Reviews of The Castle Arms Hotel
D. K.Old style county town vibe
But
First class service
Good menu, good food.
Very clean, tidy
And
Full compliance with COVID regs.
I'll be back - it was a pleasant surprise.
M. D.Good food, fantastically fast service. We ordered three Steaks, they were different and all cooked perfectly.The owner came over and had a chat with us a couple of times during the meal. Really enjoyed my visit.
m. D.Myself and my husband visited this Evening for a meal which was truly wonderful my husband had the duck and I had the steak we shared tempura prawns as a starter and for dessert we had profiteroles the food was perfect in every dish we had. Overall a great experience then on to O Murchus bar which has to be experienced a brilliant choice of cocktails to a background of eighties music ...check it out.. a great night out👍
M. K.Great staff went out of their way to accommodate us. Lovely food

o. c.We stopped off here today for a bite to eat, lovely Hotel when we went in very clean and the staff was very helpful, we sat in the outside seating, the food was delicious and hot and enjoyed it immensely, we had burger and chips which were very nice and himself had the garlic and lemon chicken with champ which he nearly locked the plate, very nice we will be back

T. H.We celebrated our sons christening here recently, the staff went out of their way to make our small group feel extra special. They managed to create a friendly and welcoming atmosphere while providing a safe envoirnment in these covid times. Wonderful experience, exceptional staff👌
M. P.Couldn't fault the hotel. Dining hall & food excellent. Very friendly staff in a lovely atmosphere. Very helpful when desperate for somewhere to stay, at short notice for a wedding. Would highly recommend the hotel. Will definitely use them again.
a. m.Castle Arms always has welcome attention to detail friendly and helpful staff
E. O.Fantastic venue and lovely helpful people.
P. D.We stayed here whilst attending a wedding a Durrow Castle across the road. The family room we booked was very spacious though the decor was dated. The bathroom was very spacious & more modern. There wad no lift to the second floor which would make wheelchair access or access with young kids (buggies etc) very difficult. The breakfast menu was good & the morning staff were very friendly & could not do enough to help & assist
E. H.Amazing experience. Beautiful country hotel. The general manager Joseph and his staff could not have made me more welcome. Sunday lunch was really good. Homemade veg soup with homemade brown bread. Roast beef and the trimmings. Just what the doctor ordered. And to top it all off there was a Sunday night ballroom dance. I went up to my room put my best red dress on and joined in with the dancers. Ireland at its best.
Thank you all so much for my lovely 24 hour experience. I’m coming back soon

M. T.We stayed in the Castle Arms for 4 nights and could not have been happier with the accommodation, and the kind and helpful staff as well. Joseph, the manger, perpetually went out of his way to ensure that our stay was more than pleasant and our day trips were well informed. We never missed a breakfast and were always greeted with a smile. When we return to Durrow we will be sure to stay there again.
