Good location en route to Dublin - hadn’t realised it was at a service station though. Spacious room with very comfortable bed.

The room was big and beautiful. The location was ideal for shopping in portlaoise and kilkenny. The staff were a pleasure to deal with, especially when one of our meals was not to a nice standard. They dealt with it very professionally.

Wanted to eat in proper Irish pub with live music as we have done at several other locations. Loads of bars, none serving food. Plenty of takeaways but didn’t want to sit on a bench to eat. Stayed at end of holiday so wanted to take home some local produce, cheese, bread, cakes but just one supermarket selling same as UK. Handy stopping off point between Killarney and Dublin but little else going for it

The town is not what we expected!
The town is not what we expected! There are so many pubs and restaurants who do both sit down and take away meals. Lots of live music coming from several pubs walking up and down the town. Very nice place! Only 50 minutes from the Red Cow so we were able to get the Luas into Dublin. Although we drove ourselves, we saw lots of taxis so I'd imagine it's very easy to get around.

I reviewed Harry Potter Themed guest house, in the house room 4. The response I received was appalling to say the least. To say I should have booked the Hilton because I mentioned we had to collect our key from a table, with no one to give us bath towels that were not supplied in the bathroom and that the shower was dirty and not cleaned since last person used it and foul smell in the bathroom. Also no fire escape plan and dangerous exposed wires for the lighted cotton wool over the bed is childish and insulting. I am not posh in any way. Just expect a clean safe room. This is not a response anyone should expect from any accommodation.

The staff were great very friendly from the first to the last. The food was fantastic and reasonably priced. Parking was free and ample with all the facilities you might want on the one site.
Just great all round.

Portlaoise is well located in the midlands of Ireland about 1 hour S East of Dublin. There are many historical, cultural and scenic locations in close proximity and it is a great stop over if travelling further south to Cork Kerry and further afield- - but dont just stop over spend a few days exploring the area of Laois - The Slieve Bloom mountains, The Rock of Dunamaise, several golf courses, fishing, cycling, the round tower of Timahoe, Stradbally steam museum and a host of other places too!!
The town is just off junction 16 & 17 of the M7 motorway and has great bus and train service too. There are a variety of hotels & b&B available with urban and rural locations to suit your budget.
Check it out! : )
Had booked it as a surprise for my daughter who was turning 10 and from the minute we entered the hotel the receptionist greeted us wit a smile explained everything to us.. we then had time for dinner and the staff were lovely even brought out my daughters brownie and ice cream wit candles on each and sang happy birthday to her it really made her night only pity was I didnt book it for two nites.. she loved the swimming pool will definitely be back
A massive thank you to Deidra and Rita on Reception who pulled out all the stops to make our home away from home while working when we needed to move room due to the noise outside our first floor window from 11pm to 2,30 am . We managed to move rooms for the second nights stay and thank you for making the experience more comfortable by what you both did - THANK YOU ! We will definitely be coming back to stay at the Killeshin Hotel.
Everything about the hotel was fab, we arrived to the genuinely welcoming smile of front receptionist Nina, an absolute pleasure to deal with, helpful informative and just lovely.
The room was great, we had breakfast delivered and it was scrumptious.
On leaving we met Jonathan, again a fantastic representative funny and extremely helpful.
We'll be visiting again thats for sure!!
The breakfast was fantastic...the best we had in our 9-day stay in Ireland. The location was convenient to the train station and close to town where all the shops and restaurants were. The inn was quaint. Be aware that check-in time is 5. We were kindly accommodated for our early arrival. (If you arrive early you might not be able to get in at all until check-in time.)
It is an almost 200 years old building so it has a special atmosphere what i liked. The host of the hotel is very nice person. Also the location of the property is very good, because it is close to main street with small shops and pubs and it is very close to rail station, what is very comfortable if you come to Portlaoise by train.
When first checking in I was presented with the breakfast menu for the following days. It had a variety of options but as I was mostly using public transport I stuck eating cereal. It is also perfectly situated halfway between the train station and the main street, with a multi-story car park and cinema across the street.
This was our first time staying at the Iveigh House Hotel, Portlaoise, from the arrival to our check out time everything was excellent. The personal touches, greeting upon arrival, early check requested, a location with tons of character, centrally located and a breakfast which was superb, well done !
rooms were side by side as requested, a nice double bed and one single, with hairdryer, ironing board, tea coffee facilities provided. nice size room. Drinks in the bar served promptly with nice staff. leisure centre is OK, small enough pool. hotel was quiet with good sound proofing windows.
We had a lovely night away at the Midlands Park Hotel. Reception and breakfast staff were lovely. Dinner at Kelly's was the highlight - we had some brownie/marshmallow concoction for dessert that we're still talking about! Looking forward to trying out the pool on our next visit.
Pleasant stay, owner was v. Nice. Room could have done with a tv that had free to air channels, as only has now tv, which needed to be paid for in order to watch. (Not great to be fair).
"Welcome" note only had a list of charges for breaking the rules.
Room clean and warm.
Very well situated in the middle of town, super friendly staff, lovely spacious room, room and bathroom were spotless. Breakfast was lovely.
I think Portlaoise (abd Laois in general) is not enough advertized by Tourism Ireland but this lovely town has stolen my heart!
Lunch at bar was great. Supper at Kelly’s was good food. Servers could have been more attentive, but it was later in evening and they were tired, I guess. Parking garage was best we ever saw in Ireland.
Nice hotel, good beds, excellent breakfast, plenty of parking...it was an unexpected surprise for us--better than the other hotels we stayed at during our two week trip to UK and Ireland.
It's the type of hotel that does exactly what it says on the tin. Food was delicious, accommodated our needs and location is very close to main routes to north or south.
