Don’t just take our word for it, see what a previous US guest had to say about their stay:

‘We travelled to Ireland for our grandsons christening, reception staff were very helpful, giving us a room on a lower floor. The decor is modern as are the rooms, the beds were comfortable. The hotel is central to the town with a convenient car park which is free if you have breakfast. We had a lovely time and hope that any of you who stay here have no complaints. There is a swimming pool that looked inviting but closed 6.30 so we left it too late to have a swim’ – Tripadvisor – April 2019

Access to The Midlands from Dublin Airport

Located just over an hour from Dublin Airport, Aer Lingus offers direct Dublin flights from many US cities, including Boston, Miami, New York, Atlanta, Dallas, Denver and many more destinations. A huge advantage of travelling back to the US from Ireland is that you will pass through U.S. Preclearance facility. Dublin Airport is one of only a handful of airports outside North America that offers this facility. The benefit is that having cleared USCBP, passengers arriving in the US are treated as domestic arrivals, allowing them to avoid immigration queues, pick up their bags and go. Car hire companies are also located at all airports.
