This is wonderful hotel to stay in. Very clean, lovely bar/ restaurant area, gym & swimming pool but the stand out things are: a) the things for the kids to do, there is a huge list in the Dome next door, it keeps the kids & adults occupied for hours. the kids said they loved the kids club, was really great fun & the guys running it were superb, they couldn't say enough good things about them. And b) the staff. Everyone is so friendly & accommodating here, all day, in every part of the hotel, as well as over in the Dome. Carlow must be a very happy friendly place because the staff here are 2nd to none. We will be back.

Only stayed one night here(Sunday night)and was really impressed . Beautiful hotel and all its staff were very friendly and professional. Had a beautiful carvery lunch (roast turkey) it was delicious and plentiful and very reasonably priced. Breakfast in the morning was as good as I ever had in any hotel I've stayed. Will definitely be returning .

Overall it's pretty good. Sometimes the service was a little slow with staff chatting amongst themselves. Rooms were serviced very regularly to a good standard.

We were in Carlow for my grandchildrens christenings with 17 members of the family staying at The Talbot. Everything was top notch and the manager was a great laugh and extremely helpful. How can anyone give a poor review

Me and my family absolutely loved this hotel. It's so family friendly, plenty of nearby activities for the kids and swimming as well. All the staff are amazing. So friendly and accommodating. The food is so tasty and reasonable priced. The rooms are so comfortable and the beds are cosy. Shopping within walking distance. Would highly recommend for family getaways.

Great value, great location, great staff!
We stayed at the Talbot Hotel on the Girly Getaway Package which ended up being absolutely fantastic value for money. The hotel itself is warm,clean and welcoming. It's a great location because it's near shops if you need to pick up any supplies and only a 5 minute drive away from lovely walks like The Oak Park Forest Walk and Delta Sensory gardens. The rooms are clean and cosy. There was a group of 5 of us, so we had to book separate rooms but the hotel actually put us in two rooms that had an internal door so we could technically all be in the same room which was really considerate of them. The afternoon tea, dinner and breakfast served could not be faulted, quick service and good quality food. The staff were really friendly too and looked like they enjoyed their jobs. Absolutely lovely stay totally recommend
