I had a fantastic stay at the absolute! A noisy group of travelers ( which can happen anywhere, no fault of absolute) provided an unpleasant morning. The staff immediately accommodated me to another room within minutes and very politely tolerated my morning irritability !! The rest of the stay was perfect! I highly recommend The Absolute Hotel in Limerick if... More

Over the years I have stayed in 3 other hotels in Limerick, but the Absolute was recommended to me by a business colleague, so decided to give it a go. Absolutely delighted I did. Have stayed twice now (in the same room on both occasions). The room is large, with a lovely clean and modern feel. Free wifi with excellent... More

I stayed in this hotel on the 11th of May with 4 girls for a girly weekend. I highly recommend it. The Staff were so helpful. The rooms were very modern & spacious and spotless clean. The food was excellent and very reasonable. The location was perfect a 5 minute walk to the city centre. Definitely the best hotel I... More

This hotel was fine, not best location and awkward to get to, limited parking in secure car park but room and dining were adequate for the hotel rating. We found this hotel better than another of same rating on the other side of city.

Sorry we didn’t deliver to the level we aim to and you expected. I can see you generally were not blown away but it would be great to get any specific feedback we could action on. I see you felt there was something missing. The gym is small, more a fitness room but there is everything in the for a... More

The directions on the hotel's website are incorrect so we spent over an hour driving around Limerick to get to it. You turn right at the Great Gas garage coming from the M7, not the Emo garage. The facilities are average at best. Breakfast was good, but dinner wasn't great. A basic request such as a baked potato with dinner... More

Sorry we did not deliver the experience we want to deliver. Fair point on the directions – they have just rebranded the emo to a great gas and we were not sharp enough to change it quick enough. We don’t offer baked potatoes on the menu and it fairness it would take too long to prepare there and then –... More

We selected Limerick as our home base for our Irish adventures on the west coast on a recent vacation and really enjoyed the hotel. Very modern, the suites overlook the river, and the staff was very courteous and helpful. The restaurant is a bit overpriced, but otherwise I would highly recommend this modern hotel. There is a small gravel lot... More

It has the look and feel of a trendy, cosmopolitan boutique hotel situated in Dublin or London. We had a VERY spacious, stylish room with an immaculate bathroom. Friendly reception staff were at pains to point out that we would save money by adding breakfast to our room-only deal rather than just walking in the following morning. Glad we did,... More

I only stayed one night but would use this place again. It is central enough and sits on an island in the River Shannon where it meets the canal. The place was very clean, the windows opened and the service was efficient. Breakfast was fine as well.

Really nice modern hotel. The rooms were gorgeous and really clean - loved the exposed brick on one wall feature. Very much boutique-style and very cool. This type of room in New York would cost an arm and a leg. Excellent value for money. Also want to applaud the very friendly and efficient staff. We were there on a work... More
