Had a one night stay here as we were visiting friends in the local are. I've good and and bad points about our stay. I'll start off with the bad. Far too expensive for what we got,our room wasn't the best. Very outdated and didn't feel clean. The sheets were clean and beds comfortable but the bathroom wasn't,broken tiles and rusty stains. The arm chair was disgusting,stained and old! Would not sit on it!! The shower was old and I just couldn't shower in it,it just didn't feel clean. Next morning when we were having breakfast there were a very disrupted guest who was verbally arguing with another guest, (I know you can't blame the hotel for a guests behavior)!!! However they let her carry on being disrupted for a very long time before they asked her to calm down in which didnt work. The guest contined to be verbally aggressive and no body enjoyed their breakfast due to this.and one lady expressed to me she felt uncomfortable. In my opinion the guest should have being asked to leave! The waiting staff were very young and fair enough probably didn't have the experience to deal with this,the management that was present kept telling the waiting staff what they were doing wrong in front of everybody where she should have done privately and it was only very trivial what she was criticising about she was more bothered about the trivial little things than the fact there was a very verbally disrupted guest!!!! Good points: breakfast was excellent,great choice and very fresh. Reception bar and waiting staff very friendly. Lovely bar and lovely reception area. But if the hotel is going to charge the prices they are charging in the future they really need to improve the standards of their rooms.

Clean, friendly, welcoming, comfortable ... You can't ask for more. This was the first night of our holiday in Ireland. It was brilliant, from the moment we arrived. The room was spotless, with a very comfortable bed. It was simply furnished in a personal way - nothing elaborate but everything clean and bright. Breakfast was a delight - the usual fare but all nicely presented and served in a very friendly way. This is B&B only, but it was perfect for what we wanted. Close to the beach too.

Lovely place. Clean and quaint. Very nice restaurant/bar area and nice rooms. No hot water in the morning in one of the rooms however. Good parking. Next to golf club in the countryside so nice fresh air.

The front desk is very good, the breakfast is good, there is a Christmas tree at the door, and the children can't bear to leave after playing for a long time. Breakfast is good, many people come to hold a wedding in the castle

Just back from our annual overnight stay at Pillo hotel and another great stay. We go as a family of 5 with 3 children under 10, each year and always book a one night stay with emerald park tickets included as it works out the best value for us. This allows us to travel down at our leisure, have dinner and a relaxing evening before getting an early start to hit the park the next day. This years’ trip was excellent as we have found it to be every year. The hotel is located close to emerald park, maybe a 5 min drive, so it is really handy location wise. The family rooms vary depending on availability when you book, sometimes it can be smaller rooms, still able to sleep 5 but without a lot of extra space, and other times it can be the more spacious family rooms which can easily accommodate 5 and provide extra space. The more spacious rooms are naturally better when travelling with children but anytime we have stayed, whichever room type we have been in, has been comfortable and clean. Reception staff are always really helpful and although the hotel is always busy, they take the time to make sure you have everything you need. The Time restaurant on site is a lovely restaurant with friendly staff and a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. The menu had just recently been changed and there were some other changes to the restaurant such as the open view of the kitchen which was a nice change. We had a 3 course family meal and it was some of the nicest food I have eaten out. The evening menu had something for everyone, lots of choice for adults and children and the quality of the food was amazing. Big thanks to the waiting staff including Aaron, Ciara, Jessica, Evie and Oxana (hope I haven’t left anyone out!) for such wonderful service and going out of their way to make sure we had a lovely evening. They were busy and flat out working but nothing was too much trouble. We didn’t make it to the swimming pool on this visit but this is also a great part of the hotel and the kids love it. We will be back next summer again and will look forward to it knowing this is a consistently good hotel and has everything we need for a family getaway!
