Loved the decor. Pub downstairs definitely popular with locals and prices for food and drinks very affordable. Within walking distance of two historical sites (12th century castle and church). Lots of little shops and pubs within easy walking distance. Quiet and quaint. Operating the lift up to our room was a challenge and climbing into the deep tub in our room would be a problem for anyone with mobility issues but all good otherwise.

Very cozy atmosphere. Staff was great. They could use additional breakfast items. Fruit on the menu, but didn't have it available twice when I tried ordering it. I will definitely recommend this hotel to others.

Enjoyed our one-night stay in Swords at the Old Borough. Lots of good window shopping along the street and in the large mall across the street (which includes a movie theatre). Super convenient locairon to the Dublin Airport and local historic and scenic sites north of Dublin.
