Powerscourt Hotel, Autograph Collection

I have written many TripAdvisor reviews over the years, but unfortunately lost access to my previous account and am starting from scratch. However, after arriving at Powerscourt Hotel, I knew this was one property I absolutely wanted to take the time to review. I have traveled extensively for more than 30 years, both for business and pleasure, and as a Marriott Lifetime Platinum member, I have been fortunate to stay at some truly beautiful properties throughout Italy, France, Spain, Mexico and across the United States. Hands down, Powerscourt has now earned a place among my top five hotel experiences. Anyone who is a seasoned traveler knows that truly exceptional service rarely happens by accident. It is usually a reflection of how a property is managed and how its staff is trained—and that is certainly evident at Powerscourt. Although I have not yet had the pleasure of meeting General Manager Eamonn Casey personally, I corresponded with him prior to our arrival, and his graciousness and attention to our stay carried through from the moment we entered the hotel. Our welcome was unforgettable. Mario, one of the Front Office Managers, was absolutely wonderful—warm, gracious, professional and genuinely interested in making our stay special. The accommodations arranged for our group exceeded our expectations, and the thoughtful welcome touches waiting in our suite made an already special arrival even more memorable. And then there is the property itself. The grounds and surroundings are simply breathtaking. The view from our balcony is spectacular, and although we haven't yet had the opportunity to visit the famous Powerscourt Gardens, I certainly hope we can during our stay. What has impressed me most, however, is the overall spirit and feeling of this hotel. There are beautiful luxury hotels all over the world, but not all of them make you feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. Powerscourt does. From the service to the accommodations, the magnificent setting and the sense of tranquility, it delivers exactly what you hope for from a special getaway—a place to unwind, relax and rejuvenate. For a first visit, Powerscourt has made an extraordinary impression on me. Beautiful property, breathtaking surroundings, first-class service and, most importantly, people who understand genuine hospitality. All the boxes are checked. I would return without hesitation.

Excellent hotel, professional staff and location, Grounds are fabulous to walk around, only downer was the weather, will be back.

Powerscourt Hotel is an amazing hotel. We just stayed one night. The room was really spacious, best bed ever - so comfortable . Dinner was delicious in the Sally Gap Brasserie & breakfast had lots of choices emphasising quality Irish produce. Unfortunately I didn’t get to avail of any spa treatments but enjoyed a swim in the pool. The staff were very friendly & helpful. Definitely worth it

I had the pleasure of visiting Powerscourt for an overnight stay recently. From start to finish, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and felt the resort was a different level to other hotels. The staff were very professional ensuring our every need was met, the facilities in the spa were five star and the stay was topped off with lovely food and drinks. I would highly recommend the hotel for a weekend getaway.

It is a very beautiful property. Our service was really lovely especially Mossy throughout our stay - he was very helpful and went the extra mile ! We had a few issues while we were there but the staff quickly took care of things to make it right . Makayla reception manager was just lovely and so helpful!! Our only complaint was breakfast. We paid for the bed and breakfast package and there was an upcharge for things like eggs Benedict or omelets. Breakfast was also very crowded and a line to get in one morning. Overall we loved the stay and really enjoyed using the bikes to explore the grounds.
