Dromoland Castle Hotel

We recently stayed here in a stateroom for 2 nights to cap off our tour of Ireland. This castle stay exceeded our already high expectations. The service here is impeccable and it was fun just to chat up with the staff and hear their stories and experiences. The room was very large and had plenty of storage. It was low season and the hotel only had a few guests while we were there so it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. The golf course is right by the castle and there is a pool and fitness room by the Pro shop. It is by no means an inexpensive hotel but I would encourage you to at least stay a couple of nights if you wanted to check a castle stay off your bucket list. We didn’t want to leave and could have easily stayed there for a few weeks. You will not be disappointed if you stay here.

We returned ,after a long lapse,to this fantastic and almost magical place. We just got really busy with life and kind of forgot about just how special it was. It’s the best place to stay in Ireland. From the moment you drive through the gates,it’s wow all the way Staff of Dromoland,take a bow 👏

Thoroughly enjoyed our recent bank holiday weekend at Dromoland Castle. The quality of our stay continues to improve with each visit, thanks to the exceptional service provided by the hotel staff in all areas. The breakfast offered a wide selection of hot and cold dishes. Dinner at the Earl of Thomond restaurant was superb, featuring outstanding service and exquisite cuisine in a beautiful setting. Dined at the Fig Tree restaurant, appreciating its casual ambience, excellent service, and diverse menu options. Would highly recommend Dromoland Castle for a luxurious, memorable, and relaxing getaway, and I look forward to returning again in the future.

Very grand entrance through extensive grounds and golf course. A magnificent building. Helpful attentive porters to greet one on arrival, valet parking, help with luggage (necessary because of the 12 steep steps to the front door. Very elaborate foyer including full suit of armour. Sumptuous furnishings throughout. Dinner in both restaurants high quality (be warned that choices are not necessarily as shown on web pages). Breakfast buffet has huge range of foods, well stocked. Sadly cooked breakfast a let down. Saturday morning in main dining room the poor timing meant toast, tea all cold before cooked food arrived...lukewarm Sunday morning in the temporary dining room (gorgeous sun filled room) was a fiasco....3 requests for milk before it arrived, 2 requests for toast which took 17 minutes to arrive and 27 minutes from order to arrival for cooked food. Meanwhile tea and toast are stone cold. This was repeated at 4 other tables in our line of vision. * don't book in on rugby match days....the TVs are tiny and non HD*

This is the second time I spent three days at dromoland castle.i write this review as I lay in bed at ashford castle. I wish I never left dromoland. The service at dromoland is far superior than that of ashford castle. Ashford castle reminds me of a las vegas resort. Screaming kids long wait times for lunch or dinner. If I could get my money back I would check out tomorrow. Look for review on tik tok.
