We were rather disappointed with this hotel having read good reviews here on Tripadvisor. You get a huge room, a great breakfast, a brand new shower, decent hairdryer (!), a wonderful Irish country mansion, lovely views and surroundings. The problem is the distinct lack of attention to detail, making this a middling B&B rather than the pleasant hotel we'd been... More

This place is so different to the Plastic Hotels that have sadly became the norm in Ireland over the past few decades. Knocklofty House is truly stunning, every corner of the place full of Unique Architectural Heritage. The Staff work ultra-hard to make your stay as relaxed as they can. Its as if you are in their home. If ur... More

This hotel is a beautiful old manor representative of a time long gone. It is a unique opportunity to stay in a place like this and wonder what it must have been like back in the day. It is very large and spacious. Our suite was very grand with high ceilings and a fireplace. The bathroom was equally grand with... More

I booked the main suite at this hotel as I was organising a re-union for staff of a company I worked for nearly 10 years ago. I booked the function room where the hotel provided the food & they have a lovely little bar to the back of the hotel. The service was amazing from the time I booked in... More

One really lives TWICE at Knocklofty. A dream of living in a gigantic estate comes true! The entire experience at this hotel is "personal not business." The staff is there for you...always--they remember your name! The food is gormet and simple(simply good!).The accomodations:GRAND,LUXURIUS, AFFORDABLE. The live music:cozy, friendly atmosphere--should have a bar menu for late snackers like me to compliment... More

I stayed here for a total of 19 nights over a four week period. For one weekend, I had my family stay with me too. I wanted a "non-Radisson type" hotel, because I was expecting to have a relatively long stay, something out in the countryside. I got exactly what I wanted. By the end of my stay, I had... More

Stayed here with a group of friends for a short holiday. We loved everything about this hotel. We have stayed here before and we will certainly stay again. We can recommend this wonderful property to all we meet - its a one/ off location. More
