Breakfast menu was fine, tasty. But never changed and we were here for a week. Rooms were clean, however, we were given an option to upgrade our room to get one with a view, when we arrived they said they couldn’t “honor” it because we were there for “so long”. No big deal. But that was the start of our experience.. keep reading!
When we took showers at the end of the day, the water pressure was so low, it barely came out as a sprinkle, and the water could barely get to lukewarm temp. It was maddening! Then to top it off, sleeping after that was almost impossible. The beds were as hard as rocks, and the sheets were rough, and the pillows felt like stacks of compressed cardboard with a rough pillow case covering it.
The next morning I asked the reception If someone could check why our shower wasn’t working. They said if they couldn’t fix it they’d move us into a new room.
End of day came, no one communicated to each other so when we asked about it, no one knew, but they ended moving our room to “one with a view” of Christ church cathedral. Lovely!
However, the water pressure was equally as weak, could barely rinse the soap off yourself or the shampoo out of your hair. I kindly asked the reception about this and I was told “Ireland has an issue with water pressure. It’s normal”.
So for 6 nights and $2,000 dollars, on Easter week, we dealt with miserable hard beds, hard as concrete pillows, no water pressure. Other hotels in Ireland we went to after had fabulous water pressure!
