We are visiting for our son’s wedding. We stayed here at the Maldron for a few days before the wedding (which was in Westport), and came back here for the week after. It has been a lovely stay, and all the staff are wonderful. Karen, in the breakfast room, was particularly welcoming. Thanks so much for making our stay here so special.

We stayed here this weekend (5-7 Sept). Very nice and clean rooms with a lovely big bathroom The beds are excellent too. Adequate free underground parking.

Turns out the small windows are actually a benefit if you do...
