Stayed in the Hotel for public holiday weekend at the start of Feb. Hotel had just opened after the winter break so I am being considerate of some start up issues ! I also understand the hotel was sold a few years ago so has a very different(more down market) feel tomit now. Firstly there is no bar. The lovely bar at the front of the hotel last time we stayed(10 years ago) is now fully closed and blocked off. It looks like they started some work on it but then stopped. This is a major issue as there is therefore nowhere to sit and rest other than your room. Reception is soulless and doesn't provide any relaxation. A temporary "bar" is setup in the hall or "function room". It is awful and has the feel of a 1970 school hall. A massive industrial blower met us to generate heat. Tables setup like an exam hall. Shocking. People eating in their coats shivering. Would be better off closed We stayed in a refurb'd room on the second floor which was recently decorated and very nice. This was the best part of the stay. Water in the shower was not hot enough on first night but after that was fine. Bed was very comfy. No noise and we slept great on both nights. Breakfast last time we were there was great(10 years ago). Now it's a basic buffet. No fresh cereal just packs of processed cereal. Fruit was limited, melon was nice, rest was tinned stuff. Fry was ok, plentiful but quite creasy. No selection of bread, just basic white or brown "sliced pan'. Small pastries were snapped up by the hoards of tenagers (from the apartments) so there was never enough. When the next batch came out if you weren't on them in 2 minutes they were hoovered up. On the second morning I was ready so dived on them the minute they appeared ! There was one of those automatic pancake mix machines spurting out some glutenous stodge. Thing should be binned. The coffee was not good and if you want a proper Americano or capuchino this costs you extra, which is ridiculous. Our weekend included one dinner in the Nephin restaurant and this was really good. We both love fish and it was great. Service was excellent and portions were very good and lots of well presented veg. Bottle of wine was lovely and reasonably priced. Dessert was good also. We used the pool which had not heated up fully, but was ok. The new suana is only ok as the door doesn't close properly so the heat escapes and a draft comes in. Overall the hotel is now a 3 star and not the same as the old Mulranny. So we paid 4 star prices and got 3 stars. Maybe it was opening issues but they need to up their game, reopen the lounge/bar, close the dance hall and server proper coffee and include it as standard. If you are looking for a nice nearby place to get food and experience a real bar you should go to Nevins Newfield in...lovely and cosy with real fires, great food and atmosphere.
