A gem of a find.

Wonderful experience. The Lodge at Ashford Castle is everything that it advertises itself to be. The grounds are beautiful, the rooms amazing and all the staff were attentive and polite.
Kay, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The place is fantastic, the decor is very cool, rooms fresh and spacious, situation idyllic. Loved my smoked haddock for breakfast. Evening meal was was the only slight disappointment, not quite on par with everything else- uninspired and overpriced. I loved using the free bicycles to tour round the castle gardens and down to Cohan’s bar for a pint of Guinness and some delicious scallops.

Although we weren’t able to book a meal at the castle, so that we could go inside & tour it, we still loved staying at The Lodge. The room, service & meals were delightful. And, we truly enjoyed the 2 hour afternoon boat ride that included a walk to see church ruins on an island. We also really enjoyed walking around all the castle grounds. We sure hope to come back & bring our family with us!

We recently stayed at the Lodge at Ashford Castle, then a night at the castle itself. I have never experienced such a level of service. Everything was amazing and the staff went above and beyond to exceed our expectations. They have raised the bar.
Kelly, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Lodge is on the grounds of Ashford Castle - majestic, calming, gorgeous - all we wanted to do was walk around all day! Several amenities at the castle are afforded to the Lodge, but not all - confirm and book beforehand if you're interested in falconry, horseback riding, etc. The boat across the lake is a lovely outing!

What can I say about this hotel that hasn’t already been said? It was simply amazing. We took a break from our family heritage tour and headed north of Galway to stay at The Lodge at Ashford Castle—and I’m so glad we did. One of the highlights was the Hawk Walk, offered by Ireland’s School of Falconry right on the property. My husband loved it. The hotel offers other experiences as well, and there are 350 acres of trails to explore. They even provide a trail map so you can plan your route. The estate includes lakes and streams for fishing and boating, and the views from the Lodge are breathtaking. Although we stayed at the Lodge, which is a fraction of the cost of Ashford Castle, we were treated as full guests of the entire estate. We had access to everything the castle offers. The service was excellent—professional and warm. Paul at the Lodge handled everything from luggage to transportation around the estate, always with a smile. Clarissa at the front desk and Vorchek at breakfast were also wonderful. Our room was spacious, the bed was comfortable, and the pillows were amazing. My only suggestion: consider adding a door between the kitchen and dining room to reduce noise. It was loud and we asked to be moved and we were accommodated. I'm so glad we were because the meal was a solid 10. Thank you to the chef and kitchen team. This hotel was a highlight of our trip. Visit the website, book a stay, and give yourself time to enjoy it all.
