Stayed here several times before but a little disappointed this time. Requested a King Bed but got 2 singles pushed together. Highly uncomfortable and annoying. In the Cocktail bar, only 2 bar stools available which has a seriously detrimental effect on the possibility of interaction with other guests. Overall experience was disappointing. Won’t be back

Can’t wait to stay again!
Dromoland Castle was absolutely magical! The garden and grounds were stunning and the castle was indescribable. But the staff was my favourite part. They make you feel like family while there and we’ll be talking about our stay until the next time we get to go. Make sure to do the activities ….the archery, clay shooting and horse carriage specifically. And splurge on a specialty cocktail in the lounge at night, it’s worth every penny. The food was delicious, the room was perfect, exploring the castle was neat. I just can’t say enough good things about this hotel. Do not hesitate to book it. I will be travelling back to Ireland from Canada specifically to stay here again.

A lovely hotel in an old 18th century castle. Excellent service, a huge park with various activities and a golf course. Very good dinner options. A very quiet place to enjoy a couple of nights.
