Radisson BLU Hotel and Spa, Limerick (Limerick City, Ireland)

Most guests give the front desk team rave reviews for their personable and professional customer service, commenting often on their smiling faces and their willingness to "go the extra mile" to make every guest feel welcome, even the littlest ones. The housekeeping team also gets high marks, as the word "spotless" comes up in many reviews.

Few guests fail to comment on the "peace and quiet" and the serene views, as the hotel is surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens and parkland. Guests are generally impressed by the spacious, modern rooms and comfortable beds. Guests in the suites and Business Class rooms appreciate their extra touches, such as the bathrobes and Nespresso machine.

The hotel is within an easy drive of many popular west coast sites, including Thomond Park and King John's Castle. Drivers note that it is easy to find from the motorway and appreciate the ample free parking. Guests also appreciate that there is much to do on site. The spa receives glowing reviews for the high quality of its professional services and kind, attentive staff, while kids rave about the "kids club" and the pool, which has dedicated "family swim" times.

Though most guests find their rooms to be clean and comfortable, several find the bathrooms need updating, or else note that some rooms still feature the old-fashioned televisions. Others note peeling wallpaper, walls in need of repainting, or worn carpets.

While many enjoy the restaurant food, several found the menu too limited, or else felt the breakfast buffet was lacking in variety.

A few guests experienced long waits at the front desk or in the restaurant.
