    Wanted to eat in proper Irish pub with live music as we have done at several other locations. Loads of bars, none serving food. Plenty of takeaways but didn’t want to sit on a bench to eat. Stayed at end of holiday so wanted to take home some local produce, cheese, bread, cakes but just one supermarket selling same as UK. Handy stopping off point between Killarney and Dublin but little else going for it

    The town is not what we expected!

    The town is not what we expected! There are so many pubs and restaurants who do both sit down and take away meals. Lots of live music coming from several pubs walking up and down the town. Very nice place! Only 50 minutes from the Red Cow so we were able to get the Luas into Dublin. Although we drove ourselves, we saw lots of taxis so I'd imagine it's very easy to get around.

    I reviewed Harry Potter Themed guest house, in the house room 4. The response I received was appalling to say the least. To say I should have booked the Hilton because I mentioned we had to collect our key from a table, with no one to give us bath towels that were not supplied in the bathroom and that the shower was dirty and not cleaned since last person used it and foul smell in the bathroom. Also no fire escape plan and dangerous exposed wires for the lighted cotton wool over the bed is childish and insulting. I am not posh in any way. Just expect a clean safe room. This is not a response anyone should expect from any accommodation.

    The breakfast and Kelly’s steakhouse is the reason we head to portlaoise! It’s our favorite steak house in Ireland! The food is delicious, the staff are kind and the beds are comfy what more could you ask

    Portlaoise is well located in the midlands of Ireland about 1 hour S East of Dublin. There are many historical, cultural and scenic locations in close proximity and it is a great stop over if travelling further south to Cork Kerry and further afield- - but dont just stop over spend a few days exploring the area of Laois - The Slieve Bloom mountains, The Rock of Dunamaise, several golf courses, fishing, cycling, the round tower of Timahoe, Stradbally steam museum and a host of other places too!! The town is just off junction 16 & 17 of the M7 motorway and has great bus and train service too. There are a variety of hotels & b&B available with urban and rural locations to suit your budget. Check it out! : )

    The breakfast was fantastic...the best we had in our 9-day stay in Ireland. The location was convenient to the train station and close to town where all the shops and restaurants were. The inn was quaint. Be aware that check-in time is 5. We were kindly accommodated for our early arrival. (If you arrive early you might not be able to get in at all until check-in time.)

    It was absolutely spotless, cozy and exactly what we wanted for a quiet weekend of relaxation. We didn't leave the hotel apart from to pop to the food court next door. The lunch menu in the bar was simple and reasonable. I love an open kitchen, it really shows that there's nothing to hide! Very happy. Will definitely return. Oh, and online check in is brilliant!

    It is an almost 200 years old building so it has a special atmosphere what i liked. The host of the hotel is very nice person. Also the location of the property is very good, because it is close to main street with small shops and pubs and it is very close to rail station, what is very comfortable if you come to Portlaoise by train.

    Was going to put 'cheap and cheerful' but that would be doing it a disservice. It's very conveniently located, just off the motorway outside Portlaoise but much higher standard than your bog standard Travelodge hotels. Friendly staff and large rooms. Good quality food in the restaurant and plenty of cheaper eats right next door too.

    When first checking in I was presented with the breakfast menu for the following days. It had a variety of options but as I was mostly using public transport I stuck eating cereal. It is also perfectly situated halfway between the train station and the main street, with a multi-story car park and cinema across the street.

    lovely hotel with lovely staff Nice meal in the bar, however found kids meals very expensive. My daughter had plain pasta and was charged €9.50 for it and for bottle of MiWadi €2.20 each. Nice swimming pool and clean dressing area Chocolate and puzzle dropped off to room for kids which was a lovely touch.

    This was our first time staying at the Iveigh House Hotel, Portlaoise, from the arrival to our check out time everything was excellent. The personal touches, greeting upon arrival, early check requested, a location with tons of character, centrally located and a breakfast which was superb, well done !

    Very clean room. Nice leisure centre with pool, sauna and gym. Good selection of breakfast items. Very comfortable and modern. It is very accessible to get to as it is located within a big open industrial car park with other food places on offer around the hotel. Hotel is located beside the motorway

    Pleasant stay, owner was v. Nice. Room could have done with a tv that had free to air channels, as only has now tv, which needed to be paid for in order to watch. (Not great to be fair). "Welcome" note only had a list of charges for breaking the rules. Room clean and warm.

    Very well situated in the middle of town, super friendly staff, lovely spacious room, room and bathroom were spotless. Breakfast was lovely. I think Portlaoise (abd Laois in general) is not enough advertized by Tourism Ireland but this lovely town has stolen my heart!

    The room was superb. Really big and airy. Very quiet. Dinner was exceptional! Breakfast was clearly cooked by people who care about quality. In fact, “Quality”, shone through in all aspects. Highly recommend this hotel. Did I mention the underground private car park?
