Relaxing Stay with Excellent Service

efficient setuppolite staffadded touchconnectivity issue
I appreciated the efficient breakfast setup, where staff asked for preferred times. I enjoyed the full Irish breakfast, a great start to each day. The dining staff were polite and accommodating and made each meal enjoyable. I found the complimentary prosecco added a touch of luxury to the thermal garden experience.
The Wi-Fi service was limited to the corridor. It did not extend into my room. I hope this connectivity issue is resolved soon to better accommodate guests.
