I stayed at the Hand Hotel 2 weeks ago while on the way from Dublin to Cardiff. It's location is nearly perfect, right on the river, and the town is really quaint with some cute shops, pubs, and restaurants. There's a really cool horse drawn boat tour that you can take which is just a short walk from the hotel.
The rooms are nice and there are huge windows that open up so you can enjoy the fresh air. The wifi service isn't great. We couldn't get the signal in our room at all during our stay. They do have several chairs and a nice couch in the lobby where you can enjoy the free wifi. They offer a delicious cooked breakfast with both hot and cold options, and coffee & tea. There is a really nice riverside patio where you can relax and enjoy a nice beverage.
I heard that this hotel is haunted with ghosts but I didn't experience anything strange during my stay, thankfully!! read more
