Rathdrum Hotel Guide - Historic Hotels in Rathdrum, County Wicklow

"It was lovely few days with friends food was lovely the pool and sauna sream room were lovely and relaxing the spa was beautiful so relaxing really enjoyed our stay "

"Basic room is enormous at over 45m sq and has huge comfortable bed, large bedroom, separate hallway with large spacious dressing room and large spacious bathroom with shower and bath separate. My only slight criticism would be the pillows on the bed. Not your typical 5 star down and feather combo but a hollow fibre style that wasn’t as comfortable or luxurious. Still pretty good."

"Excellent breakfast with a nice variety. Very nice bar abd restaurant."

"Extremely good ."

"It was a wonderful hotel, with a pub/restaurant, and a beautiful yard. Lots of history, built in 1086....."

"The parking was free and located right by the resort and spa areas. The room was clean, cozy, and nicely decorated, the pillows were rather hard, though. There was no fridge or microwave in the room, as American guests might desire. There was a hot water boiler, two cups and one spoon, 2 bottles of still water, tea bags and instant coffee singles, and milk singles (during our visit to the area we could not find any coffee creamer in liquid or powdered form anywhere). The area around the resort was pretty, rural with green hills and trees. You could hear the highway noise from the parking lot of the hotel, though. Access to the resort grounds from the highway was fast and easy. To eat at the restaurant you had to make reservations, so we did not go. We did not use the spa, although it was included with our stay. We ate at the bar a few times, sitting in the winter garden looking out, and the food there was delicious! We only had breakfast in the designated breakfast room once and thought it was expensive for what was offered. But the view from the window was lovely. The hotel staff was very nice and friendly :) In summary, I would recommend the resort and spa for it's friendly staff, nice scenery, clean and cozy rooms, convenient access, and proximity to other interesting places to visit. "

"All staff were excellent and very attentive. Strawberry Restaurant very good"

"Food was the highlight. Compliments to the chef….very tasty, creative menus Loads of choice in bar menu and fair prices. Wonderful array of options for breakfast. Room with a view and bath. Plenty towels. Chocolates, welcome card and free drink were super bonus…WELL DONE!….means a lot! Comfy bed, lovely linen. Only negative was the television….is a bit small and there was very intermittent connection, but I only wanted the `News headlines, so it didn’t matter to me. Lovely, friendly and helpful staff."

"Beautiful hotel and the most amazing breakfast loved it!"
