Over priced, mediocre, awful red plastic bed in quay suite so down graded to drab entry level room (but got no credit or refund -said it was expedias job) pictures didn’t reflect reality, would never go back.

Excellent service and decor. Food was amazing. Very comfortable. Also access to most areas on Ashford estate. The walk with Wolfhounds was definitely a highlight
5.0
We had a fantastic time. The Wolfhound walk was so nice and he was hysterical. We also had dinner at George V, which was an amazing experience. However, the thing that I will never forget was the school of Falconry. We did the 90 minute Hawk Walk and it was one of the most amazing experiences in my life!
5.0
There is no greater value for your money. The lodge itself is beautiful and as a standalone hotel is well worth the price but given the fact you get full access to the Ashford castle and grounds it’s a no brainer.
The staff at the lodge are fantastic. Especially Kevin at breakfast. The breakfast itself, included in the price, was phenomenal.

Excellent stay; staff were welcoming and extremely attentive, the room and all areas were comfortable and spotless. Food was good - I had an issue with part of my meal in Wilde's and this was rectified immediately. Breakfast was the best we have ever experienced.

We recently stayed at the Lodge at Ashford Castle, then a night at the castle itself. I have never experienced such a level of service. Everything was amazing and the staff went above and beyond to exceed our expectations. They have raised the bar.

What great service and wonderful food. Super place to stay, looking forward to going back some day
2.5
We booked for our wedding anniversary and also invited family to join us for a stay. I had emailed prior to book dinners and excurisons for our stay and informed it was our wedding anniversary but it was not acknowledged which was disappointing as we had stayed in a hotel the previous night who noted our anniversary and we appreciate attention to detail. The staff are very friendly especially Brian who kindly helped with our luggage and driving us around. Breakfast and dinner was delicous. We appreciated how dog friendly the hotel is and the lovely dog beds, bowls and snacks that were in our room. Our 2 little doggies were well looked after.
2.5
Fantastic stay, the staff are so friendly and everyone was so nice to our 2 little dogs which ee really appreciated. The breakfast was delicous and the dinner is worth going back for more, it was superb. We enjoyed our stay. It was our wedding anniversary which we informed the hotel months in advance and it was not acknowledged which was disappointing.

Amazing location, wonderful hotel & staff are so friendly nothing is too much trouble. Will most definitely be a returning guest.

We stayed for 2 nights in a duplex suite room 121. Decor is modern, bed extremely comfortable (only item to be andjousted is the shower as no matter what direction your in water leaks out). we had our dog with us and I have to say she was treated like a VIP with a treat left for her, dog bed, bowls and towel and all the staff were super nice. The food In wildes restaurant is outstanding and the venison for main course was superb. The only criticism is if you have breakfast in the gallery with your 4 legged friend the service is a little disjointed. However, they did provide food for her also.
All in all an excellent stay and we will definitely come back.

Lovely welcome, shown to room which was dreadful. Bright red carpets and bright red plastic bed. Felt like we were in a pornstars bedroom!! Also a shower over the bath which we don’t like. Asked to be moved to another room and advised reception that we were Gold hotel.com members ,eventually after quite a very long conversation and a long wait we were upgraded to a beautiful suite. We ordered room service one afternoon and paid €18 for a soggy awful toasted sandwich, at checkout we were astonished to see they had charged us an additional €7.50 for bring the sandwich to our room. We were also charged €20 staff tip, we asked for the tip to be removed, we had already tipped several staff.
The staff at breakfast were delightful, the doormen were very friendly. The breakfasts were very good. We ate at Cullen’s at the Castle one night, food and service were excellent but we felt it was overpriced.
1.5
Maybe I missed it but I feel the marketing was very opaque regarding access to the castle. STAYING AT THE LODGE DOES NOT GIVE YOU ACCESS TO THE CASTLE. you only then can access the castle by booking a reservation for an 80 euro per person tour or a meal at one of their restaurants, but they don’t tell you on their website which restaurants are in the castle. If you have a booking for a restaurant, They will let you walk around and explore the castle and go to the bars. You can’t just go in to get a drink at the bar.
Restaurants:
Cullens is in a thatched house next to but not in the castle.
Wildes is at the lodge, not in the castle.
Stanley’s is in the basement of the castle but does not take reservations.
George V is a traditional fancy restaurant in a ballroom type setting.
The drawing room is the main room attached to the Prince of wales bar and has a nice view of the back grounds and lake. Lunch only.
The connaght room is for afternoon tea, also a beautiful setting.
The dungeon is in the basement of the castle. This is where we ate and the food and service was very good. Very nice ambiance.
Bars:
The billiards room. Has a large snooker table and they will teach you how to play! Has a real fire and smells like it, but in a cozy castle kind of way. Menu is the same as the bar downstairs. Small outdoor patio. Has cigars as well.
Prince of wales bar. Nice classy bar on the main floor. Same menu as upstairs.
The lodge:
Beautiful rooms, heated floors, small fridges.

Another Good stay at Ashford Castle Lodge
We stayed two nights in a quay Suite
Suite was very clean & comfortable
It is worth the little bit extra to stay in a suite if you can
Male breakfast Host & Lady Host were absolutely excellent ( so sorry I do not have names ) The lady did her best to assist when maintenance were drilling in a room directly above us during breakfast service
Breakfast was a good quality, the house home made baked beans are a must ! you will never eat heinz again
On check out, the friendly & efficient reception Manager was very helpful in sorting a small issue that was previously highlighted to the reception team during the stay without resolution
We did not eat in Wildes restaurant this time but was very enjoyable previous stay
We enjoyed drinks/ lunch on the terrace & after dinner drinks in the lovely bar
The new spa/pool was not open yet ( another couple of weeks ) but the friendly manager showed us around, he is obviously very proud of his new project & rightly so as it looks amazing!
The grounds are extensive & very well looked after, there are lovely walking trails
A very good stay !

Staying at the Lodge was a beautiful experience and I hope to return soon. We brought two dogs and the staff was incredibly sweet and accommodating with them. Plus the food and setting was amazing. We took a tour of the lake by boat and a trail ride with Ashford Outdoors and both were lovely. I also joined the wolfhound walk in the morning and had a ton of fun.
The best part of the stay was the amazing staff. They were kind and looked out for us our whole stay.

Stay at the actual castle. Awful blue lighting at night. Felt like an odd motel. Worst dinner of our trip.
