Our stay was fantastic, the only very minor thing that irked was that we had to queue for breakfast, he hotel does clearly inform guests of the peak times it was just difficult to understand as there was plently of vacant seating after we queued and it was 100% self service. We look forward to visiting again.
Fantastic evening. Only fault was seemed to be a bit under staffed at breakfast.
Up to this hotel we had been blessed in staying in some of Ireland's older manors and establishments. Limerick was more know for the Strand hotel so we gave it a try.
We were very happy that we did, the hotel was large as well as our room. We picked to stay in a room that had a view of the bay and a balcony. The room was nice with several couches and TV'S, but the real gym of the room was the balcony. It was behind glass so while not climate controlled was extremely nice with a glass of beer and a blanket. My wife and I could have slept outside it was so nice in fact.
My only complaints would be things that I believe some of these could be easily fixed.
- Our room appeared to have had recent water damage in the ceiling. While it was not "ugly" it was above the bed and was not "pretty" either.
- I believe this is a European thing, but the shower in our massive bathroom was tiny you almost could not move around.
- The contentintal breakfast was nice, but for the most part was very "large" chain in what it offered. I think their needs to be a way that guests with certain rooms might get cooked meals of choice.
Several good resturants are within walking distance. Good hotel for sure.
The staff, facilities, food and service are excellent. It's in the middle of Limerick city's historical area. The city is readily accessible and is a couple of minutes walk from the hotel.
I use this hotel as my local pub, so you would expect me to generally approve, If I did not I would not use it. Neither staff nor management have asked me to write a review and I have made the statement above so as to ensure I am not accused of a conflict of interest. I cannot speak for the quality of the accommodation.
I do feel however that the hotel offers an excellent restaurant and a fine bar. The bar also offers an informal food service and the attached cafe has an excellent river view.
The WiFi on offer (free) is the fastest I have experienced in any hotel anywhere and I use it often. Sports programmes are available in the bar but are not obtrusive if you require quietness. The staff are friendly and eager to help.
I thoroughly recommend the Sunday Lunch Buffet that offers excellent food at a very reasonable price.
Food was quite nice, staff were gas and helpful. Quality hotel with clean facilities.
The hotel just needed that extra "oomph"
Great accommodations! Beautiful rooms with an awesome view of the city. Restaurant, bar and a well equipped gym are all available onsite.
Hotel was nice and in a good location. We had a room with a river view that was great. Room was clean and comfortable.

This review is not based on a stay. I wish it was.
Myself and friends stopped in for a drink on our way to the home of Munster Rugby. We had some drinks and some food. Staff were friendly and for a hotel bar we found the prices no more expensive than any other place we had been during our weekend.
Great staff, excellent service, really comfortable modern hotel in a wonderful location overlooking the river only a few minutes walk from the city centre.
As an Irishman I am ashamed to say that this was my 1st time in Limerick. Limerick is always the subject of bad press but i can now say i am a fan.I went to Limerick for a conference and stayed at the Strand. it was a beautyful Hotel the staff were great and very helpful. We attended a function at the Strand and i would recommend it for anyone looking to have a function of any sort. Five stars Limerick, a lovely city and 5 stars for the Strand Hotel i will be back.
Friendly & helpful staff, good facilities and great food. They can cater for all occasions.
This is the place to stay in Limerick. The staff is very friendly. The breakfast buffet is incredibly delicious and includes all the staples of an Irish breakfast. The rooms are clean and modern. Try booking a suite, they are amazing! Views of the river, King John's castle, and all from an enclosed balcony (no better place for an evening glass of wine). Will be returning.
Beautiful and well located hotel. Staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Christina at the reception desk is a fabulous lady and made special arrangements to make our stay even better.
Booked this Hotel for my Husband's Birthday. Stayed for two nights would have loved to have stayed longer. Hotel location is perfect and just a short stroll accross the bridge to the city centre.we were upgraded to a fabulous suite over looking the river,which made my Husband birthday so special. When we returned to our room after a visit to John's castle,a plate with chocolate sweets and happy birthday wrote on plate was so touching.Thank you. Hotel is spotless and all the staff are all so helpful and lovely.Breakfast was lovely,so much to choose from.food in bar was gorgeous. Would recommend this Hotel to stay in limerick.Thank you for making my Husband birthday so special. Hope to return again.
Excellent modern hotel. Big clean room with independent shower and bath. Secure room card access to floor through lift only.
A beautiful hotel with in walking distance of the city.
Rooms are class view from the breakfast room over the river Shannon. Chef cooks breakfast in front of you. Well worth a stay
Great lication in the heart of Limerick city with fantastic views of the Shannon and King Johns Castle.
Was in there last night getting teas and coffees, met with Chris and Kevin, 2 absolute gentlemen, could not do enough for us, totally appreciate their manner and professionalism, credit to the strand hotel having 2 fine gentlemen working there at the hour that we dropped in, 2.10 am ....

Room was nice and clean...TV didn t work and several power outlet didn t work too. Wi-Fi was fair, but not great.
Good hotel, they offer very complete breakfasts the very spacious room just lack conditioner
By far, the best hotel, facilities and service I've had in all the places I've stayed in Ireland!
I attended a work Christmas party in The Strand hotel Dec 12 2019 . The banqueting room was beautifully decorated , the staff were excellent and the food was delicious and piping hot . Overall a fantastic venue which lead to a wonderful night .
Rooms are great. Restaurant and bar service needs work.
Excellent food, amongst the best I've had in the west of Ireland. Very surprised. Staff are super friendly too and it's a nice bar, very well decorated and plenty of room.
Very nice, modern hotel with excellent staff and good food.
This place was in a nice location and convenient. Lobby was pretty, but lobby staff were not the most welcoming. The room (executive level) was not that clean and a service employee used a key and walked into our room without knocking, with the intention of "leaving an info pamphlet!" That was unnerving. Even if he thought the room was vacant, he didn't use a discretionary knock! Carpet was stained. Throw pillows and chairs looked worn and soiled. The view of the river was worthy of complement. The food buffet on executive floor was rather sad and didn't seem very hygienic. Overall, I wouldn't return if other choices available.
Lovely and central, staff were efficient and helpful. Beds were amazing.
Wonderful visit. Lovely views of the city from the suite at the top. Food was nice too.
The rooms are large with a view of the Shannon. Some rooms have a great conservatory. Furniture and carpet are partially worn.
We had teribble experience with more than 10 hotels in Limerick. It was 3 of us, we had a problem with a car so we couldnt keep driving to our destination, and we try to find a room cause it was midnight, and we couldnt get any room, all of them told us they are fully booked. In this hotel stuff thought that we are drunk, but we were just exhausted and looking for place to sleep.
Vistied in December for a rugby match,Im still thinking about the incredible value for money, excellent service and amazing food. All the staff where friendly and professional. The hotel is warm, inviting, clean, modern and comfortable. Realy enjoyed everything I ate here breakfast, lunch and dinner. I look forward to returning as soon as possible. The river views at meals were beautiful. I would have loved smoked salmon in the breakfast buffet but everything else was perfect
Good modern hotel with great views of limerick looking across the river at the centre of limerick nice area
Had to go from -1 to 6 via lifts. On way down decided to use stairs as queues for lift. Stairs went to 5 but could not see where stairs down was
Hotel in the city center by the river, a nice view.
Like this hotel. Its very stylish and service is good.. only complaint is that they charge for car parking.. a bit irish
Good reception, well decorated and comfortable rooms. Bar overlooking the River Shannon and delicious food, Service and friendly welcome. Extra breakfast buffet. Close to the city on foot.
I found the parking a pit experience
For people using the Hotel
Plus 1 pay point and lot of people paying at one time
Very poor
