The area and the grounds are spectacular. It's a wonderful place to walk around the gardens and woods and to see the lovely Corrib. The staff are very welcoming, attentive and professional. The accommodation is really nice with full living room downstairs and bedroom and bathroom upstairs.
IrelandEnjoyed a recent overnight stay in a ground floor deluxe double room which looked out on to the courtyard. Room was compact in size but bed comfortable and appreciated the beside sockets, lights and mineral water in glass bottles. Lovely shower and great lighting in bathroom. Had lunch in The Quay Brasserie which was quite busy at the time. Food was great and staff friendly and helpful. Took the opportunity to cycle around the beautiful grounds and into Cong village which we greatly enjoyed. Also really enjoyed the singer and musician who entertained us that night while enjoying a drink in the bar area. Very pleased with breakfast choice and service which we ate at a table by the window allowing wonderful views of the well maintained grounds down to the quay. Felt quite safe from a Covid compliance point of view. Fancy bag given out on check in containing disposable surgical masks and hand sanitiser. Overall a great treat.
IrelandWe loved the spacious duplex with outdoor access for our dogs! They were so well catered for in all areas of the lodge! We enjoyed walking around the grounds of the castle.
IrelandFantastic setting, very friendly and helpful staff, excellent food, will visit again in future. Would also highly recommend the lake cruise if time allows, very enjoyable and reasonable rates.
IrelandAlthough the lodge was not really old like the castle, but more of a modern Hotel, we were very comfortable there and enjoyed our stay. The staff were very friendly. The breakfast and especially the dinner were excellent. The bar was cozy. We can recommend this Hotel.
SwitzerlandJust about everything. The staff were brilliant, very pleasant and really helpful as well as being attentive without overdoing it. The setting was really lovely and brilliant for both us and our dog who was in seventh heaven. We couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
United KingdomI loved everything about this property! The rooms are luxurious and all the comforts of home have been thought of. Tea and coffee service in the rooms, amazing beds and lovely decor. Breakfast was delicious.
United States of AmericaBreakfast was gorgeous and elegant, rooms amazing and I wish we would have stayed an extra night. Nigel the bellman took complete care of us and I highly recommend you book.
United States of AmericaThe setting, the decor, the awesome staff! My daughter was sick when we arrived and the staff could not have been more helpful or accommodating. Kevin, my breakfast server was one of the kindest and loveliest people I have ever met. He literally could not do enough for us. The walk to the castle from the lodge was gorgeous. The views from the castle and I think, especially the lodge were so glorious.
United States of AmericaThe breakfast was amazing to be honest. The restaurant were very, very nice. Beautiful location with tons of places to walk and sight see. Looking forward to returning with our dog. They love dogs there.
