I just had a look at the google view of the hotel and there doesn't seem to be much parking. Is there a multistory/underground?
I'm hoping to take the T25 (hi-top) and wonder if I'll have clearance issues?
Hi - I am a member of the gym at the Killeshin and I have to say the parking isn't great. Hard to get parking in front of the hotel as there are so few spaces. The underground car park isn't great either. Lots of room but difficult to negotiate because of the pillars. I have a large MPV and find it tricky at times. Also there is a height restriction going into the car park, can't remember how low it is but not sure if a hi-top would make it. Have you phoned the hotel to make sure all is in order? Heard they were closed for a few days due to water issues. Best to ring ahead to check. The hotel is on the Dublin road and there is a side road beside it where you may get parking but I would not park on the Dublin Road. If you can't get parking in the hotel your best bit would be Portlaoise Hospital which is just down a bit and within walking distance of the hotel. The entrance is on the "Block Road", not the main gates, you take a left as you are driving down the Dublin Road heading into Portlaoise. Its paid parking but not too steep (for a few hours) and safe, especially if you are in a camper van. As I mentioned before I am a ten minute drive from the hotel if anyone wants to park in the cul de sac where I live - I have a car and could drive you to the hotel. My number is (086) 193**** if you want to text me.
