Friendly and very efficient staff, nothing too much trouble. Breakfast was great, very good location for the City we could walk everywhere. Would recommend this for a great short break.
I stayed in Charlemont Arms hotel this August and it was my best stay in the UK! The hotel staff were extra super kind and friendly! The room was spacious, light and quite, and had a very beautiful view with green hills, dawn and sunset. Breakfast was tasty and substantial. The hotel has its cosy bar and restaurant suggesting lots of various dishes and excellent desserts! So there was no need to look for a place to eat out. The location is ideal: the main bus stop, the tourist information centre, the park and sightseeing attractions are just few steps away. At last the atmosphere inside the hotel is so warm that every time I was coming back to Armagh from Belfast or another place I had a feeling that I was coming back home.
Spent two nights here. The room was good, though weirdly large for its furnishings, and the carpet was getting a bit ragged. Lovely view past the car park and razor wire to the bus station. The service was friendly and exceptionally helpful though, and the full breakfast was good. It's located very conveniently, close to both cathedrals, the Mall, and other attractions.
I knew this hotel very well 20 years ago when I lived in the town. It wasn't our first choice but due to a mix up on my part and other hotels being fully booked this is where we ended up. I had a laugh to myself that the carpet hasn't been replaced in 20 years and for all I know may have been there 20 years before that.
The entire place and atmosphere is like stepping back in time. We were directed up a couple of flights of stairs, the lift was out of order. The room was okay, it was all a bit tired looking. It wasn't dirty exactly but there was a hair in the bath and a chocolate bar wrapper in the bin. It was roomy enough and had plenty of hangers and space to set things down. There was no information in the room or volunteered by the receptionist about breakfast times. Us being us we were half an hour late but the waitress kindly got us sorted.
If you are considering a stay here be warned it is a rowdy street and the noise went on to after 3am. It was a Saturday night.
The staff were nice, the lady that checked us out the following morning was lovely.
My big gripe is the price, £90 ! A similar pricing structure operates in the nearby ' Armagh City Hotel' which is lovely, spacious, modern, clean and was on this night FULLY BOOKED. Going on the breakfast diners I would guess we were one of three rooms occupied that night. It's far far far too expensive for what it is.
It could be fantastic, it's in such a good position , it has history and is fondly regarded by locals but it's as though time stopped. Get a new carpet and some modern bedclothes and at least look as though you want to justify the cost so you customers don't feel they were robbed.
