Great Hotel. Excellent Service. Tremendous Value.

The Clontarf was delightful from entry to exit. The overall hotel exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed the castle and dinner at the Knights Bar. Service and menu were excellent. Our room was comfortable and very well appointed. The grounds were lovely and expertly maintained. Given the price for our room and the quality of the space, dining and property, we felt it was a great value.
