Great accommodations and convenient location.

Room was clean and roomy - even had a skylight over the bed! There’s a huge pub restaurant on the ground floor with a huge variety of food and beverage options. There’s also a village with many restaurants and pubs within a few blocks. Parking isn’t much at the property but you can park for free on the street after 6pm. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

Lovely place to stay instead of Dublin before our flight back home. Nice town. Wonderful castle, nice room and can’t beat the food prices at the restaurant.

The parking was very tight but free for guests. I was a bit worried when I saw the bar downstairs but the rooms were lovely and quiet. The location was handy to the airport and an easy walk to the castle and shops. The beds were very comfortable and the shower was clean and hot. We bought breakfast which was a very good deal. I would stay here again.

The room was incredible, the staff were wonderful and extremely helpful when we had an issue with our shower. Our last night we tried the food and bar both were great! We hope to stay again when we plan our next trip to Ireland!

Clean, comfortable and stylish rooms with a decent sized bathroom and a lift to get to the upper floor. Bathroom also had a tub/shower combo You'll be extremely lucky if you can park at the facility. If not, you have to park about a block away. Ordering food/drinks in the bar/restaurant has to be done from a QR code on the table. Menu is limited and you're virtually invisible to the staff while sitting at your table

The Old Borough hotel rooms are above a bar, but despite being a Thursday evening, the rooms were quite quiet. They are away from the drinking customers. They were clean, the staff were courteous and helpful. You go to the bar to check in, and that seemed strange at first, but worked just fine. The clerk offered to book us a taxi for the next morning and the taxi arrived early, which was great. The only difficulty was the lack of parking for checking in, as we first checked in before dropping our rental car off. The parking lot was totally jam packed with bar/restaurant guests. There was no place reserved for hotel guests to park and check in. We got it worked out, but it was very stressful, and included me having to make maybe a 9-point turn to re-orient the car. It also included two random passers-by volunteering to help coordinate the traffic. I'm not kidding! Those two were so nice and helpful!! We left too early to sample breakfast.

There is no actual "front desk" to check in at. The bar/restaurant handles that. The staff was very helpful during check un and during our one night stay. 10-15 minutes away from airport. Restaurant food was mediocre in quality. Prices for beer/wine and mixed drinks were very inexpensive, the lowest I have seen anywhere. Room was no frills but comfortable. If you need a place for a night or two arriving/leaving Dublin airport this will do it. Parking is limited.

If you stay here make sure not to have a room over the bar. Our room was quiet but others in our group said it was very loud. Staff was great, food was so so. Overall I would rate it a 7.

They have a great bar with excellent quality and prices. We found the outside area of the hotel (there are tables to eat) with a lot of trash on the floor. The room was a little uncomfortable. The staff were great. Maybe the place is not for foreigners.
