Hostels in Limerick?

by wombles

I know there was a post about this earlier in the year but I am wondering if anyonen can point me to a website which may list some, or even a, hostel in Limerick? I can't seem to find any. Since I have a car I will probably end up in a nearby town instead but I would still be interested to know if there are actually any hostels in Limerick....

Limerick is not the most attractive city in Ireland. I would be looking at a neighbouring town such as Gort or Ennis

Thanks for your suggestions.... The only reference I can find is a hostel in Pery Square. I find it bizzare that a city the size of Limerick doesn't seem to have a full complement of accomodation types.

Re: Hostels in Limerick?

by leics

Limerick does have a full complement of accommodation types: hostel, hotel, b&b... why should it have more than one hostel if the custom is not there? It's not a huge city with mega-tourism. Most Irish/UK towns don't even have one hostel!

Travel Tips for Limerick

Jokes about limerick

by sourbugger

There are many, many jokes about limerick as the city has a reputation for being the crime capital of Ireland, and is invariably referred to as 'stab city'.

Most jokes are the usual recycled rubbish that were orginally coined to have a go at blacks/ jews/ women etc etc...

I will however leave you a couple that at least don't fall into that genre.

1)

Q: why does the river run through limerick?
A: because if it walked it would get mugged.

2)

Little boy and his mother from Limerick are in a taxi in Dublin. In the course of the conversation the taxi driver refers to 'stab city'. The little boy whispers to his mother "if he said that back at home they would shoot him".

by kathycollins

Irish-Americans,don't make the mistake of believing we are the same culture because of a shared language. The citizens of Ireland are a fine, friendly people, justifiably proud of their unique heritage! As an Irish American, I relished the opportunity to explore the land of my ancestors, and felt a connectedness that is hard to explain.
English is NOT the native tongue though it is the most common language. In the Gaeltecht areas you can hear Irish spoken, and see road signs in the native language.
Take the time to get to know a few Irishmen...a taxi driver in Belfast, a walking guide in Clare, or a fishing ghilly on any river or lake. The PEOPLE of a country are the unique and more interesting part of travel. In Ireland you'll find the friendly, courteous, helpful souls that make THIS land enchanting!

Sports Arena of the University of Limerick

by Kristina1701

The sports arena is a relatively new building and houses Ireland's largest indoor swimming pool (50m). Furthermore there's a cardio fitness centre, a 4 court sports hall, a 225 metre 3 lane suspended jogging track as well as a 60m, 6 lane indoor sprint track. Outdoor facilities include football/rugby pitches, tennis courts, 400m athletic track and a floodlight Astro Turf pitch.

Milkmarket

by annamantere

On saturday mornings people from countryside come to the town and sell their products. You can get vegetables, fruits, handycrafts etc. The atmosphere here is like you`ve gone back in time. It´s great. People are fantastic. When I was here for the first times I didn´t understand a word the farmers were saying to me. they´ve got a bit of a accent there you see... Again; talk to the people (even if you didn´t understand a word -it´s worth it) and enjoy the atmosphere!

Discover the joy of taking an Irish guided walk along the Greenway of the Burren and the Cliffs. Burren Hill Walks is an excellent guide service. They can be called at 0654-77168 or 088-654810 to arrange a day's walking tour.Spending a day walking with someone who knows the area is a real joy and pleasure. They can tell you stories (the Irish are Wonderful Storytellers!!) explain the geology, history, and geography...make the experience of being there a personal exploration in an other culture.
