The hotel grounds are just stunning Breakfast in a castle is pretty top tier! Good options for breakfast and everything was well cooked and delicious, had more a bed and breakfast feels rather than hotel with more intimate table service. I would have preferred better quality and more options with bread, rather than low quality white and brown sliced for toast that was served. I did feel this let down the breakfast. This is the only reason I dropped a star. ##### Fergal Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ruth May 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We enjoyed a wonderful family birthday weekend.

Short walk to the main castle And beside the restaurants. Room was spacious and the bed was big. The TV system /channels and remote not very good though. We did the small spa, which was lovely. 25 per person for an hour. Breakfast was in the castle for us as we stayed in Feb, otherwise I think the lodges are in hermiones restaurant. The breakfast was lovely. ##### leonard Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Gregory Aug 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Property is beautiful and quiet. A little too quiet - if you don't play golf there is not much to do. The Lodges are older and looking a little worn. Staying here is still a good experience, ##### Gregory Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Syed May 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a golfer’s paradise. My golfer uncle from US would love this place. I am not a golfer but stayed at the lodges to attend a wedding in nearby Athy. The receptionists were lovely and extremely helpful. I should have taken their names. A special shoutout to the manager (again I didn’t take her name) of Hermione's Restaurant Friday evening 1st May and Saturday’s morning 2nd May for breakfast. She was very friendly, polite and professional. I would definitely recommend this place for a peaceful accommodation and delicious food. If you are a golfer, this will be a dream vacation. Thank you kindly, Kilkea Castle. ##### Syed Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberly May 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Outstanding! The service and staff was amazing. From our first experience with Micheal( first day on the job) too Emily ( whom I believe was in training) she made our experience at the club house for dinner a fantastic time. Thank you both. ##### Kimberly Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### James Mar 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful property. Very nice staff. Really cool place. Only complaint I would have is turn that terrible musack off. Do something else. Playing terrible elevator music ruins the environment ##### James Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Aug 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Beautiful castle and grounds but weak infrastructu Despite the ‘Lodges’ name, these units are more like motel suites than picturesque lodges. The furniture is neither updated modern nor classic- just dated. The bathrooms have not been renovated and the facilities are mediocre. The castle is beautiful structurally but poorly curated. Food and service at the Cadtle dining room was good. Food service at the Lodge dining room was erratic, slow and below standard. Great potential with poor execution. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Frederick Sep 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent Resort, we wished we had booked a few more days there. ##### Frederick Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Radisson Blu Hotel, Athlone](https://www.expedia.ca/Athlone-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel.h1076553.Hotel-Information) > > [Rochestown Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Rochestown-Lodge-Hotel-Spa.h1094620.Hotel-Information) > > [Abbey Court](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Abbey-Court.h13231806.Hotel-Information) > > [Powerscourt Hotel, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Enniskerry-Hotels-Powerscourt-Hotel.h1680006.Hotel-Information) > > [Portmarnock Resort & Jameson Golf Links](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Portmarnock-Resort-Jameson-Golf-Links.h445188.Hotel-Information) > > [Dingle Skellig Hotel & Peninsula Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Dingle-Hotels-Dingle-Skellig-Hotel-Peninsula-Spa.h5282541.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa, Limerick](https://www.expedia.ca/Limerick-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Hotel-Spa.h898071.Hotel-Information) > > [Trump International Golf Links And Hotel Doonbeg Ireland](https://www.expedia.ca/Doonbeg-Hotels-Trump-International-Golf-Links-And-Hotel-Doonbeg-Ireland.h1579827.Hotel-Information) > > [Ballyseede Castle](https://www.expedia.ca/Tralee-Hotels-Ballyseede-Castle.h525340.Hotel-Information) > > [Carlton Hotel Dublin Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Carlton-Hotel-Dublin-Airport-Hotel.h1453052.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Grand-Hotel.h45673.Hotel-Information) > > [The River Lee Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cork-Hotels-The-River-Lee-Hotel.h13650.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Tobermory](https://www.expedia.ca/Tobermory-Hotels.d59192.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Mount Juliet Estate, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Thomastown-Hotels-Mount-Juliet-Estate.h891736.Hotel-Information) > > [Hodson Bay Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Athlone-Hotels-Hodson-Bay-Hotel.h2197837.Hotel-Information) > > [Maldron Hotel Dublin Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Maldron-Hotel-Dublin-Airport.h1331635.Hotel-Information) > > [Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Clayton-Hotel-Dublin-Airport.h2226273.Hotel-Information) > > [The Granville Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Waterford-Hotels-The-Granville-Hotel.h13715.Hotel-Information) > > [Shamrock Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Athlone-Hotels-Shamrock-Lodge-Hotel.h4641300.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Shannon Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Shannon-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Shannon-Airport.h1095.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashford Castle](https://www.expedia.ca/Cong-Hotels-Ashford-Castle.h76936.Hotel-Information) > > [Cabra Castle Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingscourt-Hotels-Cabra-Castle-Hotel.h114456.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in New York](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels.d178293.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Crowne Plaza Dublin Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Dublin-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-Dublin-Airport.h1042443.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels.d178296.Travel-Guide-Hotels) ### Cruise ### Packages ### General
