Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The room was nice and the food was brilliant. The brownie was delicious and the breakfast was amazing. Dezlino took good care of us. We loved our stay. The place is just 10 mins drive from main street and castle so it is convenient as well. Definitely looking forward to come back.

We went for lunch to the restaurant of The Hoban Hotel for my elderly Dad's birthday. We frequent the restaurant quite often as it veryaccessible to get my Dad around in his wheelchair or on his walking frame. On the day, our visit was made comfortable and pleasant and the food is always good. Our waiter Dez was very attentive and was friendly and patient towards us, including my six year old son.

Dez made dinner amazing. We were extremely tired from traveling all day, and Dez made the evening smooth and relaxing. The house made curry was phenomenal. The Guinness was fresh and the brownies (taken to go) were just what we needed. Would highly recommend

Dining at 1801 was delicious. Fast service, food was excellent, and Dez was very attentive. Always checking in to ensure our experience was above expectations. The pasta of the day with the tomato cream sauce was amazing! The kids beef was the best my son ever had!

The Hoban was a lovely stay. Enormous room and amazing breakfast at very reasonable prices. What set this visit apart though was the service - particularly from Dez. Friendly, attentive, and engaging he made us feel extremely welcome. We had dinner in the restaurant too which was convenient.
