Powerscourt Hotel, Autograph Collection

We had an exceptional dining experience from start to finish. Ionut looked after us throughout and was knowledgeable, professional and genuinely welcoming. His service was attentive without ever being intrusive. The food was excellent and beautifully presented, and the whole evening felt effortless. We'd happily recommend a trip.

Beautiful hotel. Spotlessly clean. Staff incredibly friendly. Husband loved the gym felt it was very well equipped and clean. I asked for a coconut hot chocolate this was no issue and was absolutely beautiful. Breakfast was well ran and everyone helpful. Husband can only eat gluten free and they had a separate area with a wide range of options for him. Probably one of the best hotels for catering to dietary needs. Check out easy and everyone we met super friendly. Gardens and grounds stunning. Will be back again as this hotel just ticks all our boxes. If you’re looking to book the spa book it asap as it can be booked out. We will do that next time as it all looked beautiful but we ran out of time.

This is a super hotel which certainly lived up to expectations. Great attention to detail in the bedroom, lots of plug sockets and storage space. Both restaurants were excellent, I wouldn’t be surprised if Sika gets into the Michelin guide soon. The grounds are stunning and beautifully maintained, enhanced of course by being right beside Powerscourt House and gardens. Most of all the staff were lovely, friendly and helpful. Despite being a top class hotel there is nothing pretentious about the Powerscourt. We felt relaxed and welcomed during our stay.

Lovely hotel and lovely staff. The Sika restaurant was special - the food was superb and Daniel, Frazer and the rest of team looked after us so well with a blend of professionalism and easy manner. They understood how to have the craic with the guests!

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.
