The Branches

I had a lovely stay at the Branches. Michael and his family were very kind and very helpful and the breakfast spread was amazing! The place felt very cozy and comfy from the second I entered. Will absolutely return whenever I'm back in the area.

The proprietor was very nice and obliging. We had to leave early for a flight and would miss breakfast. He offered to make us sandwiches to bring with us. The hotel was very clean, and the regular breakfast was excellent. However, we had the family room and it was extremely small. There was room for the beds and not much else. Very little room to move around. Additionally, the shower stall was very small.

Very quaint little spot! The bathroom in our room was extremely small but it worked for what we needed! The owner was extremely kind and helpful. His breakfast was the best! The only thing I want to note is that a lot of people said it was within walking distance to city center and it was not, but the bus was €2 to get to town and we didn't mind too much. Also very close to Merlins Pub which was a great spot for a pint!

The landlord & his family were really pleasant and friendly, I was made to feel right at home.

Very clean, owner very helpful and pleasant. Bed extremely comfortable with a Memory Foam mattress topper. Excellent breakfast. Only complain, no tea and coffee making facilities in the bedroom.

We wish we could stay longer, the host is very friendly, attentive and welcoming, he upgraded our room to a ensuite and the complimentary breakfast was so much more than what we expect from B&B. Bed is very comfy, Everything is clean and well kept! Transpotation is very convient, bus 409 takes 10 min to town and stop is right outside the place, Highly recommend!

Perfect place to stay for the price. Its about 10Euro in taxi from city centre and about 15 mins on a bus which goes from the front of the estate. The only issue we had was that there was no place for the shower head to be held so you had to hold it in one hand while showering.

I've stayed in B&Bs all over Ireland, and I found the Branches to be a totally reliable, clean, welcoming and warm bed and breakfast.The internet worked fine and the television channels were plentiful.The room was clean and hygienic, as was the en-suite.No complaints here.It's a bit out of the town, so if I had one complaint it would be to be careful of the taxi drivers taking advantage of you, fares wise. It would have been nice if the branches had given us an estimate for what the average ride into town might be - but it's a minor gripe, and more a suggestion. If they'd done this, I'd be happy enough to rate the place as a perfect resort.The hotel/b&b itself was great. Happy to visit again.

The Branches is a wonderful B&B, with hospitality like no other. Condition of the rooms is excellent and the whole house has a very high standard of cleanliness. The only thing I have to say which might be looked upon as not so good is the location, which isn't in walking distance to the city center. However, once you are aware of this, there are buses which go frequently from just outside the B&B!I can recommend this B&B to any and all travelers.

Lovely clean modern house. I booked a single and although the room was small the bed was a small double and very comfortable. Shower room a bit small but perfectly adequate.Breakfast was good and freshly cooked with toast but no  yogurt or brown bread on offer. On the down side there was no tea making facilities in room. Overall I enjoyed my stay and would return.

Nice clean, comfortable house with no frills.

The hosts were wonderful. They were there to answer our questions and served a wonderful full Irish breakfast. If it were just for their hospitality, I would give 110% to this review.The downsides to our stay:The room and ensuite bathroom were quite small. It was difficult moving around while we were there.The neighborhood was noisy. There were crowds of people laughing and partying well into the night.

Great hosts!

Cute!

Although we were only here for a night, we enjoyed our stay. The B&B is outside of the city, but it has a few restaurants nearby, and it's easy to get to. The room was small but served its purpose -- the bed was quite comfortable, which is not always a sure thing. The bathroom, however, was almost too small to be comfortable -- when you sit on the toilet your knees are literally in the shower. Breakfast was delicious, and Mike was a gracious host and cook.

Small but comfortable

Perfectly fine B&B.  Nice breakfast, 15 min by bus from city center.  Seems that every house on the road is a B&B so honestly what differentiates them I don't know.  But hosts were nice so I would recommend and stay again.  En-suite bathroom was tiny in a national lampoon's European vacation kind of way, but I think that added to the charm.  It's not a hotel -things don't need to be perfect and grandiose, just clean, quiet and safe.  It's a great value for money.

Great location, lovely host

Better than a hotel!

Friendly & helpful couple running this very reasonably priced B&B. Situated in a nice quiet housing estate so noise is not a problem. Only 2 small drawbacks - distance from city centre (10mins by bus) & small room. Ideal if you just need a place to sleep, but would be a bit cramped if more than 2 people per room. Overall great bargain!
