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.

She brought us two different lamps that did work, but it would've been nice to have the third one. She said, "You like your lamps, do you?" Bathroom garbage had been left from previous guests. Street traffic and party revelers awakened me late into the wee hours of the morning. Not my favorite stay in Ireland.

So, our group had to venture to a nearby pub to order some food. We brought back takeout for a couple of young parents in our group that stayed behind with their baby. THEY WERE THEN BANISHED TO THE SITTING ROOM TO EAT THEIR TAKEOUT. Again, nobody was allowed to bring a morsel of food into their bar that was NOT serving food. There was hardly anyone there!! Just not a warm first impression. We were exhausted and starving, and that was a dumb rule. The woman at the front desk was not particularly pleasant, and she was also the bartender. Our room was sub par, cigarette burns in the tub. No extra toilet paper in the room when we ran out. And the broken thermostat was blinking the whole stay, begging for a filter change...gross. The china was also dirty at breakfast. The only pluses I will give to this place: the sitting and dining rooms were decorated well and the OTHER staff (NOT the receptionist/bartender) were pleasant. Owner also seemed nice.

Came and stayed here. If you want to fit 3 in a room, the room is all the way in the back. It is…read morequite a walk and there's no accessible entrance for disabled with stairs and long hallways. Arrived at 6pm and there's a party occurring. It is now almost midnight and the guests and music are loud. Per the front desk, the party will not end until 2am roughly. This feels unacceptable and the reception did not provide another room as an option. Also, the window in our room does not properly close. Yes, i understand how to use the devices at the window. The window is crooked at the top so it does not seal completely to shut out noise. My room is next to the party and it is hard to sleep. Clean hotel, but I am not sure that I will be back.

This hotel was part of my Globus tour. The town is small and so is the hotel but I loved it. The…read moreroom I got was newly renovated with a faint fresh paint smell, in a nice way. 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!

Took me two minutes to walk across the street to the airport in the morning and they have a clearly marked path which was appreciated since I was traveling alone and it was dark still when I left.
