Very Good

Beautiful property. The staff were very accomodating, the rooms were large and well- appointed. We enjoyed the pub for dinner, and walked to Dromoland Castle through a golf course to go to a falconry tour- which was amazing!
Clean, comfortable and convenient to SNN. Bed was very comfortable, although the room was stifling and the window can only be opened a crack so the temperature was somewhat unpleasant. Bathroom and related amenities were good. Appreciate their commitment to sustainability.

Some areas of this property need to be updated. The carpets look dirty in the hallways and in our room. They need a good steam clean or to be replaced. Overall, the hotel was good for our two nights. The breakfast was nice. The hotel was next to the Dromoland Castle and golf course. It is a beautiful area to walk around! The walled garden is incredible!
The in house bar and restaurant seemed lively and had local, live music several days a week. The property’s amenities were nice, but again they seem to be a bit in need of some updating and repair. The Expedia property details should include the fact that swim caps are required for the pool, which they charge you three euros each for unless you bring your own.The design of the shower stall in the rooms was terrible and we could not figure out how to keep water from getting all over the floor, which made it very slippery. Beds were quite hard, which some may like. Parking was awesome! Nice place for people with young children to stay since they have family rooms and outside games in addition to indoor pool.
Don't eat in their pub. Expensive and poor service
We had an amazing time at the hotel but the service we got at there first class pub was horrible. No attention from our waiter. The food was subpar and when we complained we got offered more to drink then a discount.
Unfortunately the hotel needs updating and everything felt dirty except the updated and clean bathrooms. The carpet was dirty, the walls were in need of a good painting or at least a wipe down. The upside to it was we were able to walk the property at The Dromoland Castle which was gorgeous!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Average at best
The property needs some updating and renovation for sure. I had read this in a number of other reviews so I wasn’t surprised. We went to Shannigan’s twice for dinner my Chicken Caesar Salad was lacking one key element “chicken” it was more like a few crumbs and a complete waste of time. This is also mentioned in other reviews. There were a lot of staff but no one seemed to be actually interested in serving us. I lost track of how long it took to get and pay the bill.
I still think about the Irish beef and red wine stew from their onsite restaurant at least once a day. Definitely worth the 11 hour flight and additional drive. Room was clean and staff friendly. Appreciated the in room oscillating fan that helped dry my toddler’s shoes after he jumped in the river in Gort.
Good spacious clean room. Staff friendly especially the man checking us in for breakfast sorry didn't get his name. Good location with Dromoland castle not far away
The property is lovely for single travelers, couples and families. The room and bathroom were clean and spacious. We would definitely stay at the Inn at Dromoland again. We would recommend this inn for our friends and family.
Very fine functional hotel. A spacious family room with a comfortable bed…and was quiet. Irish breakfast was good. Had a meal in the hotel restaurant each evening - ample tasty portions with most attentive service. Would book to stay here again.
The staff was extremely friendly and hospitable.
I felt breakfast was overpriced, but honestly a full Irish breakfast at a restaurant would probably cost about the same. Everything was delicious (some of the best scrambled eggs, sausage, and baked beans I've ever tasted!) and the seating process was fast and organized.
My room was a little warm but there was a fan available to help cool it down a little. The view from my room was someone's backyard, which felt a little awkward, but I could always just close the curtains. Speaking of the curtains, they completely blocked out all light, which was extremely helpful when I was trying to sleep off my jetlag!
Overall a great start for my first visit to Ireland!
