Ballinalacken Castle Country House Hotel

Decklin, Cecelia and Daniel were wonderful hosts! They were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The guest rooms were very clean and comfortable and the grounds were absolutely lovely! The food was outstanding and we enjoyed our breakfasts and dinners in the hotel. Nothing disappointed. One of my favorite things was to enjoy my morning coffee in bed which had a view of the cliffs in the distance and wildflowers in the foreground. The castle tour gave a glimpse back into history which I really enjoyed. Doolin is a short drive from the hotel and we enjoyed the quaint homes, shops and pubs which also served amazing food. In the evenings there is live Irish music and a fun, friendly vibe. The Cliffs of Moher is a short drive and a must see! The coastal walk was closed when we visited but it was still so beautiful with the area that was open. We took the Doolin Ferry to the Aran Islands which I recommend doing. Innis Mor is fascinating and definitely added a layer of history and charm to our trip. Ballinalacken Castle Hotel was the perfect base for our 4 day stay and we enjoyed it so much. Thank you Decklin, Cecilia and Daniel for a wonderful stay ❤️ We are so appreciative of all your help and hospitality!

Our stay at this hotel was an unforgettable experience. The room was beautiful, the beds incredibly comfortable, the dinner was excellent in a beautiful dining room with delicious food and a large selection of excellent Irish whiskey, the service at dinner was attentive and very nice. The breakfast was delicious and pleasant. Overall, a very romantic environment, attentive and nice staff and the owner, who prepared a private and unforgettable tour of the castle for us. We will long remember our best accommodation during our Irish road trip, and we will definitely come back here. THANK YOU

We loved our stay at Ballinalacken Castle. The bed was ENORMOUS and the comfiest we have ever slept on, and the room extremely spacious. We loved how everyone went above and beyond for us, starting with when we checked in and being offered a better room free of charge. Dinner was delicious, we had great drinks at the bar and to top it off we had an unreal castle tour with Declan (a must do). Many thanks to Declan and Cecilia!
