Top Birr Hotel Reviews

Abbey Court

Abbey Court

10/10 Excellent
"Abbey Court is a lovely, quaint hotel with comfortable, spacious rooms and unique toiletries. The quiet sleeping floors were a nice contrast to the lobby with wonderful coffee bar and ample seating. The coffee bar may have been my favorite aspect of Abbey Court. The entire grounds had a relaxing, positive vibe. I would gladly have stayed longer and highly recommend."

8/10 Good
"Very nice rooms but quite a bit away from reception. The design of the reception is a bit odd also - it's immediately obvious where to find the bar/restaurant. It could do with some more prominent signage. But a very nice, clean hotel."

Kinnitty Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Simply fantastic. The staff and accomodations were excellent, and we so appreciated receiving a very kind complimentary room upgrade to celebrate our anniversary. The history of the castle and surrounding land is fascinating and steeped in lore, and we enjoyed learning more about this this very special part of the heart of Ireland."

10/10 Excellent
"Rooms were clean, beds comfortable and cleaned each day. Staff were friendly, polite and helpful. The bar was modern and staff were pleasant, the food was excellent. We stayed in August and thought as the hotel was busy there would be some nightly entertainment but there wasn't. The pool and it's facilities I couldn't fault. We will definitely return."
