Was a very unique and beautiful hotel blending old and new seamlessly. The staff was welcoming and kind and the The Knights Bar food was delicious! We really enjoyed our stay!
We loved our final stay in Ireland. The staff were so very helpful and staying in a castle complete with history was a plus. We recommend that everyone make this a destination on their Ireland trip!
The hotel is beautiful. The rooms were clean and huge. The bed was super comfortable and the bathroom was a full size shower and counter, which is not common in Europe. Breakfast was good and so was lunch using room service. We would definitely want to stay here again.
a beautiful castle just outside of downtown Dublin City. wonderful very attentive staff, gorgeous surroundings. Clontarf is a great suburb of Dublin with beautiful views of the bay and the city. a great place to unwind while still being close enough to the city to do what you want.
Very nice facility and wonderful breakfast. Staff is very friendly. Our room was smaller than I thought it would be based on the pictures and the price we paid.
We stayed here for our honeymoon. The staff was incredible! Everyone was so kind and helpful. Our room was cleaned every day of our stay, breakfast, and all other dining options were extraordinary
My daughter wanted to stay in a castle but the prices didn't match our budget. I found this hotel and it was the best for both of us. The hotel is beautiful and the beds are soft and comfortable.
Only downside, which would have made me reconsider staying there, is that it is a 20 minute taxi ride from city center. As much as I enjoyed the hotel, for the quick time I had in Dublin, I would have preferred to be closer.
Delightful place in a quiet suburb, not too far from Dublin city center, and close to the water. Excellent accomodations and service. For a solo traveler, it was comftorbale, safe, and secure. On site restaurants were great. Free wifi and parking were a bonus. Definitely would stay again.
Great staff, easy check in, breakfast is daily from 7:30 to 10:30. Highey recommend. Bus stops very close by for those who don't have a rental car. Bus 130 takes you straight into central Dublin! Perfect experience all around for Clontarf Castle and the staff
