Stayed at Ashford Castle this past week during a tour of Ireland. Worth noting is the fact that the staff is exceptional. We were greeted upon arrival and taken straight to our rooms after a brief tour. Rooms are a 4 out of 5, location is great. Golf course was very scenic and playable to for all handicaps. Read the...

The food, decor, and scenery are all wonderful. Most staff were excellent, the valet was most helpful and friendly, as were the room stewards.But some stretched the truth and let us down on the spa. The concierge gave the checkin speech and said about all the complimentary spa items, but when we tried to use them, we found it to... More

My husband and I stayed in a rather small upstairs room overlooking the lake for the last 3 nights in April. It was a special rate, 2 nights with the 3rd night free which may be the reason we were given a small room. The view was fabulous and the grounds magnificent...great for walking. The charming village of Cong is... More

We stayed at Ashford for one night in mid-April. It was spectacular! We booked the deluxe room (2 adults and 1 child-3yrs old). When we arrived, we were led to the sitting room and enjoyed a very relaxing afternoon tea. The room was beautiful, but the best part of the hotel was by far the quality of the staff. Everyone...

This was our first trip to Ireland and our stay at Ashford Castle was perfect. We took advantage of the spring special which included one dinner in the George V. Reluctantly my husband put on a tie (the literature says jacket and tie are required to dine there) only to find that most of the men had left their ties... More

This was the first castle we stayed at Ireland and the drive in is breathtaking. It is absolutely beautiful. The food is pricey but so worth it. Our group of 6 had lunch in the lobby area and everyone was happy with the service and their meals. The service and the staff were excellent. We had a wonderful dinner in... More

The view of the castle, as you enter is breathtaking, it is set on hundreds of acres, on the edge of a beautiful lake. I was lucky enough to stay in Room 500, the highest room in the castle on top of a turret, and also the room that Maureen O'Hara stayed in during the filming of "The Quiet Man"... More

We wanted to do something special for our anniversary and could not have made a better choice. Although it is very expensive you are treated like royalty from the moment you arrive and the doorman (David) greets you at the front door. The scenery is breat taking, the food is fabulous and the staff wonderful. Everyone should visit once.
