Coping well with Covid-19 restrictions

The bedrooms and ensuites are spacious and clean and the beds very comfortable. I advise that you ask for a room with a view - my view of the back of a building was somewhat off-putting! As this is an old building, it has old-world grandeur. Its grounds are very large and pleasant with a golf course as well as fishing (at a cost). As I stayed during the Covid-19 restrictions,the bar was closed and the restaurant housed in a large bamboo tent with a reduced BBQ-themed menu (varied on certain days). I understand that live music is provided for diners on certain nights. Having stayed in this hotel before, the non-availability of its fully functioning restaurant was unfortunate. However, the hotel is to be commended for how it is coping with the restrictions of the pandemic, and the staff are nice and respectful. Breakfast is served in the hotel's function room at present and is of a very good quality.

The Hotel itself is charming, stunning grounds, great food and beautiful rooms. It really met with our expectations and we would definitely return. he only issue we all experienced was poor communication with the front reception staff. We had booked a falconry appointment on our last day there and they completely screwed it up and we ended up not going which was really disappointing . Also we found the majority of the staff on the front desk to be

birthday celebration

Enjoyed our stay. Rooms are expensive and are not as luxurious as one would expect for the price. Bathrooms are big but not cosy. Room lacking any individuality.Rooms over looking car park not offering nice views. Food excellent. Chrildren running up and down corridors not very inviting, although that was early in evening. People using lodges were also having breakfast, we were staying in the hotel and had to wait a while for a table. Guests off the hotel should be giving priority and reservstions should know what quests are having breakfast due to teir bookings. Best if that issue is sorted.

Beautiful estate

We only stayed one night - I wish we could have spent longer here. We had a drink in the Boathole a fabulous relaxing dinner at The Kitchen, walked the walking path one the grounds and visited an old cemetery and megalithic stone site. You can fly fish, shoot clay pigeons, do archery or falconry. Very classy and beautiful place. Definitely worth the money to stay here you won't be disappointed. The staff and very kind and classy.

Beautiful hotel

This is a gorgeous hotel and a treat to stay in. The only negative comment we could make was in regard to our meal in the boathole bar. We let the wait staff know that my boyfriend was a coeliac and they were more than accommodating and very knowledgeable.
They passed the request onto the kitchen but unfortunately he was served chips from a shared fryer (with gluten food) with his meal. This was rectified quickly by waiting staff when we queried it.
He was then served ice cream, which he was told was coeliac friendly however, the wait staff came to us as he was eating it to state the gingerbread ice cream within the bowl may not be safe to eat.
Luckily, my boyfriend was not sick following this, however, another coeliac guest could may have had their break ruined by this.
Putting the above aside, we would gladly stay here again however and I only bring this up so the kitchen can be aware of this.
I would definitely recommend we really enjoyed our stay!

fabulous food.
Could not get a suite for the dates that I was looking for, the superior rooms were somewhat noisy from adjacent rooms, which annoys me.
Anyway, this is our second stay and will not be our last.
Next time I will book well in advance for one of the two deluxe suites.

Super Chillaxing Break Location

Weekend away - great food, great location for a chill weekend. Deducting a few points for poor wireless broadband. It was patchy in places and you had to move around the room to get the best reception. Of course the purpose of our visit was to get away from all that so it wasn't that upsetting really :)

We arrived later than planned but were warmly welcomed and enjoyed dinner without fuss. Somehow, the address of Foxford Road left us confused, driving from Knock, as to whether it was to or from Ballina (from, on the right), but once found we loved our stay. Certainly one to repeat, with more time in future to enjoy the hotel with its wonderful, varied and extensive facilities.

Relaxing Break

Mount Falcon was extremely welcoming as they arranged for our room to be ready before the 3 pm check in time. We enjoyed the Spa facilities. The restaurant was fully booked for early eating so as we don't like to eat too late we used the bar to eat. The food was good although my husband was not happy with his steak and they gave him another one without any fuss.

weekend in mount falcon

What a fabulous hotel.. both the location and the staff were wonderful. The only slightly negative we would have was that the heat in the bedroom was so so warm, even with the window open. The food was delicious, I'm a vegetarian and totally enjoyed the veg lasagne which was the best I've ever eaten. The staff were very professional and friendly and made our stay such a relaxed and fabulous weekend. Hope to visit again sometime!

Elegant old world hotel, wonderful for a romantic weekend break. Mount Falcon has fabulous grounds for walking, plenty of lounge areas to relax in and spacious bedrooms. I really enjoyed the hotel pool,it was wonderful to swim lengths without bumping into other swimmers. Staff were friendly and helpful, especially on reception desk. However I was a little disappointed with the food in the restaurant. While the food was presented beautifully I can't say that the starters or pudding bowled me over. However I did enjoy the steak for my main course and breakfasts were also of a good standard.

Amazing

We had such a wonderful time at Mount Falcon during our 4 days. It is by far the most welcoming and comfortable places we've visited on our journey throughout western Ireland. From the Giants Causeway to the ring of Kelly we've stayed in a few places along the way and Mount Falcon has been our favorite. Their service and hospitality is second to no one and we will be returning on our next adventure through Ireland!

Beautiful setting let down by inconsistency in quality of food even when on the same plate, deluxe rooms which are noisy and smell of the smoke from the fire in reception, while the hotel itself is too hot with heating that cannot be adjusted.

A Very nice hotel stay

A country style hotel with lots of things to do. The welcome was friendly and the big log fire a welcome sight from the rain. The room was a reasonable size with a comfy bed, chairs and table. TV channels were both Irish and English to suit all tastes. The leisure centre had a good sized swimming pool with bubble relaxation section, Jacuzzi, Steam and Sauna. My wife had a massage which she really enjoyed. Breakfast offered a wide choice. A really nice hotel stay

Our goal was to see the surrounding countryside. We couldn't have picked a more beautiful locale. The staff was more than accommodating and the layout of the hotel and its atmosphere created a lovely setting where you could interact with the other guests. The only downside is that the food was not great, but I would return there in a heartbeat.
