Absolutely incredible! Every single thing about this location was amazing. The staff, the service, the room, the restaurants, the additional activities, perfect 10!
This is the MOST amazing piece of Ireland! The people were absolutely incredible, the service at the top of the scale and the quality of the food, the atmosphere and the history made it a magical experience! You MUST go at least once in your life.
Our stay was phenomenal! Clay shooting and then a walk of the wooded, lovely, grounds. You stay in the actual castle! We had our best nights sleep here. The staff were over the top helpful.
This property was very luxurious castle which I would say is a must when traveling throughout Ireland. The rooms were well equipped and without a doubt had the best beds we have slept in. Cocktails were on point, and the staff was highly accommodating. The breakfast was amazing, and a perfect send off for the last stop on our journey through Ireland
It doesn’t get much better than this. Superb in comfort and service. Bring your golf clubs.if you want to visit the Cliffs of Moher it is a great excuse to stay here.
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.
If I could give Dromoland Castle 10 stars I would!! Absolutely gorgeous. The service we received was incredible, the rooms were spacious, gorgeous and very comfortable, the grounds were beautiful and the food was delicious.
We were a group of 3 couples celebrating a 40th wedding anniversary and Dromoland didn’t disappoint. From the moment we arrived we were made feel so welcome. Our dinner was fabulous and all the staff were amazing . This is a real gem.We will be back soon 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.
Property was amazing. Staff was mostly quick and knowledgeable. Did have a mix up with late check out as we had a spa appointment that ended at check out time and they said they woukd give us late check out and that did not happen. Our bathroom wall about the tub had a think layer of dust on it that fell into tub when you wiped it. Luggage guys were great. Front dest was fast and polite. Servers/bartwnders were good. Not sureidstay there again for thecost.
It’s impossible to criticize Dromoland Castle and its superior staff! We celebrated our 50th- wedding anniversary here on the exact date of our marriage 50 years ago, when we also stayed here for part of our honeymoon. This nostalgic trip was met with such gracious treatment. The front gate greeted and congratulated us; the check-in staff in the lobby did the same. Our room was beyond our expectations (and also much improved over the 50 years)! We were upgraded to a beautiful corner room in one of the towers, with sublime views of the grounds. When do you ever hear the words,”Everything in the mini-bar and room is complementary”? Special 50th-anniversary treats in the room were such a nice touch. Breakfasts were fantastic, from the buffet to the cooked-to-order; traditional full-Irish breakfast and the shaksuka were delicious. Don’t miss the scones. Service in the bar was cozy, friendly, and prompt. Dinners at the Fig Tree were equally grand…along with the surprise dessert. Golf was excellent with a fine staff, a first-class course, and bag tag and tee perks. The best treat for me, while the husband golfed, was the falconry experience. Mike shared his passionate expertise with these birds, and interacting with falcons, hawks, and owls was unforgettable. Wish we knew the names of all the great staff who made this visit so memorable. Shout-outs to Aidan in the lobby, Mike the falconer, and all the outstanding members of Dromoland. Thank you for everything.
