If you enjoy a rare opportunity to experience a hotel with ambience, don't miss Hunter's. This hotel, or coaching inn (probably the correct label) belongs to a breed that is becoming increasingly rare. Old woodwork and polished brass. In the same family for generations and maintained and run with precious, loving affection, both building and gardens, this is a place... More

Lovely old hotel that has changed in decades. The food is simple and excellent, grown locally or in the hotels large gardens. Beautiful gardens with tea or lunch served on the lawns. Wonderful calm bedrooms. The place to spend a week with some good books and daily visits to the gardens and stately homes in the area. Very kind and... More

The Hunter's hotel is certainly in a nice location and does haves a charming ambience. We did not stay here but ate in the restaurant. The food was OK rather than great and certainly nothing out of the ordinary. Given that the Hunter's is expensive, one would expect better for the money. One of us is vegetarian, and there was...

We had the most beautiful lunch in Hunters - from beginning to end we were so well looked after and accommodated. We had a toddler with us and every effort was made to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was amazing and excellent value and the service was prompt and friendly. I would highly recommend this wonderful... More

The moment you walk into Hunter's you realise that you are somewhere unique and very special. The crisp white linen in the Dining Room, the bar with the photo of the first car in Ireland, the wonderful garden with the famous sign, the vegetable garden with it's scarecrow staright out of Beatrix Potter, and the peaceful setting. This historic inn,... More

I have just returned to the "North," and thought I should share my experience of this former coaching inn/hotel. The whole place exudes warmth from the staff to the cosy fires in the atmospheric lounge bar area. I enjoyed two meals which were excellent in quality, served efficiently by friendly staff, and, in my opinion, good VFM. Bedroom and en-suite... More

Just back home and I am compelled to tell the world about a little gem called Hunter's Hotel, Newrath Bridge. We were enthralled by the warmth of heart and generosity of spirit in a world where love is at a premium. Fresh orange (real), poached egg (real) and brown bread (real). Staff (real). And a comfy bed (real). An hotel... More

We had Sunday Lunch there. The first thing that annoyed me was the concept of fixed "sitting" times. I prefer to sit and rise at times of my chosing, not the establishments'. I'll leave when I'm good and ready thank you. Service was quite slow but the dining room was packed. Some of us ordered Salmon on Brown Bread. The... More

I didn't stay here but visited for afternoon tea. First impressions were that the outside of the hotel could do with a lick of paint but after parking and entering the hotel, the charm of it's genuine interiors made the outside rather endearing. The place has the feel of an old convent, lots of Laura Ashley style armchairs, tiled floor,... More

I have known Hunter's Hotel for many years. It is a rare and genuine old world hotel. The high quality food is all fresh and locally sourced, including the hotel grounds. Prices for this rare establishment are very reasonable compared to other hotels on Ireland. The gardens are quite famous and enhance a very peaceful old world ambience. The hotel... More
