My stay at the hotel was delightful! The location was fantastic, just on the edge of the village, offering a perfect setting to explore the beautiful surroundings and enjoy the serene atmosphere of Ardmore. The rooms were newly decorated, clean, and very comfortable, although a bit on the smaller side. The service was top-notch, with the staff being incredibly friendly and helpful. However, there was a small hiccup with the staff not showing up as arranged, but it didn't overshadow the overall pleasant experience. The dining experience was a mixed bag, with a nice variety but a slight mishap with expired yogurt. The facilities were great, making my stay relaxing and convenient.

The hotel had great facilities overall, but there were some minor hiccups. The room service, dry cleaning, housekeeping, and laundry services were good. However, the welcome drink offer seemed initially generous with the € 15 discount, but later turned out to be € 30, which was a bit misleading.
