When Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa, Limerick wins: choose Radisson Blu if you want on-site wellness (Rain Spa and thermal suite), a heated indoor pool with family swim times, outdoor courts, free parking, and larger rooms and event spaces — it suits families, spa breaks and meetings/weddings.
When Queens Hotel and Nightclub wins: choose Queens Hotel if you want to be in the heart of Ennis steps from Abbey Street, local attractions and nightlife; it’s smaller and geared toward guests who plan to spend evenings in bars or at the hotel’s nightclub.
