鲁赫爱斯基城堡酒店

The hotel and grounds are magnificent. The food in the restaurant and bar are excellent which is important because the hotel is not near town.

Beautiful hotel. Grounds were beautiful. Pol was very nice

Superb hotel. Everything about our stay here was excellent. Helpful, friendly staff, excellent facilities, lovely surroundings, beautiful rooms. Dinng experience was superb, breakfast was superb with a wide variety of foods to choose from. Peaceful, nice rooms to sitquietly with your drink and enjoy the surroundings. Pool and gym facilities used and we found these superb. Definitely a great place to stay.

The property is unique in that it’s a very old castle turned into a hotel. The grounds are meticulously maintained, and the rooms have contemporary amenities while maintaining an historical ambiance. The lounge served excellent food for lunch and dinner, with an absolutely delicious Sticky Toffee Pudding that is sure to impress Paul Hollywood and Mary Berry!❤️❤️ The breakfast is excellent with ample buffet and à la carte selections. The staff is VERY courteous, considerate, and helpful! Excellent 11am historical tour. Beautiful grounds for walking/hiking. Highly recommend staying here!

It was first class all the way! We were greeted by Shea, the professional concierge. He was fabulous and very informative. We had the superior deluxe room with a bay window. It was very large and beautiful. The bathroom was just as nice and big. The entire staff was wonderful.

Absolutely perfect stay. Gorgeous property, incredibly friendly and helpful staff. We enjoyed dinner one night at the bar restaurant, the beautiful pool overlooking the garden, and incredible breakfast both days of our stay.

Stunning hotel with everything you could need. Staff were super friendly and the spa and breakfast were amazing!

Room magnificent! Loved the food and service was amazing

This of all our stats was our favorite. From the time we connected with Shea, e enjoyed every minute of it. He was extremely thorough in providing advice on the room to the details about the property. Everything was well thought through to provide our best experience.

Fantástico c hotel in an d castle. Spa was wonderful. Restaurant was very good. The room was near perfect very lathe. Lack of air conditioning was not an issue for us with windows open. Must stay here if nest!

A gorgeous castle.

Wonderful stay

Overall on the surface of it Lough Eske looks grand and wonderful. The room I stayed in was very spacious and very clean. All the staff I interacted with were all very helpful. The breakfast was a big positive. Tasted great and the staff very attentive. When you look closer there are a number of parts of the hotel that look tired and need attention. I was particularly disappointed in the spa area. It had a number of maintenance issues such as bulbs out, loose wiring for the switches of the hydro pool and the scum on the railings was thick grey sludge. It made me not want to spend much time there. Also whilst trying to relax there was a staff member walking back and forth entering and exiting going outside looking like he was putting a delivery away. I also raised concerns as my booking details including name and telephone appeared to be part of a data breach on the hotel system as I received scam WhatsApp messages before arriving attempting to gain my credit card details. I did raise this to the hotel via email and upon arrival but my concerns were not addressed. I wouldn’t rush back to stay here again unfortunately and couldn’t recommend based on my experience.

The staff was helpful and friendly, but unfortunately the rooms and common areas were not very clean during our stay. Also, the listing mentioned that there was an onsite playground, but it appears to have been removed, which was disappointing.

We were unable to get internet service by computer or phone. A 5 star hotel needs to provide adequate coverage for its customers. The bed was really soft and not of good quality. The dinners were exceptional. Having to fight Tauck Tour Bus and wedding parties is not the experience people who want to stay in a castle want. The hotel appeared to be short staffed but the staff did get the job done. The only person I did not care for was the front desk person.

The entrance to Lough Eske Castle is a facade that was built sometime in the late 1800s. This is important because it looks like something out of someone's Disney fantasy. If you're looking for a 5-star historically relevant architectural site, this is not for you. We had room 248. It was literally a 3000 step walk each way to the restaurant from our room. Not for the mobility impaired. The vibe was very much corporate hotel, the kind that wants bang for its buck. The rooms were cheap and room service was sloppy (beds were messy after housekeeping left). Towels and robes were threadbare. Dinner service in the restaurant was slow, and the food, while not actually spoiled, was cold and had obviously been prepared well ahead of time and kept on a warmer for the order. The breakfast buffet had a cook preparing egg orders (that was a plus!) but the steam trays were cold and the scrambled eggs had more bounce than a rubber ball. The yogurt was delicious but the fruit was definitely not and the orange juice was out of a box. The spa? A 30-minute service was actually 15 minutes, there was only 1 shower in the women's side of the spa, but several near the pool. Economy was key, you push a button and water jets out for 30-60 seconds at a time. When your eyes are full of shampoo that was a minus. And kids. There were little boys running around the women's showers. Sorry, I expected consideration for adults at a spa. Never returning.

The whole experience was great from beginning to end

The staff, the rooms and the breakfast were amazing. The grounds and the buildings were exceptional. If I’m ever back in Donegal, I will definitely stay here again.

Helpful staff

The room is amazing!
