Belleek Castle | Hotel in Ballina, County Mayo

“Parking out front of the castle was perfect. Great staff and warm environment. Wonder Michelin restaurant. Recommend soothe castle tour, incredible history!!”

“Belleek Castle was a wonderful place to visit and to stay. Amenities were great and the standard of the breakfast was unmatched anywhere. However the maintenance and upkeep on the property must be a challenge and some of this was apparent to a keen eye. Had we known ahead that we would not be dining in the room with the vaulted ceiling, I probably would not have gone to the trouble of laundering and pressing the Sunday best clothes we wore. Nevertheless, despite the scant dinner cuisine served, we had a splendid time for a ‘one off’ stay. The late checkout time was an additional bonus as was the next morning’s walk through ‘the woods’.”

“Amazing restaurant and beautiful castle. A gem of architecture, the bar made like a galleon was superb. The meal was excellent and the staff attentive. If there was one issue the sound travels between the bedrooms clearly as we heard snoring from another room all night. I'd certainly recommend this hotel and will return in future.”

“The castle has an interesting history, and the museum of the owners collection of artifacts is truly impressive. The food in the restaurant was excellent, with an extensive wine selection and well crafted cocktails using local ingredients. The staff went above and beyond for us in regards to making sure we had everything we needed, and we even got a private tour of the house. The staff were truly so welcoming and attentive. I cannot recommend this stay enough.”

“Pros: All staff was very friendly and helpful. Free breakfast (and other meals) from the adjoining restaurant, Jack Fenn, was good. Parking was easy and convenient, being free, and right outside the front door. Very comfortable environment, loved the smell of the fire as we walked in to check in. Nice wooded area to walk around (although I was disappointed in humanity to see so much trash along the beautiful trails). Cons: Water was barely warm enough to shower, but good water pressure. No washcloths available (maybe this is not typical shower equipment outside of the US), baseboards in the bathroom could've used a good scrubbing, parts of the shower were broken (handheld piece just leaked water heavily without proper function). Guests were charged €12.00 per person to have a guided tour of the small museum/medieval collection that is kept at the castle. Spoiler alert: you can walk through it for free on your way to breakfast (but obviously don't get the guide/history). Dinner at the property comes at the flat price of $70 per person with minimal food options (we opted to not partake). Other note: The Expedia write up about this property mentioned multiple times about the property having laundry facilities, but the staff was confused when I asked about doing laundry. We drove into town and used a laundrette instead. Overall, I loved the ambiance, but probably wouldn't book another stay. Felt like a one-and-done type stay.”

“This was a lovely stay and full of exquisite taste and unforgettable memories.”

“Beleek Castle is a truly special experience. The grounds are amazing - lots of beautiful woodland trails. The interior is stunning and is like a museum. The rooms are spacious and beautifully appointed. You will get a friendly welcome from owner, Paul Doran, in the dining room. Staff is very responsive and helpful. We loved this place- a really special experience.”
