Win a Break for Two in The Limerick Strand Hotel

Limerick Strand Hotel - bedroomThis month you have the opportunity to win a short break for two people sharing in a hotel that is well located by the river Shannon in central Limerick, has a pleasant ambience, with great views from the upper floors and provides a good place to explore some of the foods of the region - the Limerick Strand Hotel

Just across the Sarsfield Bridge from the main commercial heart of Limerick, the Limerick Strand Hotel is a relatively new seven-storey hotel.

Accessed from the rear, it has a pleasant, unexpectedly quiet ambience in the spacious ground floor areas and takes full advantage of views from the upper floors with picture windows, balconies and terraces - and glass-fronted lifts (blue-lit at night) allow guests with key cards to enjoy the city sights and the distant views of the Galtee Mountains.

Suites with balconies are especially desirable, but accommodation throughout the 184 bedrooms is pleasant and comfortable, and the smart bathrooms all have bath and shower.

Although equally attractive for leisure breaks, the Limerick Strand Hotel is especially well equipped for business guests - an executive floor has a dedicated lounge, and all rooms have laptop safe, high-speed internet access, plus cable and on-demand tv and individual air conditioning. There’s a choice of 14 meeting rooms for groups of various sizes, and cutting edge conference technology.

Leisure and off duty business guests will all appreciate the Energize Leisure Club, which has a 20m pool, plus children’s pool, sauna, steam room and Jacuzzi, also a gym and beauty therapy rooms for both men and women.

Food is available at either the elegantly appointed River Restaurant, or the Terrace Café and Bar, with a large heated terrace.

Executive Chef Tom Flavin works hard to make food provenance and seasonality a point of difference throughout the hotel, and especially in The River Restaurant, which offers an above average dining experience, and where a good breakfast is also served.

The kitchen team also produces a successful homemade pantry range called The Secret Ingredient, allowing diners to bring home a taste of Limerick.

The lucky winner of this free competition will have a short break for two people sharing (subject to availability), to include:

•  2 nights bed & breakfast in a luxurious Executive bedroom with 200MB complimentary wifi
•  Dinner on evening of your choice
•  Complimentary access to Energize Leisure
•  10% discount at Bliss Beauty and Day Spa
