This was the last stop on our trip to Ireland, and it left a bad feeling about the whole trip. We had looked forward to the "Castle" hotel, because we had had a marvelous stay at another castle hotel on a previous trip. This is NOT a castle hotel. It is falsely advertised as a castle hotel. It is a... More

Dear C F Thank you for your detailed review of your recent stay with us. Firstly, regarding your comments on there being no castle present, there was indeed a castle here on the grounds, however this was destroyed by Cromwell and the first part of the present day building was built at the start of the 1700’s, in a mansion...

We stayed here recently on our first night in Ireland. This was one of four hotels we stayed at during our time in Ireland. I was very excited prior to our trip about this hotel, but was disappointed on arrival. The staff members were bordering on rude. At first I thought this may be because we were obviously tourists -... More

Dunboyne was the last stop at the tail-end of our Ireland trip. We were checked in promptly and given a very clean and comfortable room. There was WiFi right in the room, which is a big deal to me. The bed was comfortable, the room was very clean and the bathroom was large. The lobby was very modern and pretty.... More

I recently attended a wedding at Dunboyne Castle. The venue, staff and food were all excellent. I would recommend it as a venue for a wedding.
