Stayed here for the second year running and so much has changed. There was a nice tented summer seating area outside in the back courtyard with heaters for the chilly evenings, however this is removed and made into extra car parking. The hotel room We stayed in only had a shower and no bath. Like all hotels they are now overrun with Ukrainians and the bread and butter visitor gets the left overs. The tourist industry is dead in the water

Good amount of parking out the back although a little tricky finding it, and I was Locked out one evening, it was tricky getting the gate opened. Room was comfortable if pretty tired. Decent shower, a good flow and hot water. There are a couple of bars and restaurants attached to the hotel but run independently, so no charge gi g to the room.

Farnham Arms was cosy and inviting. The rooms were very comfortable and the new bathrooms were a joy. We dined in the People’s Restaurant and enjoyed very high quality food. Hotel is family run and you can see the effort input to ensure guests have a wonderful time.

Quaint and interesting older hotel that hosts weekly traditional Irish jam sessions in their dining room with local participants. The manager was kind enough to coordinate the loan of a guitar for me when we travelled to nearby towns for a few days. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the room was clean and comfortable.

Good: Central location, walk to restaurants, shops and bars safely. Free parking in secured lot. Cooked breakfast included. Friendly staff. Traditional Irish music on Sunday afternoons and a good pub across the street, Blessings, to watch soccer. Only complaint: It was a hot week in August and the room was very warm; tiny windows only opened a crack, no A/C or fan. Staff were friendly and helpful. The building is a bit worn. Good restaurant and lounge on ground floor.

Un hotel historico, sin embargo tambien el olor lo es, te hace saber que en el hotel se fumaba. Los baños están reformados, pero la limpieza no fue la mejor. Son esos hoteles que no quieres tocar nada o caminar. En el hotel entero y la zona donde duermes tiene una alfombra que muestra los ultimos 60 años de historia y hace tiempo que no se hace una limpieza profunda. Las sábanas eran recientes pero en un colchon que necesita ser jubilado. En general la amabilidad de algunas personas del hotel fue buena. Quiza es normal para Irlanda.

A hotel of this cost, in todays world, should be reasonably comfortable. If there was competition they would go broke. Facilities poorly maintained and serviced w the cheapest things possible. The owner is obviously a v cheap person!
