The castle is beautiful with incredible views everywhere you look. The rack of lamb at dinner was exceptional. The beds in my room could have definitely used some new mattresses and it would have been nice if the staff had waived the cost of breakfast after a short in the fire alarm woke us up--and kept us up--in the middle...

We arrived by boat and on the shore was a bagpiper playing and once we were off the boat, he led us into the hotel. Pure luxury with customer service at its best. The rooms are very comfortable and we had a beautiful view of the fountain and the grounds. The hotel itself and the grounds are awe-inspiring. It is... More

Stayed for 4 nights. The setting is everything you would expect from the pictures. Beautiful looking castle surrounded by lakes and rivers and greenery. The staff are nice and helpful and charming. The room smelt strongly of damp and persisted despite a "deep clean" following our complaint. The hot water takes a good 5 minutes to run brought in to... More

The hotel is awaking. We only stayed one night, Jr. Suite. The views are amazing, the place is a wonder to explore. Horse riding and Falconry were great, enjoyable and doing it in beautiful location only makes is so much better. I would advise the Falconry School, the price is worth being close to these wonderful raptors. The breakfast buffet... More

If you've been on the website you can see the jaw-dropping castle and scenery. The interior is just as spectacular and I do believe they have anointed saints working in the kitchen. Be sure you spend the little extra to get a room with a lake view and the breakfast buffet. If you see the breakfast spread in the morning... More

You are met by the doorman, John who greets you by name and accompanies you to reception where you are introduced to a receptionist who sits down with you and welcomes you to the hotel.... More

It's expensive, but it is luxury personified. All of the staff are very cordial and professional and treat you like royalty. They just can't do enough. Recommend a room with a lake view in the old section. Rooms are spacious, and a walk of the grounds is very romantic.

We stayed at the Ashford Castle on the last night of our tour. I only wish we stayed there on every night of the tour. We arrived by boat on the lake and from the very first sight of the castle we knew we were in for a treat. If you ever get to stay here, please take advantage of... More

Stayed here for two nights recently in a lovely corrib lake view room. The room was not the biggest but it was more than adequate with gorgeous views and a fabulous big luxurious bathroom. The bed was so comfortable. Nice turndown service with chocolates and in fact the staff tidied and cleaned when they did the turndown service too. All... More
