Clean room, attentive staff, great food and service at restaurants. The castle itself was amazing, great artwork and history. The location is about 3 miles outside of Dublin center circle. Which is not far but due to Dublins layout plan on 30 minute commute to get to popular pubs, shopping and cathedrals. As long as you allow for travel time you won’t miss anything. We definitely be coming back. Don’t delay and plan your trip today. We did 10 holidays this year and this was definitely one of the best!

We rang ahead to request early check-in as we were driving from Belfast for a 3pm wedding at the hotel and needed time to get ourselves and our baby ready. Although staff said they’d “try their best,” when we arrived at 1:20pm the room still wasn’t ready, and it felt like no consideration had been given to our request. We ended up having to get ready in the guest toilets before the wedding. Very disappointing service. The room was nice and clean.
