Quaint and interesting older hotel that hosts weekly traditional Irish jam sessions in their dining room with local participants. The manager was kind enough to coordinate the loan of a guitar for me when we travelled to nearby towns for a few days. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the room was clean and comfortable.

Farnham Arms was cosy and inviting. The rooms were very comfortable and the new bathrooms were a joy. We dined in the People’s Restaurant and enjoyed very high quality food. Hotel is family run and you can see the effort input to ensure guests have a wonderful time.

The hotel was in a good location. We had a problem with our first room and were moved once we told the staff immediately.
The staff were very friendly and the breakfast was freshly cooked and very good.

Property was a little outdated but that is the character we were looking for. Room was clean and comfortable except for the spider on my husbands pillow. Breakfast was the best we had in Ireland. Servers were wonderful

Staff lovely, unfortunately there was renovation work going on during our visit which made it very noisy during the day
Only complaints is there was no shelf in bathroom to set stuff on and one paper cup for coffee/tea/water !

Good amount of parking out the back although a little tricky finding it, and I was
Locked out one evening, it was tricky getting the gate opened. Room was comfortable if pretty tired. Decent shower, a good flow and hot water. There are a couple of bars and restaurants attached to the hotel but run independently, so no charge gi g to the room.

Good: Central location, walk to restaurants, shops and bars safely. Free parking in secured lot. Cooked breakfast included. Friendly staff. Traditional Irish music on Sunday afternoons and a good pub across the street, Blessings, to watch soccer.
Only complaint: It was a hot week in August and the room was very warm; tiny windows only opened a crack, no A/C or fan.
Staff were friendly and helpful. The building is a bit worn. Good
restaurant and lounge on ground floor.

Stayed here for the second year running and so much has changed. There was a nice tented summer seating area outside in the back courtyard with heaters for the chilly evenings, however this is removed and made into extra car parking. The hotel room We stayed in only had a shower and no bath. Like all hotels they are now overrun with Ukrainians and the bread and butter visitor gets the left overs. The tourist industry is dead in the water
