The Step House hotel was one of our favorite stays on our Ireland trip! We had a beautiful and spacious room that opened onto a terrace overlooking the gardens and mountains in the distance. We enjoyed a delicious dinner and breakfast in the 1808 Pub. The staff was wonderful and the extra touches like flowers and prosecco in the room made this the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary and start off our trip! We enjoyed the small town of Borris and walking the Railway trail. We hope to...

This was a REAL CASTLE, two of walls were from 1425..AMAZING. We were able to walk around and enjoy the beautiful grouds (there was even a tennis court on sight!) And lots of beautiful flowers and trees. The location is somewhat remote, and very quiet. But you can almost imagine it hundreds of years ago. That said, the guest rooms were of good size, very clean and modern. One of our favorite places we stayed in southern Ireland. I do not believe there was a lift/elevator, which did not matter...

It was wonderful to be in Ireland again and at this wonderful Hotel. Staff, food & rooms were the best! Even the dinner we had for our Irish cousins in the BAR area was great service and we all enjoyed. Please let all your staff know how great they were. Very Clean & relaxing.
Have a nice day & Many Blessings Jo Ann Thomas

Room was beautiful and comfortable. Breakfast was so delicious and included all homemade breads. The owners were so friendly and helpful during our stay.

My girlfriend and I had the most amazing stay here. Pauline is the best host and a fantastic cook. She would always go out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and would always respond to any questions we had promptly. Breakfast was always served on time and I wish I had more room in my stomach to eat more. Everything was clean and well kept. The bed was beyond comfortable. Bathroom was spacious and clean. The bathtub was great for the end of the night for winding down. The bathrobes...

Great little locally owned place. The food was good. The pub was great. Friendly locals gathered as well as fellow travelers. Had a great time and really enjoyed staying at the hotel so much, we decided to stay another night.
The staff was also very accommodating where they could be, although we did have a few issues. We had some trouble with no heat in our room the first night. The staff was quick to respond to turn it on that evening; however, it didn't get/stay on, so it never warmed up, and...
