Top Mullingar Hotel Reviews

Castle Arch Hotel

Castle Arch Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed here 32 years ago when it was called The Wellington next door to Atlantic 252 where I was to work. I revisited in October 2026, the member of staff upon my arrival was warm, friendly, and welcoming. The gentleman behind the bar fantastic. Room functional and clean, the breakfast fantastic. The restaurant staff inviting and friendly. The check out lacked warmth, friendliness, no smile, abrupt as though I was an inconvenience, and when I asked where is the bus stop now for the Dublin service you would have thought I'd asked them to explain Quantum Field Physics - they went into orbit!! Would I stay again may be. Compared to 1994 there are far more options available."
