Clontarf Castle Hotel

Almost unbelievably, this Dublin hotel is just two miles from the city centre and five miles from the airport. It is almost unbelievable as once inside Clontarf Castle you could be anywhere, with its fairy-tale interior, turrets, tapestries and walls feet thick with history and magic. There are few hotels in Dublin which are so steeped in the past, although following a recent major refurbishment there are certainly all of the modern amenities you could possibly want. Set in its own grounds, this hotel is in Dublin and yet separate from it. Whether you want to enjoy the bustling and cosmopolitan city or stay away from it all in the castle grounds, you are assured of a warm welcome at the Clontarf Castle. Visitors who stay regularly in this Dublin hotel come for many different reasons, from business trips to city breaks or as a base for exploring. Staying at the Clontarf Castle gives them a dose of special Irish history without having to move a muscle.
