Absolutely loved this historic hotel and the ancient buildings, monuments and stone circle within the grounds.
Appreciated that the hotel was traditional in its style and decor. Loved our beamed bedroom with views over the deer park. The food was exceptional good and lovely to have several different lounges in which to relax or eat. The staff were friendly and hospitable with gems of knowledge about the building. Wish we had stayed longer.

This was a great place to stay. It is located just beside the Birr Castle Estate on a nice quiet street. The hosts were warm and welcoming. They gave us tips on where to eat and places to see. The accomodation was comfortable with outdoor seating in the garden. I would highly reccomend it for a lovely place to stay in Birr.

Beautiful Birr and this central guesthouse- wonderful decor - beside Birr castle that we came to visit. Great food and daytime restaurant attached
This castle was a true dream. The rooms and staff were fabulous. We had so much fun with Shawna and Lucy, their service was perfect and their interaction with us made our stay fun. The food and drinks were great and served with perfection. The castle was clean and made you feel like royalty. I am not sure if it had an elevator but we did not mind the stairs, you are after all in a true century old castle. We would recommend this to anyone looking to stay in a castle.

The castle itself is magnificent.
The castle itself is magnificent. Great Staff … all so friendly and helpful. Wedding Ceremony room was beautifully decorated. Excellent breakfast served with a smile 😊 Had a delicious meal in the library… definitely the most generous pizza I have come across. I could only get through half of it.
There is no lift so it was difficult bringing luggage up three flights of stairs.

It was fun staying in an authentic castle, it was preserved nicely. I wish we had taken time to walk the grounds and experience gardens and trails. We only stayed one night, and the accomodations were nice - but it was definately an "old" facility. The restaurant in the "dungeon" had a lot of character, the food was good but the service was awful.

The hiking trails around the castle were amazing, easy to complete (no steep hills, paths are large and comfortable). The animals live and animate the scenery. The room was great value for money.
The availability of food (good) at the bar was important since we arrived by taxi and didn't want to walk to the village to eat, although it's close by.
The water available to purchase could come in bigger sizes.

we stayed in Kinnity Castle and would highly recommend it for couples looking to get away for some alone time. food and service was excellent and the building was amazing. the rooms were spotless and very comfortable. theres also some nice walks nearby too!
The spaces in the hotel were extremely comfortable, the nature around was beautiful, the staff really nice and helpful. We enjoyed the food served at the Dungeon Bar, considering the standard prices in the country, it was more than reasonably priced. Breakfast was tasty, the breakfast room was elegant and overlooked the garden. We stayed in the Bernard suite and we were impressed by how spacious both the room and the bathroom were, the sight from the window was amazing.
There are easy hiking path starting from around the castle.
The suite we were staying in was exceptional. Beautiful roll top bath. Huge room with exquisite chandeliers. The bed was roomy and comfortable, authentic decor and the whole castle was surprisingly toasty. Food was tasty and we retired to the library bar for a night cap and a quiet read. Beautiful grounds for a walk the next morning completed a perfect stay at this glorious hotel.
Unique experience, something different and alternative! Ideal for a group getaway (especially hen/stag parties) or just a small group get together! Quite and remote, with Kinnitty castle trail loops up the road! We loved every minute of our stay! The pub itself is ideal, on the doorstep of the townhouse/lodges! pizza and pints, just simple & delicious!
What makes Kinnitty a terrific break, is the wonderful staff. They are so very courteous and helpful, that it was an absolute pleasure to stay there. Both my wife and I stayed there in 2019, and returned there last week. Lovely ambience for a break, great service and nice food. Kinnitty is wholly recommended.
Lovely place all around. The hotel itself was great in and of itself, but the surrounding grounds were worth exploring as well. Staff was amazingly friendly and efficient. The Dungeon Bar was a great place to have a drink or dinner, or both. Well worth visiting.
When you read the reviews and study website you come with high expectations which this place does not meet at all. Not at all nice place. We we left an found another hotel in 50 km distance.
The castle is majestic, just enough upgrades to make it fully functional, but has that feeling of old world… So glad we chose to stay here. The staff and amenities were awesome!
Loved the castle rooms. We felt like we were staying in a castle rather than a generic hotel. Greart attention to detail throughout the castle. Breakfast was excellent.
Our stay at Kinnitty castle was magical! Staff were so helpful and friendly, food was amazing and the castle and castle grounds were breathtaking! Can’t wait to return.
