Talbot Hotel

We recently stayed in the Talbot hotel in Carlow, the evening before attending a wedding in Ballykealy.
When booking, I had requested a quiet room , at the end of the corridor if at all possible. A bonus would have been the top floor.
The receptionist Tufah was so gracious and welcoming. I was delighted that the hotel had made a note of my request and accommodated me in a room as requested. I appreciate that this isn’t always possible so it was wonderful. As a particularly poor sleeper, it was important to me. I was so happy to be accommodated on the top floor!
The room was spotless and spacious.
I loved the amount of space in the bathroom, especially in terms of places to put toiletries etc.

We dined in the bar and the food was delicious and plentiful. 
Breakfast the next morning was delicious, with plenty of choice.
I was really impressed with the hotel and left looking forward to a return stay two nights later.
Our second stay didn’t disappoint. 
Julius on reception assured me of a quiet room- and that is what we got.
We arrived quite late in the evening and Martin, the night porter quickly and efficiently checked us in.
Our room was a mirror image of the previous stay, and again I slept really well.
In the early morning my husband visited the leisure centre and enjoyed his swim. He found the staff to be friendly and helpful.
This is something that we really appreciated during our two brief stays- courteous and friendly staff who excel at their job.
We both look forward to staying there again in the future. 😊

Our hotel experience
The hotel staff were excellent. The food was very good. The room was comfortable (accessible room) but could do with refresh. The carpet was quite stained in places, the tiles on floor of shower were sharp around the drain, the shower taps were roughly fixed to shower wall and very difficult to turn off, there was no air-conditioning in bedroom, no safe, and key card kept failing. The hotel also offered an indoor pool. However, it was always so busy as the hotel opens it up to non - residents. It was mainly full of children so not relaxing.

Nice hotel, good service.

There was a party on in a function room the night we where staying and we could hear all the noise from the room our stay was ok.

Great food, Great Service and Highly R commended
The Talbot is a great hotel and friendly and helpful staff. The bar and restaurant food is excellent and well worth a visit.

Friendly and helpful staff
Super frienfly staff from redeption right through to the bar and restaurant. Great service.

Well done to a great team.

A Treat of a Stay
From arrival until departure the team at the Talbot I found the team to be warm, professional and attuned. Their service appeared effortlessly seamless.
The bedroom was spacious and I had a lovely sleep in my super comfy bed, on gorgeous pillows. Breakfast was generous and tasty.

The corridors to the bedroom could do with a refresh but other than that the Talbot Hotel was a treat of a stay!

Great place to stay and relax
A great hotel with fantastic service. The food in the recently refurbished bar and restaurant is delicious and well worth a visit. We will definitely be back.
