Adequate for weekend / overnight stay

Hotel situated a km away from town centre. Limited parking out front but large parking out back. Room comfortable and clean, with cot as requested. Service in the reception and restaurants was very good. Food tasty though some cleanliness concerns. Leisure facilities, more so the change rooms are dated.

Staff were fabulous and very helpful. Hotel is fine and very clean, if becoming a little tired. Mattress was comfy if a bit flat on one side. I'd go back in a pinch or for work. Food was great!

Comfortable stay

Leisure centre was great! And the food choices were brilliant, catered really well for non dairy and gluten free diet for dinner and breakfast. The staff could not be nicer! An issue arose while dining in the bar but it was quickly resolved. Warra ts a return visit. My only gripe is the carpet in the bedroom, looks like someone spilt bleach in different spots. And no need for the brown throw

The Killeshin is a very nice hotel.

Our room at the Killeshin was very clean with nice amenities. Check in was quick and easy and the staff was very friendly. There were no electrical receptacles bedside for my CPAP machine but staff quickly provided me with an extension cord. We purchased the made to order breakfast @ 11 Euros which was well worth the money.
