Advantages: Very good Hotel, great service Disadvantages: In the wrong place.
Just back from a weekend Jaunt to Ireland. We flew Ryanair Eastmidlands to Shannon, £38 return (No hold luggage and online checkin).
We booked the Oakwood Arms at Shannon, this was mainly as our return flight was 09:30 Monday morning and we did not want to get up early to travel.
We booked it thru LATEROOMS.COM for 85 Euros a night for Double room with Buffet Breakfast.
Ireland seems to be pricey for Hotels, so this was not too bad (We do cheaper when we go Venice).
We had hired a Car so after picking that up it was just a 10 min Drive into Shannon and the Hotel.
First Impressions were very good, better than most of the reviews we had read.
Its a low level building on the edge of Shannon, not that there's much in the middle of Shannon, just seems to be a Housing Estate.
Checkin looks very smart and professional ...
Advantages: charming reasonably piced rooms and award winning food Disadvantages: can get busy
On a recent visit to Northern Ireland, I was lucky enough to be shown round by someone born and bred in Larne. It was on her suggestion that we paid a visit to the Londonderry Arms, a 3 star hotel with two restaurants in the charming and quaint harbour village of Carnlough.

Advantages: location, price Disadvantages: average bed
Hotel Ibis Carlisle
Nice cheap but good hotel at the centre of Carlisle.
Ibis Hotel
The Ibis hotelCarlisle is part of the Ibis Company. The Ibis is a European company and a subsidiary company of the French Accor. They have worldwide 750 hotels. Characteristic of the Ibis is that they are cheap, simple but you get good quality for your money. They have a nice breakfast and offer several services. I have stayed a few times in an Ibis, often because of the location of the hotel in a city. They are often next to an airport or in the middle of the centre.
Ibis Carlisle:
The Ibis Carlisle is located at the Botchergate in the centre of Carlisle. It's a nice small hotel with 102 rooms. On the ground floor you have the reception with 1 or 2 persons, who speak English. At the Ibis you will always find ...
