Best rooms
If you prefer a quieter room, request a room on a higher floor (above the 3rd floor) as the hotel's floors above this level are likely to be away from the main road (Blackthorn Drive) and any potential street noise. Avoid rooms near the lift, as the hotel's 4-star rating suggests a compact design, and the lift may be centrally located, potentially near guest rooms.
Consider requesting rooms on the 2nd or 3rd floors, as they are likely to be away from the ground floor and the potential street noise from Sandyford Road. Additionally, being on a higher floor may also reduce the likelihood of noise from the lift, assuming it is located on a lower floor.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the service entrance or the hotel's bar, as these areas tend to generate more noise, especially if you're a light sleeper. The hotel's proximity to the road may also mean that rooms on the lower floors (1st-3rd) may experience some traffic noise.
Rooms on the ground floor may be best avoided due to potential street noise from Sandyford Road, as well as possible noise from the hotel's service entrance or bar, if they are located on this floor.
