卡羅泰爾伯特飯店

We recently stayed in the Talbot hotel in Carlow, the evening before attending a wedding in Ballykealy. When booking, I had requested a quiet room , at the end of the corridor if at all possible. A bonus would have been the top floor. The receptionist Tufah was so gracious and welcoming. I was delighted that the hotel had made a note of my request and accommodated me in a room as requested. I appreciate that this isn’t always possible so it was wonderful. As a particularly poor sleeper, it was important to me. I was so happy to be accommodated on the top floor! The room was spotless and spacious. I loved the amount of space in the bathroom, especially in terms of places to put toiletries etc. We dined in the bar and the food was delicious and plentiful.  Breakfast the next morning was delicious, with plenty of choice. I was really impressed with the hotel and left looking forward to a return stay two nights later. Our second stay didn’t disappoint.  Julius on reception assured me of a quiet room- and that is what we got. We arrived quite late in the evening and Martin, the night porter quickly and efficiently checked us in. Our room was a mirror image of the previous stay, and again I slept really well. In the early morning my husband visited the leisure centre and enjoyed his swim. He found the staff to be friendly and helpful. This is something that we really appreciated during our two brief stays- courteous and friendly staff who excel at their job. We both look forward to staying there again in the future. 😊

Chambre spacieuse et très propre . Réception, personnel très agréable et professionnel. Restaurant de bonne qualité avec un personnel très à l'écoute des clients. Un excellent séjour.

I booked two days before arrival as a solo traveller. I received an email the morning of arrival to tell me that the leisure Centre wasn't open. I called them to be told that it was closed , probably for the duration of my two night stay. I explained that I was unhappy with this and only booked because I wanted to use the pool etc. Eventually they made enquiries and organised a complimentary use of the pool in another hotel. However I had to book a time and it was only available until 6.30 pm..I would have liked to have use in the evening. The only option open to me was to use it the following morning until lunchtime, as it closed for lunch. This conversation was going on as I was travelling to the hotel. They upgraded me to a suite, which was nice. Breakfast was not included in my package. I ordered breakfast , room service, on my last day and as there was no pen in the room, I had to use my lipstick to mark what I wanted on the list. I didn't ask for a full Irish breakfast but I got one. And was asked to pay for it on the spot!! There was no butter or jam with the breakfast tray. And when it did arrive I was asked to pay again! Before leaving I paid for a full Irish breakfast as I was told that it was what I got! I arrived at the hotel feeling very annoyed and left feeling the same way. Very disappointed with my stay and would recommend calling before you book to ensure that facilities are available as they do not update their website.
