The staff were very friendly and couldnt have been more helpful. The resident Irish wolf hound is a pure pet . Evening meal waß outstanding as was breakfast. Will definitely be back
The property is beautiful and the rooms are comfortable. I enjoyed the serenity of the castle hotel. My only recommendation would be to improve the breakfast options/use fresher ingredients.
We loved every second in the castle. From the moment we arrived we were treated so well and felt right at home. The grounds were so lovely and peaceful and it was a fab night away. Breakfast was delicious too. 100% booking a trip back again.
Markree Castle is a great option for those staying in and around Sligo. The castle itself is beautiful with lots of gardens on the property to explore.
The room we stayed in was spacious and the bathroom in particular was very nice.
Only cons in the room were no fridge and no easily accessible outlets by the bedsides.
The best thing about our stay here was the food. The dinner was the best meal we had in Ireland (and we also stayed at Ashford Castle) and the breakfast was also very good
This is a once in a lifetime kind of hotel stay. I mean what can compare to staying in a castle ? The castle itself is super charming and unique. The grounds are immaculate. And the dining is wonderful. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious. Bed was comfortable. Room was quiet. I can’t say enough good things about our stay.
Magnificent castle and hotel. The only castle hotel we stayed in that truly felt like being in an authentic castle. Quite an impressive drive up to be topped off by the dramatic, candlelit, red-carpeted staircase. The claw footed tub in its own turret off of our bedroom was sublime. Not to be missed! From the stain-glassed windows and chapel, oversized paintings, the complimentary cakes and tea, to the manicured castle grounds, excellent breakfast and good dinner in the beautiful dining room with attentive staff.
The hotel was very clean, and we really liked the way it was decorated. Overall, the service was excellent, and the location made it easy for us to access all of our planned activities in Dublin, including the Guinness Storehouse, Trinity College, and plenty of nearby shopping and restaurants. One thing to keep in mind is that the rooms are not equipped with refrigerators or microwaves, which was a bit inconvenient since we would have liked to store leftovers but couldn’t. Aside from that minor inconvenience, our overall experience was great.
We loved everything about this Castle Resort! We felt like Royalty staying in this historic castle…. The grounds were immaculately maintained, as were the guest rooms and all interior areas.
Dinner was fantastic as was breakfast.
We would not hesitate to recommend staying here!
Amazing place to stay and amazing staff. Especially loved our furry greeting from Fionne, the resident wolf hound. The setting is peaceful and a great re-set. Would highly recommend, don’t hesitate in booking!
