I have to say my over-all experience of Kilronan Castle was under-whelming. I don't know if I expected too much given the reputation. But my expectations were not met! First off having to walk through the restaurant where people eat to get to the elevators was quiet embarrassing and not a good start! We got to our room, it was fine. Nice furniture to enhance your feeling of being in a castle. The bed was very comfortable. But the shower was filthy with soap-scum and the large showerhead sprayed water onto the ceiling, which in-turn fell down on you in cold drips. Small things like no pen in the room, we asked for a shoe-shing kit at reception(which I nearly expect in a hotel room in 2023) and they didn't have any and wasn't offered any solution either! I was flabbergasted! Breakfast was fine, we were first down on our first morning, and even being there that early(7am) some of the breakfast items were cold and sausages a little pale for my liking. The dinner we had at the wedding that night - the vol-au-vent was lovely and so was the soup, but the mains were only OK, the beef was very tough. Given the prices that they charge, I think this is scandalous! Most staff were friendly - especially the man in reception when we checked in. But I certainly won't be hurrying back - such a pity as this was to be a treat for us after a bad year and it wasn't inexpensive.
