Turns out having consistent amenities like shampoo, soap, and conditioner arent a constant normal thing in hotels. Nor is air conditioning. This hotel had both those things AND delicious hotel food. Maybe it's hard to find food to fit the budget of the included meals in a tour group, so Ive been eating some version of chicken and mash at every meal. This time I went rogue and paid for my own meal and was treated to a delicious braised beef dish and toffee pudding. Best meal I had on the whole trip was from a hotel and I still think about that braised beef. Oh yeah, the view is pretty good if you get a waterside view room. I unfortunately got a view of the roof, but I won't let that deter me from giving this place 5 stars.

The weekend we were there, the hotel was quite busy and was unable to find a spot to park the second night and ended up paying to park across the street. We didn't know until after we paid to park that, according to the front desk, the spots out front of the hotel that say 2 hour parking can be ignored and are able to be parked all night. Besides parking, everything else was great. Staff are very nice and we enjoyed our room. The view was also really nice of River Shannon. The hotel is a short walk to King John's castle, St. Mary's Cathedral, The Milk Market, and various bars and food. It's a great place to call home base for a few nights. I'd definitely stay again if visiting Limerick again.

The room was sparkling clean. The shower was hot with good shower pressure. The bed was comfortable too. I liked that there was a furnace instead of Central heating because it produces a cozier heat that isn't as dry. It is a few minutes walk to town center, though the stores closed at 6 pm. Breakfast was quite nice- best hash brown and yogurt. I doubt I will ever be in this area again but I highly recommend this hotel.

We paid extra for the breakfast, and thought it was really worth it- a high class affair for breakfast with good food and service. The gym and pool are just OK- gym is decent but pool is small, hot tub was out of service. The parking is a little bit of a mess- there is valet, but you have to go in and find them. If you do the self park, you have to drive around to the shopping mall across the street and park in the 5th floor or higher, which can be a 10 minute excursion on its own. That being said, the hotel is in an excellent location in central Limerick, so hopefully you can just walk a lot of places. Would definitely stay here again!

Hands down the BEST hotel we stayed in during our honeymoon in Ireland! This place is…read moreprofessional, clean, inviting, and felt like home away from home. With a restaurant and bar on the premises, the gBK, this hotel was completely ideal for all of our needs! Before arriving, I had requested a room on the 7th floor that would be quiet and away from any noises of the restaurant, with a view of Connelly Street. And what a view it was! One night, my hubby and I ordered room service and just watched the sunset over the city because it was just that gorgeous. We ordered two Guinness of course, a plate of fish and chips, and their Irish burger, which was colossal! The fish and chips were amazing with the malted vinegar (which we are now addicted to) and his burger was finger licking fun, topped with onion rings and cheese. Our room was modern and fully updated with a flat screen tv, desk, coffee making set, refrigerator, phone, and a full bathroom with wonderful water pressure! A huge plus! The king size bed was comfortable, and they supplied us with extra pillows in one of the closets. Plenty of space to move around comfortably for two. We made frequent stops back to the room while we were site-seeing, just because of its wonderful location. Even if we went back to the room to use the toilets and just lay down for 10 minutes, it was well worth it. We ate one night or two downstairs in the restaurant and had a wonderfully romantic dinner by a window seat. Since it was fairly early for dinner, we decided to splurge and go for the three course menu for two with a bottle of house wine for 60 Euros. We had the beautifully prepared and flavorful vegetable soup with coriander to start. It was smooth and creamy - really perfect for a cold, damp day. For the main entree, my hubby had the Spinach & Ricotta Tortellini because he was craving pasta for the longest time, and I opted for the Grilled Shannon Salmon. Both dishes were very satisfying and presented beautifully. If you don't come to Limerick for anything else, I would strongly suggest coming here at least for a day to enjoy and feel a little luxe; we all deserve it.

The Dunraven Arms Hotel sells a dream: old-world charm, four-star comfort, timeless elegance. What…read moreit delivers: no AC, no safety, no transparency, and a firm belief that if they ignore a problem long enough, you'll go away. I booked five rooms in April 2025 for a family trip. All five were unbearably hot. There's no air conditioning, and nowhere - not once - do they disclose that. During a heatwave, we were handed tiny plastic desk fans that felt more symbolic than functional. "The heat isn't on," staff said, helpfully pressing buttons on a thermostat that wasn't connected to anything. Performance art, not hospitality. But the heat wasn't the worst part. One bed had exposed staples and metal pins embedded in the headboard - right where someone's head would rest. I took photos. Raised it with management. Their response? "That's not representative." Which is strange, considering every single room we booked had issues. What you're paying for here is a dated property clinging to its past reputation, hoping guests won't look too closely. Tour groups come and go. Independent travelers? We're disposable. The one saving grace: the bar and waitstaff. They were attentive, warm, and clearly doing their best in a place that doesn't deserve them. I tried to resolve this privately. Gave them chances. Gave them time. They offered a token refund and shrugged off everything else. So here's what I'll say to the next traveler considering this place: If you enjoy sweating through the night, sleeping near embedded hardware, and being told your experience didn't happen the way you say it did - book the Dunraven. If not? Stay literally anywhere else.
