Beautiful experience

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 21 hours ago

Beautiful experience. The rooms are amazing for size and comfort, and the grounds are out of this world. We stayed two nights - and hope to come back - and had a delicious meal and wonderful experience on the Hawk Walk. A big shout out to the lovely folk who work there- they are so keen nd and courteous.

Magical stay

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 day ago

This stay was a very special trip for my mother and me, and from the moment we arrived at Dromoland Castle, it felt completely magical. The staff were absolutely amazing – some of the friendliest and most attentive we have ever encountered. We genuinely couldn’t have asked for more. We arrived early as we had spa treatments booked, and to our delight our room was already ready. We were shown down to our beautiful room before heading to the spa, which was an incredible experience. I would highly recommend anyone staying here to treat themselves to the spa – it was pure relaxation and the perfect start to our break. We enjoyed a very peaceful, chilled stay with beautiful walks around the stunning grounds. We also had lunch and drinks, and once again the service was absolutely fabulous – 10 out of 10, not a single fault. That evening we dined in The Fig Tree restaurant and it was simply spectacular. The food was delicious, beautifully presented and full of flavour. Everything about the experience was flawless. We then returned to the castle bar for a few lovely drinks, soaking in the elegant atmosphere – highly recommended. The next morning, breakfast was equally impressive – a freshly cooked breakfast with tea and coffee overlooking the stunning lake. It was the perfect end to a truly wonderful stay. Dromoland Castle is an unforgettable experience and most definitely worth the trip. We will cherish the memories and would love to return again.

Exceptional

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 6 days ago

Dromoland Castle is absolutely stunning. The castle itself is grand and the grounds seem endless to explore. The walled gardens are magnificent, complemented by a woodland fairy trail, golf course, lake, and an array of activities like archery and cycling, which we hope to have more time to enjoy on a future visit. Guests can learn about the estate’s rich history through a guided walking tour. The staff truly go above and beyond. Every member we encountered was incredibly kind and accommodating, and we were even upgraded in one of our rooms, which was such a delightful surprise. Breakfast was one of the finest we’ve had in Ireland, offering fresh dishes and an expansive selection. We also had afternoon tea, which was lovely, and the pistachio desserts were especially memorable. Throughout the hotel, there are comfortable lounges and quiet spaces where we spent our evenings playing board games. It couldn’t have been more perfect—an exceptional stay!

Dromoland Castle is inspiring but the staff’s professionalism is the real treasure

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 week ago

Truely remarkable experience at Dromoland Castle. From check in to check out, the staff are courteous, professional and welcoming from reception, restaurant / bar, room attendants and ground staff are all amazing. Complimentary room upgrade and breakfast provided as part of my credit card loyalty program was appreciated and welcomed. Beverage and food quality is excellent and delivered with prompt efficiency service with the castle and surrounding grounds and sporting activities inspiring. Would definitely stay at Dromoland Castle again.

Excellent

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

From start to finish we had a magical weekend at Dromoland Castle. From the personal welcome at reception to the gorgeous bedroom, beautifully refurbished since our last stay, with a modern, luxurious and spacious bathroom to the pots of tea by the fire in the gallery. Can't wait to book a return visit.
