Four Seasons Hotel & Leisure Club Monaghan, Monaghan

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, unfortunately, were below standard, with issues like a bad smell, cold temperatures, and cleanliness concerns. However, the lovely garden view and comfortable bed were positives. The service was lacking, and the location was convenient but lacked seating in the foyer. The dining options were good, though nothing extraordinary. Overall, it was a somewhat disappointing stay with some redeeming qualities.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious and had plenty of extra blankets and pillows if needed. It was a great hotel overall, although a bit smaller than expected with just a small bin in the bathroom. Despite half of Ireland partying to the wee hours, it remained comfy and quiet, ticking every other box for me.

The hotel was directly above the function room, which made it very loud at times. Unfortunately, my room had no view, and breakfast was not included in the price, which I found expensive compared to The Four Seasons. On the bright side, the room itself was lovely, with a big modern bathroom featuring a walk-in shower.
