comments We really enjoyed our stay at Brandon House and we really enjoyed the spa. The only negative was when we had carvery lunch on Sunday the chef was very rude and off putting, my husband asked was there any roast potatoes as he was having a roast dinner and the chef looked at him in an unkind way and just said "NO" in a high pitched voice. I asked him for chips and he then said to the other chef (female) "get her chips". I didn’t think this was a very nice way to speak to his customers. Otherwise all other staff were very helpful and friendly. Thanks Aileen

comments My Husband myself and our grandaughter had a very pleasant few days staying at the Brandon House hotel, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the room and the hotel in general was very nice,we realy enjoyed the leasure centre and the food including the bar food was excelent, we also visited Hook Lighthouse, President Kennedys Homestead and the President Kennedy Park all of which were most enjoyable. The Music on the wednesday night was excellent even though there was not a huge crowd in the lounge at the time, the singer was very good. We would highly recommend a stay at the Brandon

comments It was a pleasure to stay at the Brandon House Hotel in New Ross. It is in a lovely peaceful location, the hotel is clean, staff are friendly and the breakfast is fantastic. The only down side was that the hotel was very warm inside and they could do with a bit of background music in the bar, its a little quiet when you are trying to have a conversation. But overall its a lovely hotel to stay in.

comments on both the saturday and sunday afternoons and evenings there were functions arranged which took over all the social areas of the hotel except for the main dining room - we felt that there was little consideration for residents and it was impossible to get a drink at the bar or sit in bar/library areas. the entrance/exit was also cluttered by significant numbers of smokers from the functions. other than that we were extremely satisfied with the hotel room, staff, breakfast and we enjoyed two excellent dinners. we did make these points verbally to the receptionist on leaving.

comments Everything was great, except the room. It was a little dissapointing, most of all the beds. They were very uncomfortable and the double bed could have been a little bigger. The decor in the rooms was old and a little shabby, and there were a couple of things I didn't like, such as the wallpaper bubbling from previous damp and a broken tap in the bathroom. That said, however, overall we enjoyed our stay. The dinner was top notch, as were the breakfasts (except for a strong taste of coffee from the teapots). The leisure centre was excellent, the kids really enjoyed it. Overall I would have given our stay a satisfaction rating of 5 only for the rooms.

comments The Brandon is a beautiful country house, the staff are excellent & the new spa is top class. We have stayed here several times & never been disappointed. The resturant serves great food & has a lovely atmosphere. For more casual dining the bar food is equaly as good. We love this hotel so much that we had our wedding reception there a year ago even though we live more than 50 miles away! Cannot recommended enough for families and couples.

comments Hotel is very pleaseant to stay in for 3 star. Rooms are basic decor but clean. I would rate the staff very highly indeed. The only issue I would have is with the food. Although the choice and presentation is very appealing, the food is sometimes cold, or smothered in sauce so it's hit and miss. I've stayed in the hotel twice and both times fealt the same. An example is this time I had the nicest rack of lamb main course I've had anywhere - an absolutely gorgeous dinner. But then I had apple crumble for dessert. The crumble was mush and the custard, of which there was too much, was hot in places and cold in places suggesting to me that the dessert was heated in the microwave, something I wouldnt even do myself with crumble and I'm not a cook, never mind a chef !

comments The room was very nice, and we were very impressed with the leisure centre. Breakfast was a bit disorganised on the first morning and they ran out of eggs as we were queueing but Sunday was fine. The meal in the restaurant on Saturday night was lovely and the service was excellent. The only other quibble we had with the hotel was the loud live music friday night in the library bar. We would have much rathered they didtn bother with any music and we felt it took from the overall ambience of the place.

Initially i only booked a 2 day stay but ended staying for 3 days because i felt so relaxed and at home. Will deffently recommend The Brandon House Hotel to my fiends & staff and will most deffently be returning myself.

comments Better entertainment - hotel is out of the way therefore people are more likely to have a drink in the hotel. The bedroom was very cold, probably because it was the last room on the corridor and on the ground floor. Food/services etc. were excellent. Staff were brilliant. Really enjoyed our stay.

comments Comfortable, warm and friendly hotel with very good leisure and pool facilities for all the family. The newly opened Spa is a supert place to relax and be pampered. Perhaps if a games room was available so children could have a few hours to play games, read and just hang-out would be great. Overall, the food, service and rooms were inded very good and enjoyable.

comments We stayed in a family room and everything was great. It was a little small but we were very grateful it was on the ground floor. The staff were all very nice, the SPA was amazing, as was the pool. The bar food was great but the restaurant food for dinner and breakfast was very disappointing. Overall we were satisfied.

comments pool excellent ,water grotto good. meal little dissapointing, starter, 'bed of leaves' like something you find in bottom of fridge that needs chucking out, wilted, no dressing, meat in main course beautifully cooked, but veg scarce and poor enough, dessert fine. Breakfast nice but not enough teapots! no marmalade.. Rooms adequate. No comparison to Radison in Limerick where we stayed for same price!

comments This hotel has a unique style. It combines the old world style of the original "big" house with high-tech environmentally friendly design in the modern spa. Its recent modernisation seems to be localised and some areas are a little tired in decor, however, it has the friendliest & most helpful staff we've encountered in recent years travelling around Ireland. As a family of four we had a wonderful weekend, the only downside was that we would have preferred advance warning of the bedroom arrangement (i.e. bunk beds and very small)

comments We had rang and asked for a room with one double bed and no other beds as we were bringing along a travel cot for our child. But when we got there, our room had a double and a single bed so we had to push the single bed over to make room for the travel cot. It just made the room very small for three people despite my phone request!

comments I found the hotel staff very helpful and friendly. Because the hotel has a lot of weddings and such like on, we found that the parking could be a problem but to be fair, we always got a space in the end. Although it may have taken a while to find one and it was a futher distance from the hotel than we would have liked. I used the Beauty Spa and found it was only ok. The food in both the restaurant and the bar was lovely and the service very good. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the kids loved the swimming pool!

comments The only snag we had was that the rooms were small for 2 Adults and 2 children. We had to upgrade to a bigger single room as there are no 1 bedroom suites. That aside we had a great time, the staff were great and very helpful. A film was run for the kids every night giving us some time to ourselves. The swimming pool and Hydro grotto was very good and My wife loved them. Food in the restaurant was good with a good selection. There is a new spa a joining hotel just about to open. Would go back

comments The bedroom was very clean and well looked after and the food was delicious. The pool and leisure facilities were excellent. The only problem I had was with the bar service and the cleanliness of the smoking area. The bar always seemed to be short staffed and was very untidy. The smoking area was just ignored, although it was outside, I still think it should be maintained properly.

comments I thoroughly enjoyed mystay in the hotel. The food and service in the restautant was out of this world. You could not ask for better. I had 2 spa treatments which I was a little disappointed with. I had booked facial and back massage from 4-5pm. My treatment finished at 4.50pm. When I got back to my room, there was still some face mask on my face, when I washed my face, all my make-up was still on my face.

comments I really enjoyed my stay in the Brandon house hotel, it has a warm, friendly atmosphere that you can't help but relax in. I would only have one issue with the hotel if you are staying on a weekend and there is a wedding taking place the whole bar and lobby area are over taken by it,also the hotel staff were over run with the wedding guests requests so if you weren't involved with the wedding you were more or less forgotten about. I had the misfortune to have two weddings take place during my stay. I would love to stay here when there are no functions on I'm guessing it would be a wonderful retreat for the day to day stress.

comments Have to say we felt it ws the best value for money short break we've ever had with children. Lots to do with the kids close to aswell as in the hotel. Great leisure centre, friendly and professional staff. to be honest we were going with an open mind as it cost so little so we were amazed at how great it was. we never once had to ring reception to ask for something, usually on arrival we find hotels forget to set up cot for us and we were impressed to see it set up here when we arrived!!! We felt comforable and welcome in the public areas of the hotel with very young children which isnt always the case!! Little things like that make such a difference when you are travelling with kids. Going back next month!

I had a facial and where the therepast was excellent the surrounds could have been more relaxing. The pool area was excellent and the changing rooms etc., were elcellent.

comments Nice hotel. Lovely leisure centre. Bar food very dissapointing - possible one of the worst sandwiches I have ever encountered - very poor presentation, however restaurant food was lovely- our booking was for 2nd sitting @ 8.30, as it was very busy we had to wait until 9.20 to be seated, which was rather late & we were very hungry at that stage & not impressed, by way of an apology we got a free bottle of wine with our dinner, which was nice, but we would have preferred to have been seated at the correct time. Restuarant staff should advise people at the 1st sitting at 6.30, that they need to vacate the table by 8.15 for arrivals at 2nd sitting, which clearly isnt happening at present. Overall though this did not spoil our time here & I would go back again if I was in the area.

comments The welcome when we arrived, was very warm and enthusiastic. The foyer and bar areas were welcoming and inviting. the Dining room was quiet when we started dinner @7pm but it filled up quite quickly and both the food and the atmosphere was lively. The Head waiter/maitre D' was amusing, but non intrusive. The rooms were nice and the Leisure Centre was lovely.

comments Rooms fine,good food,friendly staff. Hotel unable to arrange babysitting as a matter of policy (cited insurance reasons), made this establishment virtually useless for a family break. Would not stay again unless this policy is changed.

comments I really enjoyed my stay ion the hotel. I found the staff to be efficient courteous and very helpful. I found the dinners portions were small but tasty. I could have eaten to dinners. One thing I found was the sole of the children's socks were black from running around in the bed room. All in all we enjoyed out stay in the Brandon hotel and would stay their again

comments Overall, we enjoyed our stay at this hotel. We felt that the exterior and main areas of the hotel were very well presented. However, we were surprised to see that the bedroom was more dated and did not quite live up to our expectations. The food served in the Gallery restaurant was absolutely superb. We enjoyed a fabulous meal and cannot rate it highly enough. Unfortunately the food we received from room service was disappointing, despite being equally as expensive as the restaurant food. The swimming pool and health and leisure facilities were really nice and very clean. Our children had a great time in the pool, which was not too deep for them. The staff at the hotel were very friendly and helpful, which helped to make our stay very pleasant.

comments We had a very enjoyable stay, we have young kids and found the hotel and staff very child friendly. The only thing I thought might be of more benefit would be an outdoor play area with swings,slides or other suitable play equipment for children.
