Top Rock of Dunamase Hotel Reviews
Kilkea Castle
10/10 Excellent
"This is one of the most amazing places I have ever stayed in my life. If you’re looking for a bucket list experience I highly recommend staying here. The grounds are gorgeous, the staff is friendly and helpful. The room was clean and spacious. Plenty of things to do and there’s also spots to eat. I cannot recommend Kilkea Castle enough."
The Heritage
8/10 Good
"We had a lovely weekend at the Heritage, it was our 2nd year anniversary, the staff were all so friendly, in particular a blonde manager of Seven Bar, I think her name is Kate but I can't be sure. She went out of her way to look after us and all customers on the two nights we were there, she was a credit to your hotel. The Blooms bar was a nice unexpected surprise. The only unfortunate critique I would have to advise on, was the bathroom and pool surfaces, although signs in places they are very slippy, I slipped coming out of the pool and room bathroom (even with flipflops) thankfully I didn't fall or hurt myself, but I would urge older people to be aware of this when staying. The breakfast was lovely on the Monday morning, however, Tuesday morning seemed to be a different chef and both meals were extremely salty which we didn't finish and was a little disappointing on the last day.. Overall we had a lovely cosy stay, we enjoyed the comfort, relaxation and the friendly staff."

Avalon House Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"This was a great place! The car park was around the back of the building with plenty of spaces. The room was clean and well maintained and the bed was comfortable. We ate in the bar restaurant and the food was delicious. Our waiter, John, gave us excellent advice on things to see and do in the area and Trish, one of the managers, went above and beyond with hospitality. I’d definitely stay here again."
