Despite the fact that the Bunratty Castle hotel is a quick drive from the airport, we arrived tired, cantankerous (that would be my husband) and white knuckled (that would be me). Immediately, the old hotel's intrinsic charm with it's lovely grounds and charming facade put us at ease. The old interior woodwork does show signs of wear but this is... More

My wife and I stayed at this hotel over new years with friends on a 2b/b + 1 dinner package and we had a lovely relaxing stay. When i heard after booking there were 2 weddings on both days we were there, I was a bit concerned as we usually try to avoid hotels with weddings on as they tend... More

e've just come back from a lovely weekend at the Bunratty Castle Hotel. The reason for the visit was our friend's wedding, and the reception was at the hotel so it was easiest to stay there. We got a very good deal, 2 nights B+B for 2 people for 140 Euros total cost. The hotel was nice and all the... More

We stayed in the hotel for three days after the christmas festivities for a bit of peace and quiet. We are regular visitors to this Hotel because it never fails to please. The reception staff are excellent, as are room service and the breakfast staff. Breakfast itself is excellent with a wide variety of food available. Our room was nice... More

I attended a wedding at the Hotel recently and found it to be a great experience, the staff couldn't do enough for us and were very accommodating with such a big crowd taking over their lobby. The service at the meal was exceptional, very organised and professional.I work in the hotel industry so I tend to expect the best so... More

We stayed here because we attended the Medival Banquet at the Castle. Our room was good sized, the bed comfortable and the bathroom well supplied and clean. The breakfast was just average served buffet style and nothing creative about it. The staff was luke warm both at the reception desk and at breakfast. After being treated so warmly throughout Ireland,... More

We stayed here the night before departing Ireland. While this sprawling place lacked the charm of the B&Bs we enjoyed through out trip, it was a large room with a big comfortable bed and a nice sized bathroom -- in short, what you expect when you stay at a decent modern hotel. It couldn't be more convenient, just a minute... More

I hosted my 40th birthday party in the Bunratty castle hotel and I have to say the staff were fantastic, they looked after very detail. In fact they looked after many of my requirements before I even knew that I had them. I had many relatives visit for my party and they (and I) stayed the night. The following morning... More
