This hotel has always been spectacular and continues to be one of my favorite places to stay Wen in Ireland
Megan
Visited on our honeymoon, there are no words for how magical Ashford Castle is.
Travis
👍
Stephen
What an experience! If you have never stayed in a castle before, then this is the one to do. It sets a very high bar for service, quality and experience. One of the best stays in Ireland!
Dorothy
Ashford Castle is far more than a nice hotel. It’s an experience. Every detail and every interaction with the staff made us feel like royalty. Utterly amazing experience.
Karen
We loved Ashford Castle. It was also the only hotel across Ireland that we had excellent internet access. Our request for improvement would be the Cullens Cottage restaurant. The food was average. My strip steak and husband's lamb were both tough. The desserts were also fair at best. Not everyone wants to dress formally to go to dinner. That should not preclude a decent meal. Breakfast was excellent.
John
Highly recommend falconry school.
michael
Superb unique castle hotel in Cong which is a short walk. Highlight was without question the boat trip on Cong lake which is truly magical.
Eliza
Stunning grounds. Ideal Activities. Excellent linens.
kathleen
We had a beautiful waterview room. The room was beautiful. I only wish we had more time! The falcon walk with Collin and Mary was more than we hoped for. It is as the book says \"one of the thousand things to do before you die\". The afternoon tea was delightful. We also had dinner in the Dungeon Room. The front desk did all our reservations before we arrived. We are looking forward to a return trip!
Jon
Unique experience, highly recommend falconry. And, would have heen a lot more fun in summer
stephanie
Amazing and a must while in Ireland. Be a princess in a castle for one night or spend a relaxing well looked after week in a superb surroundings of the castle. Simply perfect
Jim
Our first visit to Ashford Castle was unforgettable, and we’re already planning our return. From the moment we drove through the gates, everything felt personal and welcoming. Every member of staff we met was friendly, kind, and genuinely attentive. Our room was perfect, the grounds were absolutely stunning, and the food was truly 5‑star. Breakfast was an experience in itself — the spread was incredible. A fabulous stay from start to finish.

CARRIE
We booked a king lake view room. It had heated floors, blackout curtains, beautiful art and the room was gorgeous. We felt like royalty. The staff was friendly and helpful in every way. We had the traditional Irish breakfast it was delicious. We did the falconry walk and boat rife of the lake. So much fun. The town of Cong is charming too. You will absolutely love Ashford Castle. The history is incredible and the art, bars, and restaurants are impeccable.
Njazi
Five Star Service!
Susan
Exceptional Castle Stay!
Ashford Castle was the best hotel that I have ever visited. The staff is delightful and facilities exceptional. We enjoyed a private Hawk Walk lead by Mel. She was terrific. We played 9 holes and had the course to ourselves. The grounds are breathtaking. The room that we stayed in thru Hotels.com was 420. What a beautiful room with lots of light. It was just amazing. It was a bit of heaven! You must visit.
Michael
This place is all you could ask for and more. By far the best place we’ve ever visited. Cannot wait to visit again
Linda
What can you say about the castle it's absolutely gorgeous people were wonderful. The history surrounding it the beautiful lake it's a wonderful place to go and relax. I do wish there would have been a snack bar closer but other than that oh my gosh the warm croissants in the morning Yes it's absolutely the best eggs Benedict I have ever eaten so bravo someday maybe I'll go back
Meredith
Excellent
Irene
It was a bit disappointing to be honest. Adare Manor and Ballyfin were much more superior.
The staff need a bit more training and attention to detail.
They were very friendly however.

Magical stay. Always.
Your activities facility is fantastic! Clay shooting. Horse back riding thru the amazing woods.
Breakfast service wonderful. The small town Cong walking distance is a great place to spend the day in. Everyone is so friendly and happy. Magical stay.
I do see that barroom needed some upkeep. The backs of the shower handle area looked poorly attached

This was our second time staying 2 nights at Asford Castle and it exceeded all expectations. The moment we pulled into the front gate it started our amazing experience. All staff, food, and accommodations were truly 5 star. The customer service is like no other.

Our stay at the Ashford Castle was truly amazing! Our first time there was memorable. Upon entering, we were greeted with such style and made us feel like we were royalty. Accomodations were breathtaking too. If you are planning a trip, make sure to book afternoon tea and the hawk walk at the falconry school. The only miss was that we stayed for one night, way too short to enjoy all that they have to offer. We will definitely be coming back.

Stunning castle! We loved exploring the castle grounds, being treated like royalty, the amazing beds and bedding 😉, good, and amazing service!!!

It’s the best hotel I have ever stayed in. The room was beautiful and well appointed. They’ve thought of every possible need you might have. You’re treated like a king or queen. The restaurants are first class. The service is second to none. If you have the opportunity to stay there don’t hesitate.

This was our third visit to Ashford Castle, and the experience remains spectacular. The physical building, the grounds, and particularly fabulous service from being met at the entrance to the property to the nightly turndown service with chocolates all deliver the ultimate luxury experience. We were able to take advantage of the boat tour, the morning dog walk, the movie theater, and a private wine tasting. Our only regret is that we didn't book early enough to take advantage of other activities such as falconry, archery and horseback riding. Something to look forward to on our next visit.

The best place ever!! It was our 2nd time back and just as wonderful as the first time. We would live here if we could :) It has the best hotel staff in the world.
Donna
Amazing property! Th service was impeccable-I would expect the absolute best given the property level. It has many many activities but must be reserved in advance which in some cases a disappointment should the availability be limited.

This is a spectacular property. The grounds are huge and really beautiful.
We did the hawk walk and it was the highlight of our one night stay. We ate in the bar for lunch and the ham and cheese baguette was sooo good then we had dinner in the dungeon and it was just good, not as great as I imagined it would be. Breakfast was also good but I've had better brunches. It was a really good experience and we are glad we stayed for at least one night.

The property is very beautiful especially the garden. There are a lot of fun activities on the property like horseback riding, archery, falconry, swimming, biking, golfing, tennis, etc. The staff is very friendly and nice. The staff is very helpful and they can assist you with all your needs. The movie theater and its snacks are also very delicious. If you look closely inside the castle you can find a secret hiding spot. The food is also delicious especially there breakfast aged ham. The golf course is beautiful and there aren’t much people so I totally recommend it.

This is one of the most comprehensive properties I have ever stayed in. It has so much to offer...restaurants with exceptional service and offerings, concierge service for your ever need, valet parking, transportation to every event or location on the property, garden tours, golf, falconing, fishing, boating....it's hard to do it all in such a short stay. And, oh by the way, the rooms are absolutely incredible! Beautifully decorated, modern communications systems, and ultra luxury within a fabulous setting. It is a Forbes 5 star hotel deserving of the Red Carnation listing. You pay for all of it, of course, but if you must stay at a place that cost you a bundle, this is the place.

Our second visit to Ashford and once again it was wonderful. The service is exemplary. Everyone is friendly and helpful. The rooms are lovely with very comfortable beds. Breakfast in the dining room is huge and delicious with lots of options for every palate. Don’t miss the opportunity to go on a hawk walk at the School of Falconry-it is a unique experience getting to handle these magnificent birds. I also recommend the morning dog walk with the castle’s Irish wolfhounds.

It lived up to the Hype. Glad we stayed in such a unique hotel.

Ashford castle is amazing. The grounds and accommodations are gorgeous. I wish i would have had more time at the castle and visited Cong, the town just outside. It wS all beautiful.
I recommend at least one full day if not too. I would have loved the boat tour and we wanted to do the falcon walk but should have booked ahead. Day of there was no availability. Id also make dinner reservations at one of the 3 hotel restaurants before your trip
Enjoy the amazing place.

Grounds are beautiful and you are treated like royalty from the moment you enter the hotel. You receive an orientation and you do receive calls to check in on how you are doing. There is no need to leave the grounds since there are a few restaurants to pick from on-premise. Short walk to Cong is you want to check out the Quiet Man bar. We stayed two days and wish it was longer.

So much fun to say I've stayed in a castle, eaten a fancy meal at a castle. The room was lovely, dinner at The George was wonderful. I really did feel like a princess. Thank you for taking such good care of me.
Dean
This is one of the most incredible properties in the world. Location on lake and River. It’s next to Great little village of Cong. One of my favorite places ever
Michele
There is nothing I can say about this property that would fully express how amazing it is. The beauty of the area, the staffs desire to ensure your happiness, their obvious (and rightly so) pride in The Castle, the myriad of things to do, both onsite and in the small town of Cong which is a beautiful 10 minute walk away - all of these things made this a vacation that I will never forget and will be hard to top.

Disappointing. I stayed at this property about 8 years ago and remembered the service was impeccable. That is why I returned. Unfortunately it has lost a great deal of its quality and service you would expect for $750 per night room. Only about half of the employees were friendly and pleasant the others didn’t seem to care much about providing service. You need to make reservations for the indoor pool which I found unusual. We opted to eat at the casual dining restaurant which was the only positive and enjoyable experience there. Our waitress was amazing. The room was small. Nothing in the mini bar is free, which was sad because you are paying a premium to stay there. On the previous night we stayed at a different 5 star hotel that gave us free beer, sodas, and endless water. Breakfast was horrible, my food came out soggy. They used to have a wonderful buffet 8 years ago but now you can only order from a menu and your options are limited. I would say this hotel this is more of a 4 star hotel, not luxury at all. The icing on the cake was when they loaded our luggage into the car and told us where it was parked so we could walk to it in the rain, they didn’t drive it to us.

The Ashford Castle is SIMPLY SPECTACULAR!! This was our second time staying at this magnificent hotel, and while we never thought we could top our first stay (which was amazing), we absolutely did!!
We were greeted by the wonderful staff like we were family. Niall, the General Manager, is just fantastic. He is so kind and so hands-on with everything there, which is probably why the hotel runs so perfectly. Catherine, who is so sweet was in the lobby to greet us with her warm smile. Brege and Eleanor in the dining room are the absolute sweetest! Francisco, Gian Paolo, and Katelyn took such great care of us every morning at breakfast and were just precious (and we loved Mike who brought us freshly squeezed juices). David, Connor, and Shane and just AWESOME and will make any arrangements you need. And last but definitely not least, Paddy, the wonderful lounge ambassador, is just the best!
The rooms are absolutely luxurious (heavenly beds, wonderful bathrooms & toiletries), the food at every restaurant is beyond delicious, and the activities are so unique. I highly recommend Falconry, the boat ride, archery, and the morning walk with the dogs. The common spaces are some of the most beautiful I have ever seen, and all warm and inviting! The service level is just superb!
I have been fortunate to stay in many fine hotels, and Ashford Castle is by far my favorite. My family is already planning our next visit and cannot wait to see all of our friends again soon!!
