This was the highlight of the trip for my kids. Staying at a castle is pretty sweet but the Dromoland service made all the difference. From personalized little gifts to the kids, to the falconry and archery experiences, to the bike rides in the beautiful property. We don't golf, but the golf course looked very nice. We will be back!

I’ve never stayed anywhere where the staff was as friendly as the ones at Dromoland. Absolutely stand out amazing!!!! We went with our three kids and from the moment we got there they were enchanted. Stuffed animals waiting for them in the rooms. The kindness and fun of everyone interacting with them was outstanding. And Mike with the falconry gave us the best, most thorough, interesting experience I could have ever asked for. It was such a fairy tale experience.

The investors are charging a premium price for an okay experience. I know a castle should warrant some premium but I have had overall better room, bed and bathroom every where else I have stayed. The toilet did not flush in our room. The breakfast was excellent. The dinner was average and overpriced for the menu offered. The smoked salmon amuse bouche was awful. Did the chef even taste it? We had to open the windows to get airflow into the room so we could sleep. The staff was excellent and are doing all they can to make you successful.
