Shandon Bells Guest House

Central location, nicely renovated big house next to river, breakfast area on terrasse next to the river, well equipped rooms, very nice staff, cleaned the rooms daily.

The rooms were rather small and in the rooms under the roof you could not stand upright in some places.

Dainty . Good location - next to UCC. Nice room and clean . Parking available although limited - was given an alternative parking space next door

Great location, good breakfast available for extra cost, hospitable staff.

Dated rooms, requires renovation, although matches price point.

We selected this property based on location and offered parking. We were not disappointed on either…albeit that parking was REALLY tight. Only 5-minutes walking distance to town, so it was a nice stroll to all of the fun action!

Check-in is weird. Not once were we able to go inside. Their (very) friendly staff always met us at the door and we went outside. No reception area that we know of. The worst part about this property, was our room. The bed was SO hard, it was like sleeping on a piece of plywood. Then you thrown in super thin (2 inch) pillows, and a noisy street, you have the worst nights sleep ever! There are lots of B&B’s in the area to chose from, so may want to avoid this one if you value comfortable sleeping. Oh, and the bathroom cube was terrible as well - tons of water on the floor after each shower. Very poor design.
