Some areas of this property need to be updated. The carpets look dirty in the hallways and in our room. They need a good steam clean or to be replaced. Overall, the hotel was good for our two nights. The breakfast was nice. The hotel was next to the Dromoland Castle and golf course. It is a beautiful area to walk around! The walled garden is incredible! The in house bar and restaurant seemed lively and had local, live music several days a week. The property’s amenities were nice, but again they seem to be a bit in need of some updating and repair. The Expedia property details should include the fact that swim caps are required for the pool, which they charge you three euros each for unless you bring your own.The design of the shower stall in the rooms was terrible and we could not figure out how to keep water from getting all over the floor, which made it very slippery. Beds were quite hard, which some may like. Parking was awesome! Nice place for people with young children to stay since they have family rooms and outside games in addition to indoor pool.

Don't eat in their pub. Expensive and poor service

We had an amazing time at the hotel but the service we got at there first class pub was horrible. No attention from our waiter. The food was subpar and when we complained we got offered more to drink then a discount.

Unfortunately the hotel needs updating and everything felt dirty except the updated and clean bathrooms. The carpet was dirty, the walls were in need of a good painting or at least a wipe down. The upside to it was we were able to walk the property at The Dromoland Castle which was gorgeous!

Average at best

The property needs some updating and renovation for sure. I had read this in a number of other reviews so I wasn’t surprised. We went to Shannigan’s twice for dinner my Chicken Caesar Salad was lacking one key element “chicken” it was more like a few crumbs and a complete waste of time. This is also mentioned in other reviews. There were a lot of staff but no one seemed to be actually interested in serving us. I lost track of how long it took to get and pay the bill.

I still think about the Irish beef and red wine stew from their onsite restaurant at least once a day. Definitely worth the 11 hour flight and additional drive. Room was clean and staff friendly. Appreciated the in room oscillating fan that helped dry my toddler’s shoes after he jumped in the river in Gort.

High quality for reasonable price

The staff was extremely friendly and hospitable. I felt breakfast was overpriced, but honestly a full Irish breakfast at a restaurant would probably cost about the same. Everything was delicious (some of the best scrambled eggs, sausage, and baked beans I've ever tasted!) and the seating process was fast and organized. My room was a little warm but there was a fan available to help cool it down a little. The view from my room was someone's backyard, which felt a little awkward, but I could always just close the curtains. Speaking of the curtains, they completely blocked out all light, which was extremely helpful when I was trying to sleep off my jetlag! Overall a great start for my first visit to Ireland!

The Staff were brilliant I feel the hotel needs updating the rooms were a good size the cleaning could be better it’s such a lovely location just a few changes could make it a more warmer and inviting place to stay. I may return but mainly due to the wonderful staff especially the reception staff. I don’t like to criticise but I truly believe you could have an amazing hotel if certain problems were addressed, Kind regards Pauline 🙏
