Reviews for Dromoland Castle Hotel
A royal stay in an Irish castle!
Incredible stay in an historic Irish castle. Service is top-tier all-around. Our room (Queen Anne Courtyard) was exceptional, with every amenity you could want. Incredible food and cocktails throughout the stay (Earl of Thomond is first class!), with one of the most amazing breakfast views you could imagine. We took the falconry session and would highly recommend this unique, educational and fun outing. Wish we had more time here!

Oh My Gosh
Recently stayed at Dromoland Castle Hotel as part of a Wild Atlantic Music Tour. Stayed a total of 4 nights. I'll make this simple, if you can afford it, and I say that with an underlined AFFORD it, you will never stay in a finer establishment! Service was EXCELLENT, food, EXCELLENT. My wife and our friends had the opportunity to dine in their formal dining room for dinner before the tour began, the Earl of Thomand dining room was amazing. The saddle of venison was absolutely delicious. The hotel offers every activity you would ever want to try, 18 hole golf course, simulator and academy, falconry, archery, spa, hiking, fishing, tennis, clay pigeon shooting(which I did), afternoon tea, tour of the castle, etc. Accommodations are also amazing. Now, does this level of service and room come at a price, absolutely. However, come in the winter when their rates are lower and you will have a time to remember.

Incredible
We had the most incredible experience staying here in February. The building, the facilities, the staff, the food, the history, everything is just amazing. I'm so in awe of how incredible the staff are - Margaret, Aiden, Darragh, Conn, Ricardo, just to name a few. I cannot recommend Dromoland Castle enough. We are getting married here in August and I just cannot wait!
