    Heard this on Today FM this morning but nothing on the website. Apparently Carlton are doing 50% off tomorrow on April Fools day or so Ian Dempsey would have you believe. In any case their Flights/Dinner/2B&B for €159pp is fairly decent. http://www.carlton.ie/special_offers

    Again if this isn't true all complaints to Ian Dempsey, but if it is - all thanks go to cson :P

    Yep, it's for real and is on their website now. Only applies to B&B rates though, no din dins.

    Thanks a million for that might try book a cheap night away tomorrow :D

    It is true. Cheap hotels for all!

    Of the ones I've stayed in;

    Galway: Old Ryan Hotel. Nice with a decent leisure centre and nice bar & restaurant. Very kid friendly which is something to take into account for both sides of the fence - great for families not so much for those looking for a quiet weekend break. It's a little out of the city too so you'd be well advised to bring the car.

    Kinsale: Opposite to Galway; very much geared toward the couply quiet weekend away. Nice leisure centre and nice rooms. Bar is a little small and lacking imo but the restaurant has fantastic views over the lee. Bit off the beaten tract though, a good bit out from Kinsale so again the car is a must.

    Dublin Airport: Basci airport hotel, free shuttle nice lobby/bar and standard rooms. A good place to book if your from the country and heading out on an early flight the next morning; its usually worth the money not to have to get up at 1/2am and drive or bus it to the airport.

    I booked the shearwater galway around 9pm with the offer. Its been available since around 6pm.
    Just enters FOOLS in the promo section.

    Maybe it's just me but this deal seems rubbish - I tried this for the Carlton Dublin airport and it was giving me E79 for 1 night B+B for 2 ppl. Does this mean it's normally E158?

    You can get the room for E85 at any time. I have stayed at the Carlton Dublin airport before and it's a good hotel but not worth E158 for 2 ppl B+B.

    I emailed them asking to confirm if the E79 includes the 50% off but have not yet got a reply.

    I'll be using www.lidl-breaks.ie instead - used one earlier in the week and it was very good value for money.

    Which hotel was this for?

    I am looking for Carlton Dublin ariport in June and it's all coming up as E79.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 529 ✭✭✭Elliee


    It was for shearwater.
    Maybe worth a phone call or if you write on there FB page carlton hotels they get back to you pretty quick.
    79 isnt a good deal for airport hotel. In fact thats pretty standard for around the airport.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 374 ✭✭Murta


    Mmm, seems to be a con. Rates for Dublin airport aren't any cheaper than what I've paid on several occasions in the past year.

    I agree, I checked it out for May at the Airport Carlton 79euro on the "special offer" and their standard rate is 89euro hardly a bargain or 50% off!!

    just back from our 50% off deal, went to bunclody carlton, was a lovely hotel, food was fab, meal deal before [EMAIL="6@30"]6:30[/EMAIL] for e20, had dinner in the restaurant very very nice, but for me the hotel in Ballinalsoe is a wee bit nicer, food is fabulous in B'sloe. Would recommend the spa if you can, wish i was there now :o
