Directly accessible from the main terminal building at Shannon Airport, the Park Inn Shannon Airport (formerly the Great Southern Hotel) is in an unexpectedly lovely location overlooking the estuary and, with its views and rather gracious atmosphere, it retains a little of the old romance of flight.
On the practical side it also offers unbeatable convenience for travellers recovering from or preparing for international flights.
