Touring around Ireland and visited Ennis on the 21st Jan 06. Wanted to stay central so checked into the Queens Hotel. The lovely receptionist informed us about the nightclub on the premises. What Irish Craic we had!. First we ate steak in Cruises Bar. For the quantity, the price was very reasonable. The Bar maid informed us of Traditional Irish Music in the bar that evening. We of course returned and enjoyed it tremendously. We then ventured for the nightclub, which was great fun. The Queens hotel is a very relaxed hotel, where customers can enjoy the Irish Tradition, Irish Cuisine, Craic agus Ceol. Highly Recommended.

WARNING,Do not stay at this hotel.
I stayed at the Queens hotel last year, what a disaster. The room was stale,damp and dirty, asked to be changed but the hotel was full, full? how can a dump like this be full.The shower did not work just as well for there was no hot water. Got into bed and noticed the ceiling was coming down.
Eventually getting to sleep and there is pandemonium outside,actual fighting and girls screaming, the time now is 02.45 am. I just laid there for ages listening to half of Ireland do battle.
Breakfast? forget it, there was no staff, they must have been at the fight, I mean the disco with all the others last night.
Please read the other reviews it really is that bad.

This is supposedly a 3 star Hotel but did not deserve this rating when I stayed there
Bar, food and restaurant all good and good service
Room however: hole in quilt cover, stained blankets, marks ++ on walls and wallpaper removed. Main complaint - ceiling in bathroom had mould stains and as a result room smelt of damp.
This was my second room at the Hotel as moved from first which was directly above a late night bar
Very disappointed - no way was this a 3 star Hotel judging by the room
Have sent comments to the Hotel and waited a few weeks for no reply
Worth others knowing this

We needed to stay in Ennis for one night and this was the only hotel in the town available ...(I wonder why????)

First room had large damp black areas on the walls, smelt of must and had the smallest window I had ever seen. I asked to be changed and I was put into a room which appeared okay. As the evening went on, it began to get very cold and I telephoned down to enquire about the heating as the radiators were freezing. I was told that someone would be up immediately. No one came.
I phoned again and was told that the heating was gone throughout the hotel and they were waiting for a plummer. Another hour passed and I went out to the corridor and the radiators there were very hot. So, I phoned again and a very obnoxious receptionist told me that the heating was now fixed. NOT IN MY ROOM!!!
I decided to get into bed to keep warm but the sheets were cold and damp.
My boyfriend arrived to the hotel at this stage and was told there was no hot water for a shower and that they couldnot guarantee hot water in the morning!!
The manager of the hotel arrived to the room with a screw driver to "fix" the heating, and then told us that he had an electric heater we could borrow!! Good God!
We checked out immediately and stayed in a hotel outside of town.
Cannot believe that there are still hotels like this in the country.
Absolutely vile!
