Maldron Hotel Portlaoise

Maldron Hotel Portlaoise

8/10 Good
"The pool is shared with a gym and for folks who are from the US you need a swim cap. The desk staff was perfectly helpful but there is no information about amenities in the room and they don’t provide any info about what you can do in the hotel. The front desk ladies all seemed brand new to the job though. Room was nice though."

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and were very impressed with the overall experience. We had two rooms, and both were spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. The hotel truly exceeded our expectations and offered more than we would typically expect from a 4-star hotel. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. They made us feel genuinely cared for and were always happy to assist with any questions or requests. They also gave us wonderful recommendations on places to visit and things to see in their beautiful country. I am so grateful that we listened to their advice, as some of those experiences became memories that will last forever. The location was also very convenient, only a 10-minute walk from the Irish Rail station, which made traveling to and from Dublin very easy. The breakfast was excellent, with a great selection of fresh and delicious options. It was a wonderful way to start each day before heading out to explore. The hotel also offered exceptional room service. Returning to the hotel after a long day of sightseeing truly felt like coming home—it was always relaxing, comfortable, and welcoming. Overall, we had an excellent experience and would definitely stay here again. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and welcoming place to stay!"
