Few issues, wont use again
Stayed 3 nights in family room with wife and 1 yo, tried to book for 1 more night due to change in circumstance and woman at front desk with blond hair and glasses was extremely rude and unhelpful. Asked could we get help to move bags from one room to the next as at the time alone with baby, told nobody there to help. Rest of the staff especially in gym/playroom area helpful. Separately, the front entrance is a nightmare with those doors that are too small, the ramp is around the side of building but on two occasions the doors were lock so couldn't get in with buggy, have to lift up front steps. Staff watch as pushed buggy and luggage trolly to room without offering assistance, when the room is on third floor and through 8 fire doors which all closed

We checked in for a one-night stay & had an interesting night. The convention rooms are large and well-connected to the hotel, and we were lucky enough to come while the Sligo Tattoo convention was on, so we both got tattooed while we stayed! Our check-in and other interactions with the front desk staff were good, but I wouldn't say they overextended themselves to be helpful. Perhaps it was simply due to the hotel being quite busy over the weekend. Adding an ATM machine in the lobby or restaurant/bar may be a good idea. The Restaurant had excellent service, and the food was outstanding! We enjoyed our supper and breakfast quite thoroughly! Our look into the history of the hotel building provided us with some interesting reading. Its past as a hospital ( and prior as an insane asylum*) did not deter us from enjoying it, but did explain some things that seemed like remnants of that time ( the locking doors for floor access which have no relation to that past, but did hearken back to it) we enjoyed our stay. However, the hot tub was undergoing repair or renovation. The pool had lane swimming on the morning we went down to access it. It held three elderly people who were vigorously getting in their exercise, which was wonderful but made for no swimming for us. Overall a nice stay. The bed & pillows were extremely comfortable, & our shower head was one of the better ones we experienced on our trip. we were saddened that there was no tub, but that may have been my room choice

Really nice team, good quality hotel I’m not a fan of the Clayton brand as I feel it is very transactional, but in Sligo, while busy they were very good

The hotel was clean and comfortable, staff pleasant but unfortunately the room above ours was a very noisy one!! We did not get much sleep and ended up checking out at 7am due to the noise restarting just before 6am A disappointing night especially after having a lovely meal in the bar where the service was excellent.

My stay was amazing. The Hotel looks fantastic both inside and out. Get to see an old building like this rejuvenated. Staff were friendly and very helpful. If I had one small complaint it’s the fried breakfast could have been warmer.

Not fabulous but ok
We had 2 rooms booked and arrived before the scheduled check-in time. We registered and were advised that we would receive a call when the rooms were ready. No call was ever recieved and so we eventually arrived back after check-in and the rooms had already been prepared. Room was clean but generally a little on the tired side. Nevertheless the stay was comfortable enough.

Stayed for 2nts (Thursday & Friday) at the beginning of July 2024. We had a family room (basically 2x adjoining rooms with 1x bathroom); bathroom facilities were dated and in need of refurbishment. Our room seemed like an age to get to too! In addition breakfast was carnage (overcrowded for the size of area) and for the additional cost we felt this wasn’t great value for money. The use of the pool was a bonus, (although we had to purchase swim caps so bring them with you if you want a swim). Overall it was an expensive 2nts (circa £600). Won’t be rushing back!
