The Castle building is in need of cleaning, repairs and updates. It would be a lovely place if they updated the inside decor, cleaned the furniture, repaired lights and found a way to remove the musty smell. Staff was great and the food and service was great. The grounds were stunning and loved the walking trails around the area.
The staff are amazing. So very friendly and keen to make your stay enjoyable. The breakfast and dinner were delicious and served up with care and attention to detail. I would highly recommend this hidden gem!
If you like a modern hotel this is not the place for you. It is full of interesting old memorabilia and history. I have never come across such personable friendly staff. Fabulous meals in both the restaurant and the cafe.
Beautiful old castle and such a treat to stay in the original building with only a few rooms. Lovely wooded grounds for walks. Our room had a four poster bed which was the icing on the cake! The meal was second to none. I would highly recommend this authentic traditional hotel and will definitely be back, hopefully for longer next time.
A highlight for us was staying at Belleck Castle near Ballina, County Mayo. The stunning grounds/dense tree walks , the authentic rooms with a view; 4 poster beds and yet modern bathrooms. The food! Main restaurant was high class and Jack Fenn Cafe for a huge breakfast couldn't be faulted.
Do the amazing castle tour to see the fossil and armoury collections and hear about the Doran family history and how this private castle and its uniqueness came to be. The people who work there were all smiles. A gem of a spot. We stayed 3 days, not long enough. ❤️
I cannot rave enough about this property. Very reasonably priced for such a historic property. Hot showers. Beautiful grounds. Beautiful interior. The free breakfast was absolutely delicious! Not just your regular continental breakfast. It was a hot breakfast by order.
Very charming property, loved the rooms, staff was incredible…. Felt like a princess sleeping in a castle !
Would be great if they could include more activities, as there’s not that much to do except explore the woods and castle …. Though the castle tour was exceptional with all the medieval armory.
This stay was out of this world! They welcomed us so graciously. It was like spending time in the 1800’s. The hotel is a MUST SEE! A true gem. The details and original decor was unbelievable. The food was so good! The rooms were extremely comfortable. We will be back!

Magical Castle Stay
Our stay at Belleek was amazing. We spent one night here and it was so worth it. We even received a private tour of the amazing antiquities stored here. Our dinner in the evening was the best we had in Ireland. Our server went above and beyond excellent. I ordered the filet that was seared enflambe on an antique sword from the armory below! Our time in the bar for after dinner cocktails was equally well done. The bartender was amazing and the decor was a recovered Spanish galleon that had be added into the wall! This is a don't miss castle stay. My only feedback was cleanliness and some things need updated like worn linens and pillows in the bedroom. A good thorough Spring clean would do it right!
Driving into the castle, the grounds were neatly kept. The cost to stay in Belleek is reasonable. Check-in was easy; they offered a porter to deliver our luggage. The room was decorated so quaintly. The bed was comfortable, the room and bathroom was very clean. They offered toiletries. There was no fan in the room, but we packed one, just in case. The sitting room was a great place to meet other guests. The bar room looked so unique; like a pirate’s bar on a ship. They offered dinner, for an additional costs, though we didn’t eat there. Free breakfast was offered in my package. Hubby and I shared the French Toast each day. On the downside, Our room was over the nightlife, music, drinks and socializing. The music was loud, though not obnoxious. After the music died down, people continued to socialize ; which had loud talkers. There are also beautiful paths, greenways, and hidden gems in the forest beside the castle.

Disappointing
Disappointing. Nonexistent welcome to hotel. Ignored with eventual slow checkin. Ni help with bags up the stairs with multiple young male staff members watching us. Food disappointing in The Library. Risotto terrible - very dry with no flavor. Ratatouille - mushroom dish not good - tasted like made with a bottle of spicy barbecue sauce / could eat it. The highlight was the lady giving castle tour.
