Kinnitty Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Simply fantastic. The staff and accomodations were excellent, and we so appreciated receiving a very kind complimentary room upgrade to celebrate our anniversary. The history of the castle and surrounding land is fascinating and steeped in lore, and we enjoyed learning more about this this very special part of the heart of Ireland."

8/10 Good
"I was here with my kids. They had a great time. It’s a great family hotel. It was very busy. The food was good, I would avoid the nachos. Service was very friendly but sometimes a little scattered. Particularly at breakfast in the morning"
