Talbot Hotel Clonmel

Clean and modern hotel. Reception and gym staff were superb. Gym was very good with absolute top-of-the-range equipment - specifically two Concept 2 Rowers and one of each of the Watt Bike models. One C2 was out of batteries but both were immaculately clean and well serviced (185 Max DF for those who know) - as were both WattBikes. Room was good with very good shower although hot water needs to be a little hotter for a safe wet shave. Large bed was firm and comfortable. Food was the only thing that let it down. Poor choice of vegetarian options and breakfast was limited (not even porridge) and quality not great (dry). Because of the gym, we would DEFINITELY stay again - although eat elsewhere for meals and breakfast.

Everything was great the food was outstanding however the waiting staff on Saturday & Sunday evening let the team down Monday evening different staff & a different story top class .

5 stars for this hotel couldn’t find better. Staff food everything top class. Rooms are being updated but still lovely clean .

Another 4 star hotel which is really a refugee centre. No fridge available for the room, just like the Radisson in Limerick. Rooms habe no ac, which is becoming an issue with warming and 26° temperatures outside. Few paying guests. Refugees sitting outside the hotel entrance in pyjamas smoking in the mornings. Ugh. Bar not so bad, locals visiting helps give a bit of atmosphere. The upgrade programme seems to have stalled, unsurprisingly. Its just not a good fit, it can't be a desirable 4 star destination and an emergency accommodation centre at the same time. It's unfair on paying guests.

Good points - bed was comfortable, shower very hot and powerful, excellent internet speed. Bad points - no tea or coffee making facilities in room, windows open a crack, and room is very very hot. Bathroom floor tiles loose/broken. Toilet struggling to flush and sewage smell in bathroom. Dusty everything! All furniture old and marked, marked carpets. Television didn’t work! Remote control buttons had missing backs, so batteries just fell out. Couldn’t watch any tv! Tv is hooked up to a little internet thing, that didn’t work either. All just a bit old and tired and need a good clean. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Central to a few interesting places to visit. Areas for improvement/consideration: fridge in the room air-conditioner

Everything was good. The staff was excellent. The rooms are a little dated but clean and comfortable. Really enjoyed the breakfast.

The hotel was a solid comfy hotel with good service. We went as a family during the summer months and it’s gets fairly warm in the rooms and the windows only able to crack open, with no cooling units, the rooms got warm. Pool was limited to the children with rules that will only allow for children to stand still or swim quietly - a bit ridiculous. Otherwise, the hotel was comfortable and a great value. Fitness center was impressive, everything you need with multiple machines and fairly large for a hotel fitness center.

Restaurant is good, but room cleanness was terrible. Rug was extremely dirty and bathroom not very clean (hairs found inside the shower). We also had an incident where around midnight a hotel employee opened the door of our room and tried to get in. Apparently it was a mistake as was trying to get in another room but these sort of event should not have happened. Manager did apologize but it was definitely a bad experience.
