel's amenities, which gave us the opportunity to relax and enjoy more than just the room itself. When staying at a hotel, having access to additional facilities can make a real difference, especially when travelling and looking for a chance to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing or exploring. We were pleased that we had enough time to enjoy these features, as they helped make our stay more enjoyable. The overall experience was positive, and being able to make use of the amenities was a definite advantage. It is always nice when a hotel offers facilities that allow guests to spend some time relaxing without having to leave the property. For us, this was an important part of the stay and something we appreciated. However, one aspect of the experience that stood out for the wrong reasons was the layout of the room. We found it very strange and somewhat unusual compared with what we would typically expect from a hotel room. The arrangement did not feel particularly intuitive, and it was not the most practical"

The Glasshouse

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally located, underground parking, stunning views. We had a balcony room on 5th floor overlooking the city. Beautiful! Great food and drinks. Highly recommend!!"
