Ennis lodging advice

Could someone give me advice on where to stay in Ennis? I am looking for a moderate priced place($100-$200)that is not to far from Ennis town center. Would love to know anyone's favorites for hotel or B&B. Thank You!

I haven't stayed in Ennis but just outside of town at the Lakeside Country Lodge. (http://www.lakeside.ie/). It's a beautiful place and will cost you less than the price you are looking at. Probably around 100-120 (depending on the exchange)for two. The location is beautiful and it's about a 5-10 minute ride into town.

I've stayed at the Old Ground, the Temple Gate and the Queen's Hotels, a GuestHouse called Derrynane that's not there anymore, the Abbey Tourist Hostal (Temporary Closure), and Rose Cottage B&B. My favorite is John Madden's (managed by son, Paul Madden) Temple Gate. It is in the Center of Ennis & has ample parking. I stayed at the Temple Gate on 4-occasions, most of the others just once.

At the Queen's Hotel they'll warn you of the noise when you check in; I had no problem with that because I planned to be part of the noise problem at Cruise's Pub, next door (Trad Irish music every night).

I agree with Nedsireland about Temple Gate, I've only stayed three times but two times I stayed 4 to 5 nights. I've looked at Old Ground and it looks good also. Both are right in the center of town.

Good Luck, Joan

We were very happy with Grey Gables:

One night in Grey Gables was "okay" when we stayed in April. 2 nights would have been too much. I posted a short review here back in May.
