The Hardiman

Great dinner party in McNeills. Basement bar in Eyre Sq. Worth a visit.

This was an amazing stay from the spotless room to the fantastic staff. Breakfast was beautiful and well made . The front desk staff had great recommendations as well as being welcoming and going above and beyond. Thank you to Bradley for the special surprise on the new of our engagement .

The property was gorgeous. The rooms were large and comfortable. We ate at the Oyster Bar and MacNeills and both were delicious. It was right on Eyre Square, close to all city center attractions

Not a thing

The staff were fantastic. Very friendly and particularly helpful.

There was a wet, musty smell in the hall and lift.

We booked 4 rooms > one ( room215) was very nice , spacious had a great bathroom , two rooms were adequate. furniture old and bathrooms need re vamping and in room 201 the toilet had not been flushed and there was urine in the toilet bowl. The next day there was no water nor toilet rolls supplied. but the biggest disappointment was room 214. It was tiny, the bathroom was sooo old fashioned. ,the shower a throw back to the 60 s. It was hard to believe it was in the same hotel as room 215, it was also charged at the same rate as the other rooms. Breakfast was very disappointing, the bread tasted like it had been left out overnight. the bacon was chewy and tasteless. I left feeling hungry . some of the staff were lovely with smiles and great attitude, lets not talk about the grumpy men in the basement bar, if you dont want to serve customers , why work there We complained about 214 but were told the hotel was full and the guests could not be moved. we complained to management as we were leaving on Sunday and they were very sorry, but not as sorry as me, having spent quite a lot of money for poor quality service. we were offered nothing as recompense except 40 euros off another stay. i will never be back. the free glass of fizz on arrival didnt happen, I saw no evidence of anyone being offered a glass of anything. We left behind a bottle of champagne in the fridge in room 215 our mistake, but when our friends asked to retrieve it, it was gone !!!!!!

The hotel is trading on its past, it is great location and nice interiors and bedrooms, but there is a general lack of high quality attention to detail and management oversight. When we arrived for breakfast at 7am there was only one staff member and it was slow to get attention and service. The breakfast buffet was ok but below average for this category of hotel, it needed a real uplift. It was generally very average. I think for the cost of the hotel it was poor value
