We can’t rave enough about Tara Lodge. It was really like staying in a bed and breakfast. The staff was attentive to our every need. This hotel was so comfortable and clean and within walking distance of every main shopping district. Or a quick taxi ride. Staying here really made our trip more comfortable and we were able to experience more because of the amenities offered here. We really appreciated it. Highly recommend.

We traveled all of Ireland and stayed in fancy hotels but this one was the best. Very cozy and staff were extremely helpful. Best place to eat in all of Ireland was Darcy’s just a few minute walk from this place. Will definitely visit again when we go back.
