"Nestled along the banks of the Shannon River, The Strand Hotel in Limerick is a true gem and my preferred sanctuary in Ireland. It masterfully combines an unbeatable location with impeccable service. From its exceptionally clean and charming environment to its staff—who radiate a blend of warm Irish hospitality, keen knowledge, and genuine helpfulness—every detail feels carefully considered. The city center is a mere two-minute stroll away, making it effortless to explore on foot. A standout feature is the secure underground garage, (at a cost of twelve euro a day) which offers direct, private access to every floor, allowing you the freedom to come and go with ease. Coupled with its wonderful food and outstanding overall service, The Strand Hotel is, without a doubt, Ireland's premier choice for an unforgettable and affordable stay.

Founded in 1780 by Lady Hartstonge and several other benefactors as a “fever and lock” hospital, St. John’s Hospital in Limerick famously treated patients during the Great Famine of 1845-1847. This was one of Ireland’s greatest ever public health catastrophes, and a time when great strain was placed on the health systems and entire fabric of society. Had it not been for public hospitals, the situation could have been significantly worse.
