McGraths Hotel & Public Bar is often described as clean and beautifully decorated, offering a welcoming atmosphere right from the entrance. Guests frequently praise the spacious rooms that include tea, coffee, hot chocolate, biscuits, water, a fridge, and even an iron with an ironing board. The cooked breakfast is another highlight, widely enjoyed as piping hot and offering a great choice; however, some guests have occasionally found breakfast service to be disorganized.

soggy breadinsufficient options
the breakfast service felt somewhat disorganized. there weren't enough tables initially, so i had to wait. i ordered poached eggs, but i received only one egg on soggy white bread with a strange spread. the lack of sufficient breakfast options was a real letdown.
