Top Black Castle Hotel Reviews

The Club House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff members at reception and in the bar/restaurant could not have been more helpful throughout my stay. There was a slight issue with the plumbing in my room, and although it could not be fixed that night, the response of the evening reception staff member was prompt and they were genuinely willing to be of help. The hotel is in a great location and the restaurant food was lovely."

Hotel Kilkenny

Blackstairs Shepherds Huts

10/10 Excellent

"Cosy hut in a beautiful setting, with a warm welcome and delicious food provided by the hosts. Definitely one to return to."

Avlon House Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and were very impressed with the overall experience. We had two rooms, and both were spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. The hotel truly exceeded our expectations and offered more than we would typically expect from a 4-star hotel. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. They made us feel genuinely cared for and were always happy to assist with any questions or requests. They also gave us wonderful recommendations on places to visit and things to see in their beautiful country. I am so grateful that we listened to their advice, as some of those experiences became memories that will last forever. The location was also very convenient, only a 10-minute walk from the Irish Rail station, which made traveling to and from Dublin very easy. The breakfast was excellent, with a great selection of fresh and delicious options. It was a wonderful way to start each day before heading out to explore. The hotel also offered exceptional room service. Returning to the hotel after a long day of sightseeing truly felt like coming home—it was always relaxing, comfortable, and welcoming. Overall, we had an excellent experience and would definitely stay here again. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and welcoming place to stay!"

Talbot Hotel Carlow

8/10 Good

"Fine hotel. Good breakfast."

Woodford Dolmen Hotel

8/10 Good

"The property is a fairly nice place. Nothing special as far as rooms go, and the lack of air conditioning was a definite negative on a hot day. Windows helped but they don't have screens in the windows. Front desk staff was very friendly. Parking was easy. Grounds were very nice. My children enjoyed exploring the grounds."
