The grounds were beautiful, the food was pretty good and the people were super friendly but the rooms really needed some upgrading they were run down the faucets were loose the heat was constantly on with no AC! The room had a weird smell. Not one of our better hotels that we stayed at in Ireland and without upgrading I probably wouldn't again.

Castle was great

Service was fantastic! Everyone was very inviting and friendly. We stayed at the castle Dec 30th. Vivian at the front desk was great, she took our families on a ghost tour throughout the castle. The bartender, wait staff and overnight porter were great as well!

I totally understand this is a very old,beautiful building which was fantastic to stay in as a Christmas treat for my family from Canada. However, this is no excuse for the horrible sickening smell of urine as soon as we entered the bedroom. The room appeared reasonably clean but on looking closer, it was nothing short of dirty in some areas. Bed was clean but on a slope . Breakfast was good and staff were pleasant and helpful.
