Lock in a great price for Ballyseede Castle – rated 9.3 by recent guests!

to get started.

Wonderful stay! The castle grounds and our room were beautiful, the meals were excellent and staff friendly and helpful. Loved getting to explore the area around the castle and meet the resident Irish Wolfhounds, Molly and Higgins.

Tayler, United States of America

What a beautiful hotel! The entire Castle is filled with amazing art and furniture. We spent over an hour just walking about admiring the splendor. The staff was absolutely fantastic, and very accommodating. The food? Wonderful! For dinner we had the lamb shank, fell off the bone and melted in my mouth. This will be a favorite every time I come to Ireland!

Gerri, United States of America

My fiancé and I stayed here the night that we got engaged and I couldn’t have been more pleased. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful. Everyone that we encountered took the time congratulate us even though we only mentioned it to the check in person. The sent us up a bottle of wine for our engagement. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!!

James, Canada

Beautiful property...even on a dreary winter day. Evening meal in the Restaurant was very good as was the breakfast. Felt like royalty for a day, would definitely return.

Tracy, United States of America

The castle is magical and the staff was lovely. We had drinks at the bar with Tim who was incredibly accommodating and gave us recommendations for our drive to Dingle. Dinner service was also lovely and we left stuffed (we especially loved the Dingle Bay crab cocktail and panna cotta) but the super comfy beds put us right to sleep. Breakfast was awesome, full Irish, Benedict with lemony hollandaise and perfectly scrambled eggs with chives and salmon—yum! The manager Brendan made sure we had a table quickly and got us set up with everything we needed. The atmosphere was exactly what we needed to make our vacation extra special. And the Irish wolf hounds are adorable!

Adam, United States of America

This location was perfect! Staff was amazing. Our kids were so excited to stay at castle. We had 2 families. One in the lodge and one in the castle. This was the best place according to our kids!

Carrie, United States of America

It is clear the owners care a lot about this property. The staff were super friendly and service was impeccable. The food served in the restaurant was terrific. We loved the design of each room, true to the period and very classy. We definitely wanted to stay longer and continue hanging out with Mr. Higgins and Miss Molly!

Jessica, United States of America

Ballyseede castle is an amazing place to stay. The dogs were a major highlight for my boys and very much a part of the whole experience. A special thanks to Tim who gave us some great advice on a few places to visit before we headed back.

One of our best sellers in Tralee! Take a step back in time with a hotel steeped in history that offers luxurious surroundings within 30 acres of private gardens and woodland.

The Doric columns that lead to an elegant oak staircase in the lobby are indicative of the grand decoration throughout the hotel. Impressive parlors with ornate cornices, adorned with marble fireplaces provide an ideal setting for afternoon tea or morning coffee.

Elegant accommodation, fine dining with traditional Irish cuisine, rooms that tell a story and the picturesque natural setting, will all comprise make your stay at Ballyseede Castle an unforgettable one.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.3 for a two-person trip.
