Tara Bridge Castle

location is great. view from cafe. owner was very friendly

bathroom was not comfortable, other personal don’t know at all what customer service is

A great location but sadly tat is the ONLY good thing about this place. Not a pleasant stay. There was no warm welcome. when I climbed off my motorcycle, I asked the owner ‘hello is this the Tara Bridge Castle?’ A blank look greeted me. I showed the booking on my phone, and she eventually said yes this is it! Afterwards I noticed there was in fact a small sign that said Tara Bridge Castle. Why she didn’t straight away welcome me I don’t know. I was asked to pay in advance literally before I had even taken my motorcycle jacket off. The hotel on this site says ‘cash only’ but they DO have the ability to take a card, as I payed for a beer this way.

The room was pretty dreadful. Tiny, the double bed took up the whole room, so you had to climb on from the foot of the bed. The shower room door could only open about a third of the way because it was all so cramped, meaning you had to practically stand sideways to get in. There were no cups, and the toilet seat broken. I have stayed in many hotels on my motorcycle travels, and this was the worst experience. The breakfast food was fine, though the coffee, rather reluctantly brought to me from the owner, was filter coffee that had not been filtered!!. Gritty, and a cup full of sludge at the bottom. Even when leaving in the morning, and returning the key, I was heading for the reception area, and one of the staff, who was sitting outside, said ‘I’ll take the key’ and he just sat there waiting for me to walk all the way over to him. There was no ‘I hope you enjoyed your stay’ or even a ‘goodbye’. Dreadful place.

Location

extrem small room

I had such a lovely stay!! Don't miss to try the zipline ☺️

Everything was more than perfect. Peaceful and simply amazing

The owner upgraded us to a larger apartment with a kitchen. The bathroom and bedroom are ok. Very warm when we arrived in cold night. The breakfast was ok. Parking in front of the apartment.

There was a dead scorpion on the plates. A little expensive even with the free upgrade.

Breakfast was good

Not much to do after dinner

The staff was friendly enough

The Wifi didn't work at all
