Lovely location. Great lady on desk on check in.
One of our starters were cold and the fish, as part of main course was tasteless. The fact that all guests have to pay to use the steam room/sauna and hot tubs is a joke. One of the rooms was out of order. I felt that it is a bit much to pay up near €400 for a hotel room and then be expected to pay €60 for a couple to use these facilities. There is no swimming pool so this facility I believe should be made available to guests staying in the hotel. The lack of a bar area wasn’t great either.
The view of the river and the food were the highlight of our stay
The cost did not match the experience. We paid 365 euro for one night and then had to pay a further 60 euro just to use the spa facilities. Overall a very expensive night away.
Food was excellent as was the treatment from staff at all times. Thermal suite was a big hit. Really lovely, relaxing experience!
Comfort of room
No treatments available when I tried to book in advance...bar food was poor, service slow
It was absolutely phenomenal! The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The spa was to die for! and the rooms WOW! we loved every second of it. we could have stayed forever! Great stay Great staff and even better location. Really nice and quiet area overlooking the water. We will definitely be returning!

Everything at the property is spotless and the atmosphere is calm. We were very well taken care of. It’s a very well run hotel in a stunning location, only a short walk to Ballina where there’s more fabulous hospitality. Thank you so much.
love the location and waking up to the river view. Wonderful staff who are chatty and cheerful. Mid summer in mid heat was difficult without air con, but otherwise fantastic!

The wellness centre was fabulous 👌
Everything from start to finish food was really good staff were friendly and the hotel was fabulous we had a wonderful stay ❤️ it was our wedding anniversary and there was a lovely welcome gift and card in room was so thoughtful
The view is beautiful. Very scenic to watch the kayaks and boats go by.
The spa was an additional cost to our room type (deluxe) which we just seemed really unnecessary given that the room itself was very expensive but is pretty basic so I’ve no idea what you’re paying for if the spa access isn’t included.
A fantastic location. Very relaxing but also vibrant. Looking forward to coming back
L emplacement est magnifique, l accueil parfait , la chambre dans la nouvelle aile est magnifique, au raz de le rivière , le restaurant très bon , le spa magnifique !
Améliorez le buffet du petit déjeuner !
It was lovely and comfortable.
The food was not great for dinner steak cooked well done instead of medium rare

Lovely location on the river. Excellent staff and very clean. Restaurant was excellent

Spa facilities were excellent Lunch was very good
For the price, the bar felt very dated. The picture of the room on the ad was nowhere near reality of water views. Dinner was very poor despite being priced extremely high
Lovely energy in the building. Staff nice and professional. Great facilities. Spa, Rooms, Food, We will come back.
Slight hiccup on arrival. No Booking.com booking had arrived. However it was sorted after 15 minutes. Coffee taste was not smooth. It should be for a top hotel like this. Either the coffee beans were off or the machine set incorrectly.
Beautiful hotel and spa facilities were excellent and great staff
Great food and friendly staff and great spa
Lovely location professional and friendly staff bedroom/bathroom very spacious loved the gorgeous paintings
Couldn’t find air conditioning
The food was nice. Staff are friendly. Room decor is nice
Staff nice but poorly trained. Breakfast buffet very minimal and only 1 hot item on the menu PP, additional cost for more. Use of basic spa facilities additional cost to the very overpriced room rate. Building exterior at spa requires cleaning and painting. Parking limited.

There wasn't anything to not like
Lovely setting, comfortble room, good facilities
For its prices, the breakfasts and dinners were a bit disappointing. Selections of breads and cereals at breakfast was limited. Bad enough that there was no porridge on the hot menu, but the overnight oats only came with almond milk - very 2020s no doubt, but very poor in my opinion!! Some dinner items were excellent, but the choice was not very extensive, and "fish of the day" was the same Saturday and Sunday, and not very appealing.
Fab location nice spa
Food menu does not meet expectations
Bedroom was lovely
Spa was a let down, very noisy . Very overpriced.
Spa was amazing, the price is definitely reasonable. The food was delicious and the restaurant had a lovely view. The staff were so helpful and kind, especially Matthew at the front desk. We will absolutely be back for an extra night.
Hotel itself and location were very nice. Spa was lovely. Staff were friendly.
Little things but the breakfast needs work in my opinion, it looks and tastes cheap ( the food that's made to order). Also myself and my partner ordered steaks cooked differently, and when the server served us the food didn't know which was which. Also as a paying guest I don't think you should have to pay extra to use the Jacuzzi.
Loved how helpful and friendly the staff were at reception. The view was amazing
Location. Was only 2 bars & 2 shops in walking distance
The hotel staff. We were met with hospitality by every member of the staff.
No shower cap in the bedroom

The bed was super comfy and the room was spotless
The food was mediocre, the smell in the hall to the rooms needs to be addressed asap sooo bad, obviously the ice name of the hotel is carried through and i should if known netter the place was freezing especially the dining area where numerous guests asked to move. The spa was just ok, that is not the way to set up a seaweed bath, the oils were non existent.
A very nice property overlooking a tidal river, you could spend ages just admiring the view from either your room, restaurant or the spa area. Fantastic hot tubs on an external decked area fully exposed to the elements. The food was of excellent quality and surprisingly not to expensive. Staff were helpful and made you feel very welcome.

The staff were amazing from bar to reception to restaurant all were fantastic. So friendly, so helpful just brilliant
On check in the hotel was a bit cold. The breakfast display was not in keeping with the luxury feel of the hotel. It felt a little last minute b&b offering and not 4 star hotel.
The view from my room was absolutely breathtaking — I couldn’t stop looking at it. Truly unforgettable!” 🌅💛
The whole experience was absolutely amazing from the moment we entered the building to the time we left. Every part of the food, treatment and accommodation was top class. Excellent value for money.
Location was excellent. Very quiet. Great views
Interesting architecture. Well designed restaurant. Food very good. Beautiful outlook.
Very long way to our room. Lift, full length of corridor, 2 flights stairs, full length of corridor. Felt like we were the least important guests as we were unlikely to be back.
Excellent breakfast and spa treatment
Staff would not accommodate a reschedule due to a very ill guest. Very rigid and no exceptions. Unacceptable given high pricing
Location Friendly staff
Shower Lukewarm at best
Ice House è un gioiello che dà sul fiume Moy, una posizione fantastica. Tutto è molto curato. Ho apprezzato in particolar modo la stanza, ben equipaggiata, il suo grazioso balconcino per godersi la vista sul fiume, il cibo freschissimo del ristorante. Non ho usufruito dei servizi della spa per mancanza di tempo ma torneremo certamente.
Very friendly staff, great location with beautiful views. The hotel has a wonderful art collection. The spa facilities are very good and relaxing.
The restaurant lacked atmosphere in the evening- a very large scale venue for the hotel size, felt very impersonal. Food average and surprisingly with few healthy options to augment the spa experience. The restaurant has two entrances one of which was not staffed so people had to hang around and hoped to be noticed. Service at breakfast was slow and surrounding tables not cleared, felt understaffed.
An amazing hotel views just stunning Spa facilities just perfect Food 💯 We will be back 🫶
