1091.0. "NEED HOTEL IN CLONMEL AREA" by DRAC::CRISTINA () Mon Jul 06 1992 06:19

	I'm coming to Ireland for two weeks next august with a group of
	friends. We will arrive in Dublin august 17 and we will rent cars. 
	Any suggestions about restaurants, hotels, B&B,places...?

	We are planning to go to Clonmel for two or three days starting 29.8.
	and we are looking for a cheap hotel or B&B in that area. Can anyone
	advise me on some place to stay?

	thanks in advance for any inputs.

1091.1to name a few ...CTHQ1::COADYMon Jul 06 1992 12:0218
    
    Quiet a few years since I lived there, but the Hotel Minella and the
    Clonmel Arms were the top DEC hotels then.  Now DEC is gone, I'm not
    sure what its like, or the rates etc.  They were reasonably good hotels
    but no means super - they were both old and reasonably well renovated.
    
    From what I recall there were loads of excellent B&B's - particularly
    on the Cahir Rd and Mountain Rd.
    
    Restaurants - quite a few.  When I arrived there in '83 there were
    hardly any, except in the hotels.  When I left in '88 there were loads,
    including 2 excellent Chinese ones, andmany contemporary Irish ones -
    ie, lots of expensive food.    Good ones in Cashel and also in other
    towns near by.   
    
    Either way, should be easy to finf a place to stay and reasonable food.

    29/8/92 is right bang slap in the middle of the Fleadh Cheoil na
    hEireann (28-31 Aug.). Accomodation in the immediate vacinity will be very
    difficult to obtain.

	Hi Cristina,

		I realise 10 miles isn't exactly "immediate vicinity", but
	I've got a B&B to recommend to you. Its called Hollymount House in
	Cahir, 10 miles from Cluain Meala. It's very well appointed and in
	a beautifully scenic location up in the Galtee Mountains. As a few
	have stated already, Clonmel will be heaving around Fleadh time so
	you may just have to move outside the confines. For Hollymount Hse,
	contact Margaret Neville (353 52 41580/41327)....mention my name 
	and she may even give you a discount!   

	Re -1, thats also some very good advice from that well known


			Clarrrrrrrrreman
