We are planning a trip to Athlone for say 2-3 nights.

We are a couple and 1-yr old child.

We are trying to pick a hotel. A swimming pool for the baby is a necessity.

As far as I can see, the choices are the Sheraton and Radisson in the town centre and the Springs hotel in Monksland??

One issue is the distance from town - the Springs looks good, and seems to get good reviews, but it is 4-5km from the centre..............

I plan on touring a few pubs each night, so the 4-5km would mean two taxis..............

So unless the Springs was way cheaper, it seems to be between the Sheraton and Radisson.

The Sheraton seems a tad more upmarket, so of course it will probablybe dearer.

Any opinions / advice?
