Reading these other reviews I'm amazed at the praise The Lismore gets. The hotel is old fashioned, the staff were the basic average of what you'd expect at a hotel and the scambled egg was disgusting. I don't usually give bad reviews but then we normally stay in better places. This was a last resort as my boyfriend had to... more

Easy to find. Check in was very efficient. the room was extremely comfy and the shower was amongst the best. We managed to squeeze in a late drink at the bar and the owner was extremely accomodating considering how nailed I was. Had a great nights sleep but had a filthy swine of a hangover. Check out was just as... more

We stayed here with a large group of friends attending a function in the area, if we had been on our own we would have left within minutes of arriving but it would have been rude to our friends that had booked for us to have left without them so we made the best of it. The only good thing... more

This is without doubt the worst hotel I have ever checked into. I took one look at the room and told the manager/owner that I would not be staying. This hotel brings shame on the UK hotel establishment. The sooner the management is changed and the place closed down, the better. The current owners should be ashamed. The whole place... more
