Where to Stay

Limerick is a highly walkable city and most hotels in the city centre are within short distances of each other. Head south of King John's Castle to find a grid of streets hosting hotels, shops and restaurants.

Popular accommodation in central Limerick include the relatively new Clarion, and the Absolute Hotel and Spa, with its blend of modern amenities and 19th-century charms.

A popular country lodge is the Castle Oaks House, east of the city centre. This manor home comes with a sprinkling of chalets and a chapel (now a banquet hall) on the grounds. Head towards Adare for a better selection of charming country hotels and accommodation, with the best including the Adare County House.
