First time visiting Ireland and wanted to stay in a castle for at least one night. This castle was built in the 16th century and it still exists and we could stay there and enjoy it. The grounds were amazing. The staff was very accommodating. Definitely go to the bar and meet Paul and Tim. Great bartenders. The locals that come to visit the bar and bartenders were the entertainment for the night. We had a blast. We were at the bar the whole time.
United States of AmericaEverything. Arrived @ 6 pm and still could order Afternoon Tea but chose dinner in the bar instead. Next night we ate at bar again but chose to sit in tea room. Quieter but still with wait service. Tea always available in Tea Room. Always able to order scones! Breakfast offers cold buffet with delicious hot selections to order. Loved the scones. Tea and/or coffee. Photos submitted are of Castle: Breakfast room; main entrance foyer; ladies room; and exterior view as we walked over each morning.
United States of AmericaEverything you would expect from a Castle stay. We were there for our 35th Anniversary and it felt so special from the moment that we walked through the door - Meals were amazing and had an extremely wonderful time in the Pub with Ned and a few locals. Very Luxurious and proper, beautiful gardens and gazebo. Staff was amazing and quick to respond to our requests.
United States of AmericaThe old castle is authentic and well maintained. Our room was in the new wing attached to the old castle and it was fit for royalty!
United States of AmericaI loved the grounds and the hiking path. The rooms were spacious and clean. The dinner and breakfast were amazing too!
United States of AmericaBeautiful grounds, beautiful castle, great room and wonderful service and food. The bar was great and Tim was wonderful as our bartender. The stories about the history of the Castle were so interesting.
United States of AmericaClose to numerous cities if your traveling in western Ireland. The grounds were immaculate and the interior was well preserved. Seeing the dogs there made it a special place
United States of AmericaOf all the breakfasts that we had on our 9 day trip to Ireland , this castle hotel had the best. The basic "Irish breakfast", components were served, in addition, we had a choice of an omelet and wonderful smoked salmon and a salami were offered at the continental breakfast table. The staff was very accommodating and "on top" of our needs. The castle interior and the bedroom was like a dream...........splendid, perfect.......!!!!!
United States of AmericaOur suite was amazing and romantic,the grounds were beautiful even in the rain. Even the resident animals were adorable.
United States of AmericaOur stay at Ballyseede castle exceed our expectations. Everything from our comfortable room, the meals,the beautiful grounds to the castle decor was fabulous. We loved the paintings of Mozart and Napoleon, the meticulous grounds complete with donkeys and sheep, the full knight coat of arms in the hall, and the resident dogs (such sweeties!) Dinner was such a treat in the gorgeous dining room and the service all around terrific.
