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.

Excellent every day. Visited two years ago, and this time chose this as our first stop on our 25th anniversary trip. Impeccably clean, gorgeously decorated. Impressed that even the younger staff in the restaurant/bar were extremely attentive, professional, and helpful. The breakfast is so lovely, and includes many gluten free options. A reliably excellent choice!

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.

I stayed one night before an international flight, and I'm so glad I did. I wish it had been longer. Beautiful property! Very fun to explore, with a pleasing mix of old and new. Cool art. Very good food. Room was small but comfortable. Could open the window, which was nice. Nice bathroom with GREAT lighting. Complementary water is always appreciated. Nice little outside sitting areas along the driveway. Also there's a lovely little cemetary a few min walk up the road. Just very nice all around.
