Very quaint, but location was isolated and I think they should have a gift shop with some light snacks.

Everything was above our expectations, even our request for different pillows. They were delivered to our door within minutes. We enjoyed the Fahrenheit Room breakfast choices and atmosphere. We will recommend the Clontarf Castle Hotel to our friends.

Lovely, impressive hotel in a quiet, beautiful area outside of Dublin city center. Easy walks, taxi service prompt and inexpensive. Knight’s Bar great midweek dining and lively atmosphere. Would stay here on any subsequent visit to Ireland.

The staff at the pub and hotel were friendly and helpful with recommendations and castle history. Room and especially the bed were quite comfy. Food at the pub was good. The grounds are lovely and the neighborhood made for some nice walks and an organized Saturday park run just down the road. Not cheap but a very nice stay with plenty of parking in the off-peak spring season.

Loved staying in a hotel that was once actually a castle, beautifully appointed room with a window looking out on the older part of the building that we loved. The hotel is very well-designed, even with the modern entranceway, once you step inside it feels like a castle. The fireplaces were beautiful to sit and have a glass of wine, the high ceilings, the staircases, and our room itself with its comfortable bed were all fantastic. The modern, spotlessly clean bathroom was great, but they only provided one set of towels (one bath towel) for two people so we would have had to request a second towel. Not sure if that was just an oversight, but for such a nice hotel, it seemed odd. We had dinner in The Knights' Inn bar, and that was somewhat disappointing. The server took a long time to take our order and the food was brought out before the cocktails. My daughter ordered a salad which was bland and had to ask for dressing, as there was none provided. I ordered a vegetarian Thai curry which was not very tasty and not presented well. The soup was good, though, and we had ordered a goat cheese and mushrooms appetizer which was delicious. I guess my expectations for a "dinner in the castle" were too high, but I felt that the service and the food itself were sub-par and the menu did not have enough options. I believe there is a restaurant on-site which offers a fine dining experience but it was closed on the night we were there. The breakfast the next morning was very good though.

Beautiful castle with plenty of history and artwork to explore. Very helpful staff on the reception desk after we had an issue with the wi-fi, they were very responsive. Unfortunately the stay was let down by very poor service in the bar restaurant, it was painfully slow. There was also an unpleasant smell in the room, coming from the sink. The bed was very comfortable and the room a good size. Great transport links, very easy to get a bus into the city. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

The knights bar was really nice with friendly staff and the food was delicious. We were disappointed by the service in the Fahrenheit restaurant as the staff were rude and seemed to be inconvenienced by serving patrons, we had to constantly grab their attention for service. Overall our stay at Clontarf was excellent and would definitely visit again in the future.

Great castle/hotel. It looks and feels more of a 5-star than a 4-star property. King’s Suite is very spacious and luxurious. Good food options and breakfast buffet. Convenient to downtown Dublin (15-min) and airport. Will definitely go back.
