Fantastic hotel, bar, and pool! Great stay.

Greatest

Hotel was nice but we paid a premium for facilities like the pool that we thought we could use for the kids. We only found out on 8 hrs before we arrived that the pool hours for kids were restricted between 10:30 AM - 7:00 PM, which when we were planning to arrive around 7:30-8:00 and leave at 9:30 am, made it useless to us. These hours should be publicly posted on the website, not just communicated via email again. We also thought breakfast was included in our rate given “full breakfast available” was listed as a hotel amenity and when we were checking in, the staff person said “you can just go to breakfast, don’t need to bring anything”, implying that it would be covered. When we arrived at breakfast the next morning, the staff member was highlighting room numbers only to say that ours did not include breakfast and we were charged an extortionate amount for a buffet breakfast. Felt very much like a bait and switch strategy and when you’re paying a premium rate for a hotel, you’d expect much more.

A very modern hotel with good amenities.

Everything was nice and smooth. However the air con wasn't brilliant. But it was exceptionally hot. Food was really good. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Did not have breakfast

No breakfast included when booked with Hotels.com but you can pay for it at the hotel for €18per head , good hotel , clean big rooms , it’s really handy to Ashbourne

Very happy with the hotel, staff very friendly. Just one complaint is that netflix isn't available. Would be handy to have when visiting with children and as it's a popular hotel for children I think it would help parents out

Clean rooms, swimming pool & lots attractions for children

Highly recommend the Pillo. The rooms are spacious, immaculate, and have all amenities you would need (iron, hairdryer etc.) The food in the restaurant was very good, as was breakfast, and the menus catered well for everyone. The hotel had entertainment provided in the evening for the children, and an arcade room, which is perfect for families with young kids. We all enjoyed the pool and spa, which again, was super clean and well maintained. We chose this hotel as it is close to Emerald Park, so its perfect if you're visiting the area for that reason.

Hotel handy for Emerald Park. Grand for families for an overnight. However breakfast wasn’t of a four star standard and the cleanliness of hotel/ swimming pool was not up to scratch/ what you would expect of four star hotel - pool changing area unclean ( at 8am in the morning, so only going to get worse) and the floors around reception were not cleaned / tidy early morning which is when you would expect it to be at its cleanest.

Good location for Emerald Park however hotel room floor was filthy and not hoovered (pretzels and biscuits all over floor). We had to pay for everything as we went along and they wouldnt let us charge to the room. Shower was good when it worked. Most plugs in the room didnt work. Mouldy curtains in room also. They seperate the bar and restaurant however the menu is the same and we had to go looking for menus in the restaurant.

I booked the reservation Booking taken No availability Refund coming from Hotels.com This is not the first time the Pillo have taken a booking and than rang me to say they had no rooms

Nice hotel, very friendly staff. Lovely bar. Breakfast was excellent. Rooms nice. Would stay there again.

Great food in the bar for dinner 60 euro for breakfast 2 adults 2 kids was a bit much for what we ate Pool reception under construction, only 1 single changing room, pool area messy and a bit dirty and some fun bits broken, water warm though Clean room and toilet, beds ok, adjoining room so heard neighbours very clearly at 2am but door locked and safe
