Clayton Hotel Limerick
Nice hotel, but basically I paid £346 for a bed for 2nights, hotel done exactly what a hotel is supposed to do but I must thank the night manager for supplying a pizza at 3am, breakfast was a buffet, eat what you want, but quite bland, nothing to write home about. Bed, duvet and pillows were comfy. ...

The George Limerick Hotel
Hotel is clean, restaurant is decent and location was good. We had a front facing room and the bar noise across the street was a bit loud. Overall was happy with the stay.
