Beautiful hotel

We arrived very early so the room wasn't ready understandably, they took our number and phoned us as soon as it was, which was 2 hours before check in. Room was spacious, spotless and comfortable. The staff were polite, helpful and friendly. The food was delicious and hot

Newpark hotel was our last stop on our road trip through Ireland and it was a great way to end. Our check in concierge was quick with the process and managed to get us into a slightly bigger room with no issues. Our room service was quick and the food was delicious, the clam chowder was excellent.

6/10 Good

If you're a couple having a relaxing weekend away I wouldn't book this hotel. If you're a family with kids it would be a great hotel to stay in. Booked for a couples weekend since I saw it was 4 star and had a spa so it ended up not being a very relaxing hotel experience but it was fine since we were out most of the time.

A great stay

It was a great family stay. The jurassic park was amazing. Very family friendly. The hotel was busy. Room was comfortable but could do with some updating. The family suite with fridge, microwave and sink was a great asset to have. Overall, a nice stay and we would return.
