We stayed here as this seemed to be the best option in the area. Is has many plus points such as a 15 minute walk into Dalkey, and the hills behind. However, in many ways it was like going back in time to the days of how hotels used to be. An interesting experience, but a refreshing change from the... More

Yes they call this a castle...not exactly what you expect, but wonderful time exploring this huge property. If you are able ask for room with balcony, if you only have 2 people! If you have a family, go for room 425 as it has a great view with two beds that are large. Make a note that beds are very... More

Stayed here last weekend with a group of friends. 5 of us checked in together, 1 double room, 1 twin room and a single. What a difference in the rooms. The single room on the 1st floor looked like a little girls room, small and flowery but 'cute' if you like that kind of thing. The double room on the... More

Stayed for two night in late April 2013. We were very disappointed with this Hotel. The rooms were old and worn and so were the bathrooms. Breakfast was very average and so was the dinner.

Carpet was pretty threadbare and walls were cracked. Bed was big and comfortable but after the plane flight I think I could have slept anywhere. Very close to big park with obelisk that had amazing views. Food at hotel was very good and service from staff was excellent. Hotel could just stand some updates.

While the accommodations were not bad, this is not a "real" castle, but appears to be a manor house with several additions and a watch that appears to be a castle wall. We were disappointed that after paying more than $100 euros (not exactly outrageously expensive, but more so than a good B&B) that we were simply in a hotel.... More

This hotel was our last stop in a week long tour of Ireland. We enjoyed our time here though this hotel had a much different feel from any other we stayed in.
