Stayed here for our 25th wedding anniversary and it was absolutely amazing. The staff were so friendly and helpful, rooms were clean and beautiful and the atmosphere of the castle setting and all of its historical pieces made it that much more memorable. We will definitely be returning, especially to see our favourite breakfast manager Leandro Silva.

The hotel is beautiful. The rooms were clean and huge. The bed was super comfortable and the bathroom was a full size shower and counter, which is not common in Europe. Breakfast was good and so was lunch using room service. We would definitely want to stay here again.

a beautiful castle just outside of downtown Dublin City. wonderful very attentive staff, gorgeous surroundings. Clontarf is a great suburb of Dublin with beautiful views of the bay and the city. a great place to unwind while still being close enough to the city to do what you want.

Delightful place in a quiet suburb, not too far from Dublin city center, and close to the water. Excellent accomodations and service. For a solo traveler, it was comftorbale, safe, and secure. On site restaurants were great. Free wifi and parking were a bonus. Definitely would stay again.

My daughter wanted to stay in a castle but the prices didn't match our budget. I found this hotel and it was the best for both of us. The hotel is beautiful and the beds are soft and comfortable. Only downside, which would have made me reconsider staying there, is that it is a 20 minute taxi ride from city center. As much as I enjoyed the hotel, for the quick time I had in Dublin, I would have preferred to be closer.
