Lovely Inn in Ashford, Wicklow Co.

We could not have had a nicer stay at this Inn. All of the employees were nice and accommodating to our family traveling with two small children. They went out of their way many times to make sure we were comfortable. The food was also excellent and the service at the restaurant and bar was outstanding. I would recommend this for couples or families traveling on the area.

Wedding visit

Really enjoyed our stay. We were attending a family wedding nearby. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, the food was excellent and the bed particularly comfortable. Extra lighting would have been useful in the bathroom as it was a bit dark. The hotel is located in a lovely area with a wonderful garden centre and some good dress shops in Ashford itself.

Very friendly staff, uniqueness of old and new, excellent welcome (pot of tea) before going to room! History of name of the hotel and just the general feeling that you had arrived at a place where the owners and staff were concerned that your stay was important to them.

Everything about this property was spot on. I have always wanted to run an establishment like this and if I ever do I would try to replicate it to a "T". My son loved the space just to throw a ball. There wasn't an opportunity where he didn't want to check out the waterfall right by the outdoor seating. My wife loved the room and bathroom, thinking that we had been given the Bridal Suite. All of us enjoyed the delicious ecsquisitly prepared food and the welcoming yet fun atmosphere of the restaurant. We could have stayed here our entire 2 weeks and still had memories for a lifetime. The proprietors and staff care about your stay and it shows through and through.

Wonderful!

We had an amazing time! Everyone at the Chester Beatty Inn was incredibly friendly, cheerful, & helpful. The food was absolutely delicious. The breakfast was the best we had in all of Ireland. The rooms are charming & clean, and the hotel is well-located. Perfect trip! We will absolutely stay there again.
