Reviews and Ratings
I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel. The rooms were big and beautifully decorated, with a huge bathroom and lovely amenities. The service was impeccable, with a professional and friendly staff that went above and beyond. The location, tucked away in the woods, was enchanting and peaceful. The dining experience was exceptional, featuring locally sourced produce and a great variety of choices. Overall, a wonderful stay with just a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel offers fantastic walks with friendly dogs, amazing food, and a great location close to Ballina town centre and Enniscrone Beach. The rooms are smaller than expected but cozy with a fireplace. The service is exceptional with informative and friendly staff. The dining experience is delightful but would benefit from some improvements. Minor maintenance issues exist in the castle area. The surroundings are beautiful, safe, and secluded, making for a lovely stay.
Staying at the castle was like stepping back in time to a beautifully restored era, with ornate and spacious rooms, but some minor updates detracted from the overall historical charm. The service was pleasant, though not overwhelmingly warm. The location offered a mix of history and charm, complemented by fantastic walks around the castle grounds with energetic canine companions. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the early dinner option for a truly magnificent meal, but not ideal for business clients. The facilities provided a good experience overall.
My stay at the Belleek Castle was like a fairytale come to life. The rooms were spacious and unique, featuring magnificent wood carvings. Though it took me a while to get to sleep due to a spider encounter, the large room with comfortable beds, hot shower, and plenty of water made up for it.
The hotel rooms are simply stunning, a great blend of new and old with a modern bathroom and old-worldy bedroom. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond, making our stay unforgettable. The location, full of history and charm, added to the overall experience. The dining was the cherry on the cake with delicious food and top-notch service.
