Large room with fantastic breakfast options

We loved this hotel room! The room was huge and the bathroom was massive! It also had parking behind, which was very convenient. The best thing was the delicious breakfast across the street! Strongly recommend The Lodge at the Old Barracks.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Drove around Ireland with my son for almost three weeks staying in a different place each night and this was by far our favorite hotel. Lovely clean comfortable rooms friendly staff. Hotel, cafe across the street, and pizza place next door are all owned by the same nice guy and what really set this place apart other than the great rooms was the food. Included breakfast is basically anything off the menu at the cafe across the street and the pizza place had the best pizza we had in Ireland. They were sold out otherwise we would have happily extended our stay another day. Pub up the street has good live music too. Highly recommend this place!
