Unbelievable Birthday Experience
What impressed us most was the staff. Every interaction was warm, professional, and flawlessly executed. They made us feel welcome from beginning to end and elevated an already extraordinary stay.
Our dinner at The Dungeon was exceptional. We started with the classic prawn cocktail and Scotch egg before enjoying the beef filet, dry-aged pork chop, the famous Dungeon lamb pie, and the Hanging Room Cut of the Week—a perfectly cooked lamb chop that was absolutely delicious. Paired with the potatoes and other sides, it was incredible. The staff also surprised me with a small birthday treat, which was a thoughtful gesture and appreciated. Given the overall expense of both the stay and the meal, however, it felt a bit modest for such a special celebration.
The accommodations were elegant, luxurious, and full of character while still being incredibly comfortable. Every part of our stay exceeded our expectations.
If you’ve ever dreamed of spending a night in a castle, Ashford Castle is everything you imagine and more. It is a magical experience that we will never forget, and we hope to return someday.

Our first of many visits to Ashford Castle
In our room, chocolates, sherry, and a personalised TV welcome were lovely touches. After a long drive, the accessible spa was the perfect way to unwind.
Dinner was memorable. Arezki, our French waiter, kindly ensured our steaks were cooked exactly as requested, and the restaurant manager’s complimentary drink afterwards showed real care for guest satisfaction.
At breakfast, the kitchen kindly prepared fresh laminated bread for us again, which was delicious and much appreciated.
As my wife has limited mobility while awaiting knee replacements, Marianna arranged a Castle minibus tour with Vincent when a buggy was unavailable. His knowledge of the estate and Cong, including the underground river between Lough Mask and Corrib, made it a wonderful experience.
Throughout our stay, the staff’s impeccable manners impressed us. Marianna, Sabrina, Joe, Arezki, Vincent, the restaurant team, the chef, and Shane in the Castle boutique were all excellent ambassadors for the hotel.

Thank you sincerely for sharing such a thoughtful and beautifully detailed review of your first stay at Ashford Castle. It means a great deal to know that your visit was memorable from the very moment you arrived, and that so many members of our team helped make your time with us truly special.
It’s wonderful to hear how warmly Dan and Joe welcomed you at the gate and entrance, and that Sabrina ensured your room preparation was handled with care by arranging a history tour and a glass of champagne to make the wait enjoyable. We’re delighted that the touches in your room — the chocolates, sherry, and personalised TV greeting — added to the sense of occasion, and that the spa provided the perfect place to unwind after your journey.
Your kind words about your dining experience are greatly appreciated. Arezki will be thrilled to know his attention to detail made your dinner memorable, and the restaurant manager will be equally pleased that his gesture contributed to your enjoyment. We’re also delighted that the freshly prepared laminated bread at breakfast was such a highlight.
It’s especially heart‑warming to read your comments about the care shown to your wife. Marianna’s thoughtful arrangement of a Castle minibus tour with Vincent, and his knowledgeable and engaging commentary, clearly made a meaningful difference to your stay. We’re proud to know that accessibility and guest comfort were so well supported throughout your visit.
Thank you for recognising so many of our colleagues — Marianna, Sabrina, Joe, Arezki, Vincent, the restaurant team, the chef, and Shane in the boutique. They are indeed wonderful ambassadors for Ashford Castle, and your appreciation will mean a great deal to each of them.
It was a pleasure to welcome you both, and we truly hope this will be the first of many visits. We look forward to creating more memorable experiences for you in the future.
Warm Regards,
Niall Rochford
