Pre Christmas group shopping trip to Kildare Village basing ourselves at the nearby Clanard Court Hotel. Beautiful grounds and a lovely reception area. All the staff were amazing. Do pleasant and helpful. Nothing was too much. The well sized rooms were spotlessly clean with necessities. We enjoyed a tasty well priced dinner at the hotel restaurant and our price included breakfast menu and we had plenty to choose from. There are spa facilities but time wasn’t on our side to relax!! Highly recommend this lovely hotel.

My first impression when I walked in the front door was that this place is so lovely. Helpful and welcoming reception staff and very pleasant restaurant and bar staff. The hotel is warm and comfortable, the bedrooms spotless bright and very comfortable with all the trimmings, best hotel hairdryer I’ve ever used is here! Dinner and breakfast delicious, the early morning staff nice and cheery. Next time I’m in the area I’ll be staying here. Maybe I’ll make time to use the spa then.

Everyone had a great time. The dinner show was amazing, kids said it was the best 'party' they have ever been to. Only one minor quibble was that the food could have been better, however I could not give the experience any less than 5 stars as the service was tremendous. We have been to almost all of the Santa experiences around the country and by far enjoyed this one the most. Will definitely be back!

Fantastic service and wonderful friendly staff, made you feel so comfortable and relaxed. From check in, to the children's goodie bags in the room, to the magical Santa trail and experience. The elves were great right up to Santa. The food was great and entertainment along with it, singing chef excellent. Rooms so warm and cozy, breakfast buffet with pancakes my children loved it start to finish.

Myself and my friend stayed thia weekend for the girly pamper day and we had an amazing time. Nothing was too much trouble and literally every single staff member we spoke to went above and beyond to make our nights stay the best it could have been. I have honestly never had better service.

It was even better than last year's visit due to no covid restrictions. So much fun and the staff are just amazing. Such great value for money when you compare other Santa visits. Roll on December 2023.

We travelled with a 9 5 and 1 year old for our Santa trip. The staff were AMAZING and did everything they could to create a magical experience for all. The food was excellent. The rooms were warm clean and the beds were comfy. Where we stayed was very quiet which made it easy for everyone to sleep well. The staff and management have thought of everything their breakfast buffet was the best I’ve seen since covid. The magic trail itself was lovely and the characters along the way were fun our favourite was the snowball fight. The Santa was kind and engaging. The only thing I’d add would be usb points in the room for forgetful travellers like myself who forget her plug. The arts and craft section was a little bit long for us but that is only because of the 1 year old who…
