    The Tower is decent, it has a nice swimming pool and sauna too. Handy for the inevitable hangover.

    Would go with the Tower. Havant been in the Marina in years but I know the Tower has been recently renovated.

    The Tower would be the best out of those! Would also recommend Treacy's if you're after a late, late bar!

    Treacy's is a good craic if a gang of ye on the beer. Good residents bar and bar opens early on Sunday morning with music. Also has a gym and a pool.

    Uisce Beatha is a great bar with lively music on most nights. I think the music starts early enough there too, so it would be a good place to kick off the night. Tully's, Downses and Tom Mahers are also nearby. All good bars with decent atmosphere. Tully's have live music most nights also I think.

    Treacy's Hotel can be hit or miss when it comes to quality of rooms, and breakfast. The Fitzwilton Hotel is another option if you wanted to stay near Train Station. Out of all hotels suggested, I would opt for the Tower Hotel. Within easy reach of lots of pubs, restaurants, train station, bus station, etc.

    Dooleys is another great central option & the residents bar serves late.

    Tower Hotel out of your options above.

    However I would usually opt for Granville hotel, service cannot be beaten there!

    Treacys to be near train station and live music, like uisce beatha next door. Fantastic pub
