Park Inn Hotel Shannon Reviews

4 out of 5

The Park Inn is the most convenient access to Shannon Airport. With an early flight, driving 2 hours was not on the cards. We have stayed twice over the last few years. This year's room was updated & less expensive than 2 years ago with Roomex. Only downside was lack of elevator, but staff will assist willingly. As an aside, I love Roomex, very responsive to queries,etc. Pub Meals were fine & worth the $. Checked in at the Airline. @ 6:30 Am. Went back for buffet breakfast, by the time we finished & got back to Airport boarding was in process. All in all a great experience. Rented cars can returned to desks within Airport after hours. Just park in Short Term Lot.

Reception staff very cordial and helpful with very quick check-in and check-out service. Location to airport extremely convenient. Room was clean and stocked with appropriate linen and persnal products. Bathroom needs upgrading of fixtures - everything worked, but obviously old, worn out and less than intact. A clock in room would be helpful. Bar service very good and responsive. Food quality was ok with fair prices for region. Appreciate wake-up call service.

One room had a ripped carpet...large gash. I asked for non-smoking and the room smelled of smoke. It is handy for the airport but not well kept.

I spent two nights in the hotel. Staff were very friendly, helpful and efficient in dealing with any queries. The room was satisfactory with the usual features - tea/coffee facilities,hairdryer etc. It was quite stuffy at night even though I opened the window - not a great option when you are so close to an airport. Breakfast was good with a range of options. Food was available from the bar during lunchtime. There was a long wait as we were part of a large group but it was very tasty. The hotel is still under renovation so some areas were off limits. I would stay in this hotel again.

Very convenient for airport. Found it relaxing enough. Disappointed that I didnt get the promnised light breakfast to my room for 5.15 am as booked and promised.

Room was clean and fine. Windows of a non-smoking room opening out to a staff smoking area seemed ill conceived. Food in the restaurant had gone downhill from previous stays there as the Great Southern. Vegetables were not fresh: using frozen veggies in mid June seems odd for a good hotel. Breakfast buffet was modest and had only one choice for eggs: watery scrambled. Nice small pub in hotel. Proximity (a short walk across the small parking lot)to airport remains the big draw for this hotel. Walking path around airport and out toward town can be a lovely part of the stay as well as easy bus access to Limerick.

The staff of the hotel and the restaurant were very nice.The restaurant food was not bad and open early and late hours. The rooms, however, desperately need updating. My room had several burned-out light bulbs in addition to peeling paint in the bathroom ceiling and an overall shabby, worn-out appearance. There is NO sound-proofing at all in the rooms, so people coming in and out at all hours (given the location on the airport grounds) means that there are doors slamming and loud talking in the halls - a good night's sleep is impossible. Take this hotel for what it is: a place to nap at a too-high price for a few hours before an early-morning flight out of Shannon.

Quick and efficient check-in with friendly manner presaged a generally good experience. Single-room booked was clean and modern with only bathroom showing signs of no recent re-investment - small points like worn metalware of taps and bath/shower outlet were the giveaways - but with rather old metal-framed window allowing ingress of wind and limited external noise. Otherwise,lack of WiFi was a small irritation. Restaurant was spacious, clean and welcoming for both dinner and breakfast experiences. Limited menu choice was further curtailed with one of two fish choices being unavailable and wine-list was confined to a small range of predictable choices; however, breakfast compensated to some extent, with hot- buffet of freshly-cooked produce and unlimited coffee. Quirky aspects at this Park Inn included fully-drawn shades of restaurant - why ? no particularly-positive ambiance resulted - and the hotels car-park needing separate payment to third-party system. This writers proximity to Arrivals area at Shannon airport justified the choice and overall points for this stay were 8 / 10.

We were hoping for a makeover when we learned this hotel was under new management but it seems much the same. The convenience (across the parking lot from the air terminal) makes it worthwhile, but for a hotel at a major international airport one might hope for more. However it is clean and the rooms are comfortable. The Staff are friendly and helpful. But the food is woefully bad. We literally could not eat the dinner (steak and fish) and the dinner menu is very limited. The breakfast was edible but easily the worst we had in a week in Ireland. If the place had decent food, it could be rated very good.

The Park Inn at Shannon is under refurbishing. We were not in one of the re-done rooms. The hotel is perfect if you need a place close to the airport. They had an early morning breakfast available for those leaving at 5:00 AM. That was very nice. Food in the bar was good and prices were resonable. Cost all over is expensive - so it was here too.

This was a very convenient hotel to stay in. It is literally a two minute walk from Shannon Airport. The service was hospitable and the food in the bar and restaurant was very good. Would recommend this hotel, especially if you have an early am flight.

great location near shannon airport, 2 min walk from departures, hotel currently being refurbished, but this did not have an impact on our stay there. Would definitely stay there again. Good breakfast buffet. Standard room, tea making facilities provided as well.

The staff were very nice. My room for a single booking had a double and single bed which were clean and comfortable. The breakfast was very good. Now sorry the negatives must come!! The walls in the room were very dirty and really needed to be painted. The bath room was old and worn and the bath tub very stained. The dinner in the bar was poor, reheated and tasteless i would stay again as the room was clean and the staff and breakfast good. I would advise the hotel to spend some money on redecorating the rooms and updating bathroom suites. also make meals fresh in the evenings!!!

We stayed there after travelling from the Canaries Islands, Friday 28th March 2008. The hotel was lovely and the reception well laid out. Yes the room was on the ground floor and very convenient. However, there were three items I was not satisfied with, 1 there were only 1 set of towels for 2 people. 2 The power shower did not have hot water and I let it run for several minutes. 3 The bath did not have a stopper so we could not take a bath. After travelling for seven hours that day we were looking forward to a decent shower or bath. The breakfast and everything else great. Also it was so convenient to the Airport 100% for that. Mary

My wife was returning from a trip to our family in England and we stayed the night in the Park Inn (used to be the Great Southern). Our room was very comfortable, the staff were excellent and we were pleasantly surprised at the good value we got at the evening meal; we had expected (being right at the airport) to be "ripped off" with their prices - all in all, to be highly recommended

We had a very brief stay here - we were catching a 6am flight out of Shannon airport the following morning. It is in the perfect location for staying if you are flying in or out of Shannon. We really enjoyed our short stay, the room was lovely, the food was good and the staff were good enough to arrange a simple but good breakfast at 4am for us.
