Hillgrove Hotel Leisure & Spa

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Dean for our wedding, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the first consultation to the big day, Dean was professional, attentive, and incredibly organised. He took the time to understand our vision and went above and beyond to make it come to life. Every detail was carefully planned, and we were able to fully enjoy the day without any stress, knowing everything was in great hands. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a seamless wedding experience!

Our wedding at the Hillgrove was everything we dreamed of and more! The staff were attentive and ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish. We received so many compliments about the venue and the food. We are so grateful for the incredible service and atmosphere they provided. Highly recommend the Hillgrove for any couple looking to create a stress free, magical wedding day!

Dean and all the staff in the Hillgrove are the best in the business. They made everything so easy that I would get married here every day.
Dean is a superstar at what he does. When I first looked at the hotel with my mum as a potential venue for our wedding, Dean said, all you need to do is dress yourselves and organise the hen and stags and that’s exactly all we had to do, Dean had everything else covered.
In the lead up to the wedding, all the vendors were in touch with me and I had everyone’s numbers and there was no stress whatsoever with any of the vendors. If I had a question, Dean would answer it straight away.
Breda looked after all the rooms and had everyone sorted for everything and because our wedding was a week after a big storm anyone travelling from Galway with no power could check into the hotel early and get ready there before our ceremony. There was no extra for this and not was something that they didn’t have to do but they did it for us and for our guests.
The evening before the wedding, we left everything down with Dean who looked after all and who made us feel so welcoming and to all our guests who arrived the day before.
On the day of the wedding itself, the amount of compliments we got about how lovely the staff were, how professional everything was and how good it was all ran. The food was exceptional and we even had the fussy aunts compliment us on the food. Dean oversaw all of this with Liz who really were two friends to Noel and I by the end of the night.
The drinks reception ran smoothly into the dinner reception, into the speeches and into the band and DJ. It really was the best day of our lives and Dean made that happen for us so seamlessly. I even asked Dean for something off menu as my starter about an hour before dinner and that was no problem!
Honestly, if someone is thinking of the Hillgrove for their wedding, you won’t get any better. People are still complimenting us on such a good wedding and how well ran it was. Dean, Breda and Liz are a credit to the Hillgrove and are part of the reason it is so well organised.

Dean and the Hillgrove were amazing in taking the stress of our big day away. They organised our day perfectly and we had an amazing day, as did all our guests!

We had the most amazing day! Weddings can provide alot of nerves and stress however when working with Deane all that seemed to disappear. He made sure everything was covered and also was able to give us loads of other food for thought and his thinking skills outside the box were second to none. He made the day go so well and we cannot thank him enough. From our first day viewing the venue, we left instantly knowing this was the one..The reason being..Deane! I honestly couldnt believe how organised this man was and anyone i have spoken to about the wedding, i have always mentioned how simple Deane made everything. A total pleasure!

Dean was an absolute pleasure to deal with from the day we booked our wedding right up until the end of our wedding. He was professional, helpful and went above and beyond to make our day perfect. Our wedding experience was so easy and relaxed all thanks to Dean, nothing was too much trouble. Absolutely delighted we chose the hillgrove for our wedding we just wish we could do it all over again.

We booked our venue back in 2021, and from the very beginning, Dean made our wedding planning journey stress-free and unforgettable. Whether it was replying to our WhatsApp messages, emails, or phone calls, Dean was like our personal assistant, always quick to offer support and guidance. He provided creative ideas to make our wedding unique and special for our guests.

We did experience some family drama during the planning process, which had us feeling overwhelmed and losing sight of the joy of wedding planning. Dean reassured us by explaining that many couples face similar challenges with family dynamics, which really helped put us at ease and reminded us that we weren’t alone in navigating those tricky situations.

Dean took care of everything for us—organizing our photographer, florist, wedding cake, and DJ—so we literally had nothing to worry about. The hotel provided so much decor that all we had to do was focus on getting dressed and organizing our register, which Dean had thoughtfully recommended.

A highlight for us was our menu tasting a few months before the wedding. Dean was kind enough to allow us to bring our parents along, as we’re both only children and wanted them to be as involved as possible during the planning.

Our wedding was during Storm Darragh. We had rented an Airbnb to get ready in the morning since we’re from Dublin and didn’t want the stress of traveling on the wedding day. However, we woke up to find that there was no water or power. Panic set in, and we called Dean at 7:30 a.m. He immediately reassured us not to worry and promised he’d be at the hotel in 20 minutes to get everything sorted. By 8:00 a.m., he had already found us a room at the Hillgrove where we could shower and get ready. He was there to help us move our things and get settled in, making sure we were comfortable.

Dean even arranged for breakfast at 9:00 a.m. so we wouldn’t go hungry. By 10:00 a.m., we realized we hadn’t contacted our suppliers to let them know we’d moved to the hotel. Once again, I started to panic—but Dean had already taken care of everything. He’d called the photographer, videographer, and florist to make sure they knew where we were, so we didn’t need to worry about a thing.

On the day of the wedding, every single one of our guests was blown away by how beautiful the hotel was, especially the food and the service.

Dean’s professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. His extensive experience in wedding planning is evident in how he anticipates needs and takes care of things before you even realize they need to be done. He helped me think of things I hadn’t even considered, and it was clear that he genuinely loves his job—and he’s fantastic at it.

He even handled last-minute table changes with such ease, never making it an issue and reassuring me that it was no problem at all. I truly believe our wedding day was perfect because of Dean and his incredible team.

We’re so grateful for everything he did to make our day unforgettable. If you want a wedding experience where everything runs smoothly, with no stress and plenty of thoughtful support, Dean is the one you want by your side.

Myself and my new husband Pearse wanted to say a HUGE thank you to the Hillgrove hotel! From start to finish the wedding went so smoothly, the food was amazing everyone complimented it and the service exceptional!

A very special shout out to our wedding co-ordinator Dean who helped us tremendously on the lead up to the wedding and on the day, nothing was ever too much trouble. He answered all queries so fast and put our minds at ease with how professional he was! I cannot express how wonderful the Hillgrove was and if you are considering here for your wedding you will not be disappointed!

If you are considering the Hillgrove as your wedding venue ... Book it!

They are nothing short of amazing and when I say they go above and beyond, I mean NOTHING is a problem. Their attention to detail and hospitality is exceptional. The team work extremely hard to make your day perfect and I really have a sadness that our interactions are complete, we really feel they are friends at this point.

The packages are extensive, suiting all budgets and they are happy to adjust things to suit.

The food was wow! Our guests loved it all, especially the Vol-au-vent!

The bar staff are friendly and fun and enjoyed interacting with the guests, always smiling and seemed to enjoy themselves just as much as our guests.

The reception room is stunning! I fell in love instantly and they give you lots of options and extras that you would normally have to outsource such as candy cart etc.

The team are the highlight for me a massive thank you to Dean the wedding coordinator and Liz both catered to our every need. And also Evelyn who tended the top table all day. Exceptional!

We got married in The Hillgrove Hotel Monaghan One Month ago now.
We would highly recommend this hotel for your wedding venue.
From the first day we met with Dean we know this was the venue for us.Dean was so professional and supportive he give a few different packages to choose from and a list of supplies witch was a big help and all we had to do was pick the supplies we wanted and Dean handled the rest.
On the day of our wedding Dean and the staff at the Hillgrove couldn’t do enough for us the food and service was top class.
The bridal suite was beautiful and the champagne breakfast in bed the morning after was amazing. We can honestly say we don't think we would have enjoyed the wedding planning half as much if we didn't have Dean as our wedding coordinator. He made the whole process easy, fun and enjoyable. He is an absolute joy to work with.There was nothing too big or too small for him if we asked he done it for us. We cannot thank Dean and the staff at The Hillgrove enough for all you have done for us to make our day the best day of our lives.
Leanne&Gavin

From the day we met Dean we knew we were in safe hands. He was so helpful with the planning process and eased all our stresses and concerns instantly. Always on hand to answer our questions, and point us in the right direction. On the day itself he was such a calming presence and we knew everything was in safe hands and we were free to enjoy our day.
The Hillgrove is an amazing wedding venue. Our guests are still raving about the delicious meal and excellent service. Everything went absolutely perfectly and we couldn't have asked for any more from Dean and the wonderful staff at the Hillgrove hotel who went above and beyond to make our day so so special. I would recommend the Hillgrove to any newly engaged couples.

I don’t know where to begin.

November 2022, 1st venue we went to see. We arranged to meet Dean for a wedding show around and a chat. Afterwards we went into the bar for some lunch before our drive back to Dublin. I sat in the seat for no longer than 2 mins, and was straight back up and out to find Dean to pay our deposit to secure our date.
From the moment we arrived at the hotel, we were welcomed with a great feeling. Dean himself is by far one of the nicest people we have ever met.
The whole 2 years of planning was so straight forward as Dean was able to assist with everything. Any question, response same day, any issue resolved within the day.

Our day itself was more than what we could’ve imagined. It ran absolutely smoothly. The staff were absolutely amazing and a special shout out to Liz, when Dean was finished for the day she stepped in!

We celebrated from the Thursday - Sunday, and family and friends are still saying the food the whole weekend was absolutely unbelievable.

If I could go back and do it all again I would.

If you are thinking of booking here DO IT, you will not have one single regret!

Mr & Mrs Thornton 18/10/24🤍

The Hillgrove hotel was an excellent venue for our wedding, couldn’t have been better, went off without an hitch. Our guests had complimented the food being the best they’d had at a wedding. The responsiveness of the staff for ensuring all our guests had rooms prior to the wedding was a great help. Dean our wedding co-ordinator ran it all and was brilliant, there wasn’t a detail he didnt overlook and had everything covered from the off. He was a big reason for us selecting Hillgrove as a venue, and he didn’t disappoint. Would highly recommend, 5 star service and a great price for a brilliant venue.

From our first meeting with Dean at the Hillgrove we were sold on having our wedding there. He was so warm, professional and extemely helpful and made our entire journey completely stress free! He answered texts at all hours due to arranging our wedding from overseas and nothing was ever too much trouble! Dean truely goes above and beyond for his couples and it really shows, The service was beyond exceptional, the pre reception was more than I ever imagined and the main reception was just spectacular!! I honestly cannot fault anything about our special Day with Dean and The Hillgrove..I would do it all over again and wouldnt change anything about it. Kudos to Dean he is absolutely exceptional at what he does and I am sure he will continue to delight many more couples now and into the future!

My husband and I got married in the hillgrove hotel on the 13th of September and we had the best day and night, dean and Liz go above and beyond to make sure all your needs are met and I couldn't fault one thing, thank you to help giving us the best day that we will never forget. The hotel is beautiful and for sure we will be back as it holds special memories to us now.

Our wedding day was perfect from start to finish because of the attentiveness of all staff and attention to detail from our wedding Co-ordinator Dean. We were completely stress free from booking our wedding right until the actual day, the staff took care of everything and even recommended and added a little extra to make it even more special for our guests. My guests are still talking about the amazing food and spectacular service! Would highly recommend for a worry free and perfect day. 😊

We had our wedding reception in the Hillgrove Hotel in Monaghan. The Hillgrove was the first hotel we viewed, the feeling we got and the information from Dean that day was first class, we soon realised as we viewed others, nowhere else came close.

During the months of planning, and the lead up to the wedding our wedding coordinator; Dean Coyne was amazing! Anything we asked for was not a bother, and all my emails/questions however big or small were answered quickly and clearly which is a delight to the organised bride to be that I was.

On the day of our wedding, the ballroom and entrance were set up perfectly, all our wee personal touches were carefully set up by the team and the food on arrival was highly praised by our guests. The dinner itself was absolutely amazing, the portions were huge and the taste was amazing!

On the day Dean, Liz and Kaylon run the whole day without a hitch, we were impressed with the level of communication of and importantly made sure we were happy with everything along the way, which
may I add we were!

I can safely say that all the guests had an
amazing day and highly commented on the
fabulous selection and quality of the food, great
service from the staff. I especially the great care and
attention given by staff to disabled guests, offering an extra hand without hesitation.

We would highly recommend the Hillgrove Hotel for wedding, they have a range of packages and the room décor itself is beautiful. The staff truly made myself and my husband feel special and valued from day one right up till the days after our wedding,

As soon as we met Dean and his team at the HillGrove we were sold that this was the venue we wished to celebrate our day at. Deans support and guidance is second to none, he goes out of his way to make sure you have the best day of your lives, stress free. It is a lovely feeling to land to your wedding reception and have it sitting even better than initially imagined. For anybody newly married, I would 100% recommend speaking to Dean. We can’t thank him enough.

Unreal at there Job. Can’t do enough for you to make your special day go smoothly. Would definitely recommend if you don’t want any stress lol

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Dean as our wedding coordinator, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very first interaction, Dean was incredibly responsive—always quick to answer any questions, no matter how big or small. His approachability and friendliness made the entire planning process so much smoother, and we felt comfortable reaching out to him at any time.

Dean offered fantastic advice throughout, guiding us with his expert knowledge of weddings and ensuring every detail was perfect. Whether it was vendor recommendations, timeline suggestions, or creative ideas to make our day special, he truly went above and beyond. His calm and professional demeanor allowed us to fully trust him, knowing our wedding was in great hands.

Thanks to Dean, we had the stress-free, beautiful day we always dreamed of! Every one of our immediate family mentioned how attentive he was to, not just myself and my partner, but everyone at the top table and our guests. Highly recommending the Hillgrove to couples and Dean is definitely a huge reason for this.

From our first hello to our wedding day, we cannot even describe the professionalism and dedication shown to us from Dean and all of the staff at the Hillgrove Hotel.

Dean was always there to help and guide us through the whole process.

Our wedding day was the best day of our lives and it is a credit to Dean for making it happen!

Mark & Martin Kelly

When we met with Dean and he showed us around the Hillgrove we knew that we had found our venue.
Dean could answer all of our questions, and when we explained that we had a child with ASD he put us at ease about having our wedding in the Hillgrove.
A lovely little touch was the pre wedding tasting. The dining room was set up like a mini wedding for us and the other couples. We got to sample the meals we chose for our wedding. It was a great evening.
Our wedding day was perfect. Dean reassured us that he would be with us every step of the way. The ceremony room, reception area and ballroom were all decorated beautifully. The decor, candy cart, crisp wall were all provided by the Hillgrove. All our guests were blown away by the food, they still talk about how good their meal was. Many of our guests stayed in the hotel and were also very impressed by the food in the bar.
We availed of the sensory room the night before the wedding. It is fantastic! All our children loved it. We would highly recommend it for any couples who have children. The Hillgrove host so many weddings every week but Dean and his team were still able to make us feel special. A big thank you to Liz who was very friendly and was our point of contact when Dean was getting married himself.

Dean our wedding coordinator was absolutely amazing from start to finish. I had to email to see if I could bring certain things for children certain foods to be cooked etc, no problem. And was very responsive. We had such an amazing day at the Hillgrove for our wedding day. The food was amazing. Would highly recommend the Hillgrove of Monaghan for your special day.

We recently held our wedding at The Hillgrove, and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. From start to finish, the service we received was nothing short of exceptional, making our special day truly unforgettable.

One of the highlights of our experience was working with Dean, our wedding coordinator. Dean went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of, making the planning process smooth and stress-free. His attention to detail, responsiveness, and genuine care for our vision made all the difference. Dean was always available to answer our questions and provided excellent suggestions that perfectly suited our style and preferences.

On the day of the wedding, everything was flawlessly executed. The venue was beautifully set up, just as we had envisioned. The staff was incredibly attentive and professional, ensuring that our guests were comfortable and that the event ran seamlessly.

Our guests haven’t stopped raving about how beautiful everything was and how well they were taken care of by the staff.

We are so grateful to Dean and the entire team for making it such an amazing and memorable day. If you’re looking for a venue with excellent service and a team that truly cares about making your day special, we highly recommend The Hillgrove!!

Thank you for making our wedding day everything we hoped for and more!

Orlagh and Conall

We had our wedding on the 10th of July at the hillgrove hotel what an amazing day it was nothing was a problem to the amazing staff. Special mention to Liz and dean couldn't have done it without use. 10/10 for everything we could not have wished for a better day 🫶

I could not recommend the hillgrove enough for a wedding! From the very first day we met with Dean we knew we were in good hands. He could not of done enough for us and anything we asked for or needed he was able to do, nothing was ever a bother. Every little detail was done to absolute perfect. We cannot thank Dean and his team for making our day so special🤍

Dean Coyne of the Hillgrove hotel provided excellent support and guidance in helping us plan our wedding reception. The hotel provided an excellent service in catering requests and food quality with which our guests were truly delighted.

Honestly I couldn’t recommend the hillgrove enough!
From we walked through those doors too view the hotel we knew it was our dream place to bring all our friends and family to celebrate our marriage! We had our whole day including the ceremony which was an absolute dream, the team to work with from start to finish was amazing. The day wouldn’t have been the day we dreamed of without Dean and his crew.

We cannot fault the Hillgrove Hotel at all. We were originally aiming for a country house type wedding venue but we called by the Hillgrove hotel out of curiosity on the way to another viewing as we had a little time to spare. We walked out of our meeting with Dean knowing it was the one. From the moment we saw the rooms made up and had a conversation with Dean, we knew this was the one and that our wedding would be in the best hands.

The amount of decor that comes included as standard blew us and all our guests away. The single piece of decor I needed to add was a small arrangement for the signing the register table as I wanted a memory candle ritual as part of our ceremony. Everything else came provided and was so beautifully presented on the day. We had an incredible amount of compliments on the banquet and drinks reception rooms, but especially the ceremony room. It was stunning.

We also never came across another venue that was such good value for money! We were so pleasantly surprised at the cost of the meal and ceremony and what we got with the package compared to every other venue we visited.

And then came along Dean, who made the whole decision a no-brainer for us. Dean and his team were incredible in every possible way. No task was too big or too last minute for them to handle easily & professionally. Before we even left our initial meeting to just scope out the venue, Dean provided us with a checklist of information to ensure we ask other venues while wedding planning to make sure nothing would get missed during our special day. He told us that no matter who we went with for a venue, to make sure they answered all the questions and that we were satisfied with their answers. For us, this showed us that he was not just trying to sell his venue to us, but that he cared more about making sure our day would be perfect, no matter where we got married. We knew immediately our wedding would be in safe hands.

The entire day went so flawlessly. Our guests were full of nothing but compliments for the whole team. They made everyone feel so welcomed and had everything running like clockwork. We even had compliments on efficiently and professionally the meal was served and how organised the teams were in change overs from dinner to evening.

I cannot recommend the Hillgrove Hotel enough to anyone planning a wedding.

We had our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel on the 3rd May and what amazing day we had with family and friends, we couldn’t fault one thing, Dean was absolutely amazing from the day we booked our wedding nothing was a trouble and always responded so fast to any queries we had, he goes above and beyond and we could never thank him enough. The food was absolutely amazing all our guests are still talking about how good it was, the staff at the hotel couldn’t do enough for us on the day and the following day, everyone was so nice! The hotel itself is beautiful everything is so clean and homely we love the hotel. Definitely 10* from us!

We recently had our wedding at the Hillgrove Hotel Monaghan! At first glance on the wedding open day we fell in love with this venue! It was so inviting and everything we wanted! Above all the wedding co-ordinator Dean made our minds up straight away nothing was too much! He was amazing throughout the whole planning process and made everything stress free for us!
We knew our wedding was in good hands!
Thank you for everything and for helping make our wedding day such a memorable day!

Dean was an amazing co ordinator, he was so helpful & we appreciate everything he done as the day went so smoothly. Dean went above & beyond for us. Could not fault Dean & his team.

We are truthfully struggling to find the words to best reflect our experience of having our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel. I suppose 3 things made our decision for us ie the location ( we were clear that we wanted to accommodate the majority of our guests) with me coming from Ballygawley & my Fiancé coming from Armagh. The second thing was the amazing reception room, I was totally blown away by it. Lastly, Dean, the wedding coordinator, who is absolutely fantastic. We both knew we were in good hands when we met Dean & how right we were. From the moment we confirmed our date Dean became our go to man. The level of communication was second to none. Dean guided us through every step & made the whole process run so smoothly. I sent him numerous emails, with queries that had popped into my head & nothing was a problem to him. I recall arriving to our menu tasting night quite stressed, due to a situation that had developed. Dean’s words to us that evening were “ We don’t do stress, let me sort that”, within a few minutes he had us both at ease. He has no idea how much that meant to us. In the few weeks prior to our wedding the emails from Dean were more frequent & he arranged a final meeting to finalise our details. He thinks of every little detail & the final result was our fabulous wedding day. We had such a very special day, the memories of which we will cherish forever. The pre reception set up, the food - which was exceptional, the accommodation, the bridal suite, the fantastic team of staff who worked tirelessly & the overall cleanliness, we cannot fault any of it. The feedback from our guests, which we are still receiving, is testimony to the how our wedding at the Hillgrove was received. As a more mature couple, with the majority of our guests being over 50, we were keen to ensure that our wedding was tasteful & memorable to both ourselves & our guests. The Hillgrove, Dean, Liz & their team absolutely nailed it for us. If anyone reading this review is planning their wedding, we would very strongly recommend that you arrange to see the Hillgrove. They will help you have the most amazing day of your life.

We had an absolutely amazing day, it was just perfect for us from start to finish. The attention to detail and feeling like royalty for the day. Dean was just brilliant at his job from the early days responding to texts or emails, rearranging tasting menus etc. The package deal is just great with all the best suppliers to choose from when planning your big day. Very little you have to do because it's all done for you so takes the stress away. I highly recommend choosing Hillgrove Monaghan if you want good value for money, the best wedding coordinator who is with you every step of the way, a stunning set up. If I could do it all again I would change nothing because it was just perfect.

The Hillgrove stood out to us as our wedding venue from the get go, Dean in particular! His relaxed yet professional attitude would immediately put anyone at ease. He was always available to answer any queries, big or small, day or night. The level of experience was clear from the first meet, we arrived to have a look around and left with our wedding booked. Dean wasn’t like most wedding co-ordinators whose main aim is to “upsell upsell upsell”, and we loved this about him. He wanted us to enjoy our day and do things our way, and that’s exactly what he did. Dean took care of the details and had everything sorted for us, making life very easy! There wasn’t a single day of stress during the whole planning process and that was down to the hillgrove and their amazing team. We can’t thank them about for giving us and our guests the most amazing day.

Best day of our lives. Thanks so much to the Hillgrove Hotel and the professionalism of all staff that helped on the day, making sure our special day would be the best day ever.
Our wedding coordinator Dean, for being a hero over the past 2 years of planning, ensuring that everything we requested would be done to a tee without us having to stress or worry about a thing. Nothing was an issue and he really went above and beyond for us, making us the happiest newly married couple ever ☺️also a shout out to to Liz and Caolan for being brilliant at their job on the day too. To chef Paul and his team in the kitchen, the food.. waooow, unbelievable.. I've never had food like it and this is the comment all guests were saying afterwards too. The guests are still talking about how brilliant the food was. We will never forget the amazing memories of all the brilliant services we received from the Hillgrove Hotel. Everyone said to me your the calmest bride I've ever seen, all of the above is the reason why.
The next morning we were heading down for breakfast, there the breakfast table was with a bottle of champagne in the middle of it outside our door, for us to continue the celebrations. Best feeling ever wakening up and knowing how brilliant the day went. We will forever be grateful to you. We had the best day ever. If we had to do it all again, we wouldn't change a thing. Keep up the great work everyone. We cannot wait to visit again ❤️

Very professional service from the Hillgrove hotel and spa Monaghan food was amazing would highly recommend this hotel and the staff to others dean is amazing at his job and he knows how to take the stress out of the planning

Dean is the reason we decided to have our wedding in the Hillgrove. I’m from Monaghan so was always aware they served good food but from our first meeting with Dean, I knew it was the place for us. His no nonsense, flexible and humorous approach made the planning process so easy for us. When we had issues with our chosen cake maker, he went out on a limb to get a resolution for us. He made us laugh and at ease the day of our wedding and the morning after. Dean, you are unreal at what you do, the offering you’ve created along with the team who hosted us. We’ve received so many compliments of how good our reception was from the staff being such good craic to the abundance of food offered. We’re delighted we had our wedding in the Hillgrove and got to experience your magic!

I couldn't have asked for a better team to look after our wedding. Anything that was asked by ourselves was no issue to the team at the Hillgrove.
Lovely food and lovely staff.

The hillgrove were so accommodating for our wedding day and pulled out all the stops. Our previous wedding venue had to cancel and Dean was fantastic in rearranging venues and functions to help us celebrate our day in the hillgrove. All the staff were so friendly and helpful on the day.
Dean arranged all for our wedding day after one meeting and it was fantastic, from the reception when we got in with so much choice of drinks and nibbles and everyone commented how lovely it was presented and tasted. Our dinner was superb too and everyone had a really good day. Thank you so much to Dean and all the staff at the hillgrove hotel. I would definitely recomme d the Hillgrove to future wedding couples. 5* from us.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Dean, Liz and team in the Hillgrove Hotel for giving us the perfect wedding day. From the first time we met Dean till the countless emails and me requesting to meet with him. Nothing was any bother Dean was always there to answer us. The lead up to the wedding and the day itself was so relaxed. We didn't have to worry about a thing, Dean had it covered!! Thanks so much guys. Mr & Mrs Maguire

Dean has been exceptional from start to finish. Dean has been nothing but approachable and patient from the very first time we contacted Dean right down to the very last detail. Dean couldn't have possibly done any more for us. Our day was magical and that was all down to Dean. Dean give us direction and guidance when needed and was so attentive to every thing we wanted. The hillgrove hotel staff are so fabulous everyone is so approachable and friendly and it says a lot. My guests all commented how that every single member of staff had a big smile on their face and were so friendly! Dean is so amazing at his job. I would recommend the hillgrove to anyone fabulous staff fabulous venue!

Our wedding was more than anything we expected. From start to finish Dean and the Hillgrove went above and beyond expectations. From the reception of the wedding and the drinks at entry, to the food and Organisation made our day even more special. Can't thank Dean and the Hillgrove enough. Dean took all the Organisation out of it for us and meant we could sit back and enjoy the day with little stress. his organisation leading up to the wedding took all the stress away also. Would recommend it to anyone as a venue!

The Hillgrove Hotel is an amazing wedding venue. We had the best day ever! The food was amazing as was the service. Dean was fabulous to deal with and made all our dreams become a reality!

The services that I received at the Hillgrove make this the easiest review I have ever written.

The Hillgrove was the 3rd place I went to see as a possible wedding venue. But the minute I met with Dean I just knew that it was going to be the place I was getting married. From the very first email to set up an appointment to look at the venue I received top class service. I had an appointment made for the following week. During the appointment Dean took great time to explain to us at length what the Hillgrove had to offer and also listened to us and answered all our questions. We were shown the Ballroom and drinks reception area all set up and the various different choices that we had in both areas. There was absolutely no pressure put on us at any time to book, in fact we were given a list of questions to ask all venues we look at to ensure we don't forget anything, to me this felt like a case of Dean saying " If you chooses us great, but if you don't I want to ensure you still get the best day" That spoke volumes.

After booking The Hillgrove for the wedding reception communication remained 100% at all times. I was in contact and met with Dean on a couple of occasions where i was able to discuss what i wanted to personalise about the day including table settings and centre pieces. Dean took time with me to set up the centre pieces in various ways incorporating both their items and my own until I find the combination that I wanted. He went above any beyond what I expected. Dean took time to talk me through my wedding and offer me suggestions or give me ideas when I was unsure. He advised me ways to do things that were financially better.

The food tasting night was just amazing - it was set up like a little wedding and was just so beautifully done. The food we had chosen to taste was served and we got to try some of the other options when we were not fully decided what we wanted. It was ensured that we were completely happy with the menu choices we had made before we left the hotel on tasting night.

In relation to room bookings, Breda was fantastic and in contact and was also able to answer questions and solve some of the room issues for us that came up due to people not booking, she worked wonders.

My wedding day was the best day ever from the moment I arrived. Dean arranged for me to be allowed drive into the hotel Foyer even though it wasn't raining as i wanted to get a picture. We were met with champagne and brought to see the room all set up prior to our guests. It was even better that was expected and left me very emotional. Dean and his crew had gone above and beyond. Dean checked in to see that everything was as we wanted and was willing if necessary to do anything needed, but everything was perfect.

The service provided from the moment I arrived was second to none. Everything went just perfectly. The food was absolutely amazing and everyone was and still is talking about how fabulous the food was. The servers both at the top table and the other tables were fabulous young people that were extremely polite and smiling and very helpful.

Liz who looked after us for the evening was constantly checking in to make sure we were ok and everyone was ok. She was extremely helpful and cheerful and just a pleasure to have around us.

My wedding was the easiest thing I have ever organised and was very stress free,

I would more that recommend the Hillgrove for a wedding venue, I would go as far as to encourage people to go check it out because you will be blown away with the service you receive.

Again, I want to mention Dean, He is second to none as a co-ordinator. He is fantastic at what he does and he does it all with such professionalism. His experience in wedding planning is evident in how his thought process in the organising of my wedding was ahead of mine and he helped me think of things i hadn't. It is obvious that he loves his job and he is fantastic at it. He dealt with my last minute table changes and never made an issue of it, in fact re-assured me it wasn't an issue. I 100% believe it was the day it was because of him and his team.

We stayed an extra night in the Hillgrove and it was organised that we could stay in the Bridal suite and not have to change. Dean checked in with us the day after the wedding to see how it all went and again on the morning we were checking out. I could not ask for anything better. I have absolutely no changes I would make to my day.

Thank you to Dean, his team and all the staff at the Hillgrove Hotel for making the day of our wedding the best day of our lives.

We had our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel Monaghan in September this year and honestly we cannot say enough good things about them as a wedding venue. Dean is fantastic to deal with, efficient and attentive, always there to answer your queries. Their wedding packages are extremely good value, without compromise on quality. The food is without doubt the selling point. It was really important to us that we gave our guests a good day out and the meal was top of our priority list. Dean guaranteed us that the food would be top quality and plentiful, and i can honestly say we were not disappointed! It was the talking point for many of our guests, and even now 2 months later we are still getting comments on how amazing the food was! Our ceremony room was beautifully decorated, again guests have commented on this and the amount of choice at the drinks reception was better than anything I had seen on any of the other venues we looked at. Again both of these were commented on by our guests also.
Dean gets regular mention as being a fantastic wedding co-ordinator and how great he is to deal with, and rightly so, however all the staff that we dealt with throughout the course of our day were brilliant. On my arrival to the hotel on a very wet September afternoon with a large bridal procession of 4 flowergirls and 4 pageboys the staff that met us really took over and organised the children in the order i wanted and looked after them perfectly which meant we had the perfect walk up the aisle. At the meal Liz looked after us and made sure everything went as it should, the waiting staff made sure everyone was served quickly and all tables were served seconds without waiting or having to ask for anything. The bar staff again were quick and efficient throughout the day and we had a good drinking crowd!
Once again thank you to Dean and the entire team at the Hillgrove Hotel for our fabulous wedding day. I would have zero doubt about recommending this hotel to anyone considering getting married. I promise you will not be left disappointed

Hillgrove Hotel Monaghan aka Dean was just brilliant , he was so easy to work with , very professional everything went so smoothly on the day and even the lead up to it. Would highly recommend Dean and the Hillgrove to anyone who asks.

We couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue for our big day in September. The wedding coordinator Dean and his team, Liz in particular, were amazing to deal with - they left no stone unturned in making sure our day was as special as it could be. Liz had everything taken care of and organised the day before our wedding which left us with a great sense of relief. Our day itself was everything we had wished for and it couldn't have went any better, even the wet miserable day didn't dampen our spirits!. Food was perfect, staff were helpful & friendly and all of our family and friends came away from the weekend saying it was a fantastic day. Thanks again to Dean & his team, we can't fault anything. Helen & S?amus :)

We had the best day possible! Nothing was a problem for Dean and Liz was so attentive also!
The whole weekend went down a treat as we stayed the 2nd day also.
Highly recommend the Hillgrove, the food was amazing and the staff were excellent.
Thank you all for making our wedding so perfect, Rachel & Shaun

Dean was a lovely wedding coordinator. He was very attentive to making our day the best it could have been. I would highly recommend the Hillgrove Hotel for your wedding as the hotel has done everything it could to make it an unforgettable experience for both ourselves and our guests.

Where do we even begin with Dean and everyone in the Hillgrove Hotel - when we got engaged we were told to look at the Hillgrove by 4 different couples - so we decided to make an appointment with the Hillgrove - within the first 30 minutes of meeting with Dean we knew we would be in great hands the whole way through. Dean was full of knowledge and advice to help us plan the perfect day. The menu tasting was out of this world and knew our guests wouldn't go hungry. The week of the wedding Dean relaxed us so much by having everything looked after so much so all we had to do was turn up. Our wedding day arrived, in the morning we were both a bag of nerves but we relaxed the minute we arrived to the Hillgrove and seen Dean & his team at the red carpet. The drinks reception was fab and catered for everyone even non-alcoholic options for guests who didn't drink. The dinner was perfect up until Main courses when my auntie took a turn at the end of the meal - Dean, Liz, Grace & Michael were there to assist my aunt within seconds. Unfortunately my auntie didn't survive the turn. Our wedding didn't continue after main courses but the love, care and support we received from the Hillgrove was out of this world and even as of last week Dean sent an email to check in on us all. Andrew the general manager and Erin even turned up as a mark of respect to her funeral with flowers. The Hillgrove team offered us a 2 night stay in their sister property in Kerry as a little getaway for us when we were ready after the funeral. This hotel went beyond their duties to show their help and support for every member of our family and we will be forever grateful to them. Thank you so much for Dean, Liz, Grace, Michael, Chris, Andrew and each and everyone of your staff members.

Thank you so so much for the most amazing wedding day on 24/8/23! I could not fault anything the whole day! You had the place looking amazing you kept everything a float and your staff on the day were really helpful also! You just made everything so easy and nothing was ever too much trouble! Never change dean theres not much people around like you!

Food was top class also everyone still
Commenting how much food they got and and all round great day/stay they had

We wish there was more than 5 stars to give to Dean and the staff at the Hillgrove. From booking our wedding Dean has been amazing in helping, solving and providing everything we needed for our big day. We honestly can not recommend the Hillgrove enough for a wedding because everything is done to the highest quality.

Dean helped us plan our special day, unfortunately he wasn't able to be there on the day but Liz & Sorca stepped in and they both made sure everything went smoothly. They went above and beyond. The food was delicious & we couldn't recommend The Hillgrove enough! Thanks for making our day so special!

We got married on the 4th of August 2023 after pushing out our wedding out by a year! Dean was absolutely brilliant from the word go! He never stressed and made everything seem possible! There was absolutely no hassle with anything and he was such a great help to us. His ideas and creative mind made our reception even more special with his added touches of Prosecco wall and flutes of cocktails etc. We couldn't have asked for more on the run up to our wedding and the wedding day went perfect with no glitches at all thanks to Dean and all the staff at the Hillgrove.

A top quality wedding venue. Dean was brilliant and made planning the wedding a joy. Nothing was a hassle for them. All our guests commented on their professionalism, the quality of the drinks reception and of the meal itself. We couldn't recommend the Hillgrove enough.

Me& my husband had a amazing day,couldn't fault anything from the hotel& there absolute brilliant staff!the food was fab&only complaint the guest couldn't eat anymore lol,thanks so much to Dean couldn't of did enough for us!thank you the Hillgrove Hotel

The food was absolutely delicious everyone enjoyed the meal!!

Naom? & Kieran McAlinden

The BEST!! We couldn't recommend the Hillgrove enough as a wedding venue! Dean was absolutely brilliant from the first day we met, he couldn't do enough to help and made planning our big day a joy and stress-free experience. Not only are the staff lovely and professional the quality of the food and drinks reception was amazing, everything was simply perfect!

We got married recently in june 2023, i would very highly recommend the Hillgrove to any wedding couple. We booked it in april 2022 and from then on they were just amazing with everything, any request or question we had was no trouble at all and everything was accomidated and no bother at all. The hotel was also very good value for money as we had a budget but we still got everything we wanted included in the day. Dean particularly was a great great help and Liz the event manager i believe was amazing on the day also. There was no stress or anything with the lead up and day off so we were very relaxed and got to fully enjoy our day. I would highly recommend the hotel!! Thanks everyone. :)

I would highly, highly recommend this venue for a wedding. Dean our wedding coordinator was absolutely fantastic, he put our minds at ease on a number of occasions with a few worries we had. He helped us massively right from the beginning of our journey ensuring that we had all our boxes ticked also giving us tips and advice which we had taken on board and contributed to making our day as amazing as it was. Dean and all the staff at the Hillgrove are very friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The level of service was top class, from our meal tasting prior to the big day, our overnight stays and on the big day. Everything was carefully planned and presented in a professional manner. I have no words to show how grateful and memorable our day was made.

We booked the Hillgrove for our wedding June 23 and had the most relaxed experience. Dean, along with other staff members were extremely helpful taking a lot of pressure off ourselves. Our guests have been continually praising the high standard service, quality and quantity of food provided.

Our wedding day was everything we wanted and more and if possible we would do it all over again. Dean and the Hillgrove staff were excellent at their job and no doubt if any future couples book they will have the same experience!

Highly recommend!

There isnt enough words I can say to describe the experience We had with The Hillgrove Hotel. We had our dated booked and four months before our wedding we had to postpone due to covid. This was the most easiest transfer to do with the help of Dean. Dean was so helpful with calling me back and replying to my emails to comfirm dates which We had in mind.

Dean was there when we checked in the day before and made sure everything was ok and anything we asked extra this was made happen by Dean and the most amazing team at the Hillgrove. The Day before we asked Dean was there anyway we could have our Ceremony outside and only with a few hours notice he made this very possible which was magical for Us.

The foord was outstanding and everyone was still commenting on how nice it was a week later.
My husband and myself had the most amazing day because of how Dean and the Team managed everything.
I would highly recommend booking a wedding here as their deals are so affordable and the quality of things is amazing for value of money.

We cant wait to go back and stay as this hotel will always hold a special place in our Hearts.

We Recently got married in the Hillgrove in Monaghan we had our ceremony & reception at the hotel , everything was so beautiful Dean went over and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, we were so happy with everything from start to finish , our guests are still raving about the food the best iv ever had at a wedding it was so good , it's a beautiful elegant hotel for a wedding and can not wait to visit again ????????????????

Since my husband and I first enquired about having our wedding at the Hillgrove Hotel a year prior to the date of the wedding we were introduced to Dean the wedding Co ordinator, Dean had the answer to everything we wanted to know. From day 1 we knew we had made the right choice to have our wedding here and Dean as our co-ordinator. Everything was so relaxed in the run up to the wedding, Dean was always at the other end of the phone for answering any questions, menu tasting was fantastic and so well organised also. The packages at the hillgrove are great, and something to suit everyone's budget. Overall our wedding day couldn't have went any better and that's all thanks to Dean and the staff in the hotel each and everyone of them were great and went the extra mile for us. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.

Don't look anywhere else. You are in great hands with Dean and his wedding team at the Hillgrove Hotel. We had the best wedding day and wish we could do it all again. The food was exceptional and very generous portions too. I couldn't fault the staff, very friendly and helpful. Dean was just a little star, nothing was ever too much, and as a bride planning her wedding across the water, he made the process so easy. Thank you to the entire wedding team at the Hillgrove, you are simply the best. Highly recommend. Leo & Steph xxx

We had our wedding reception in the Hillgrove Hotel on the 22.04.23 and we went for the All inclusive I Do package it was the most magical day of our lives. We worked along side Dean, who was our wedding co-ordinator. I can't praise Dean enough for all that he done for us he perfected every last detail and he is an absolute dream to work with. Dean was always at the other end of the phone if we ever needed anything day or night he is truly a massive credit to the Hillgrove and we will miss working with him until our next party. The decor in the hillgrove was set up so exquisitely everyone was commenting on how gorgeous the food was and how beautiful all of the little details were. We could not recommend the Hillgrove enough for everything that they done for us, all of the staff was absolutely amazing and not forgetting Liz who took over later on in the evening what a lady she is, she was so attentive and had everything under control with her friendly, bubbly and calming attitude...Myself and my husband would like to thank yous all so much for everything yous are a great bunch of people and run an absolutly outstanding hotel.
Lots of love

Dean our Wedding Co-Ordinator was excellent from start to finish nothing was a problem, he was very flexible and had a great calming personality. Sharon from Sales was the one who made us fall in love with the Hillgrove from our inital meeting. The food was beautiful, there was more than enough so noone was hungry. The head of food & bev (we can't remember her name) was brilliant also as well as all the waiting staff. Aside from the Wedding itself we did have a few check-in issues but everything was sorted by Dean in the end up. We had a day 2 at the Hillgrove. It was great, we had a reserved area and food for our day 2 guests and the music in the bar was an added bonus.

Dean is nothing less than amazing, anything we needed he was there to help, would love to do it all over again!

Myself and my wife got married in the Hillgrove Hotel on St Patrick's day. Dean, our wedding coordinator was absolutely fantastic from start to finish and a pleasure to deal with. He was both professional and personal. All of our guests commented on how lovely the food, venue and all it entailed was. All the staff were very welcoming and polite. We highly recommend the Hillgrove Hotel.

We held our wedding in the Hillgrove on the 16th March 2023. Guests were blown away with the hospitality from the off and the quality of food served was second to none. Dean was a great host and covered every detail. Nothing was much of an ask and we couldn't recommend enough.

Everything was perfect. The room was decorated so nicely

We had our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel in February and had an amazing day. The whole process from the initial meeting with Dean right through to the end was so easy. Dean is a wealth of information to couples planning their big day and he offers so much help guidance and support. The day ran so smooth with Dean and his team from start to finish. The food was amazing, the place looked brilliant and the staff were so helpful and friendly and nothing was any trouble for them to help us with. They made our day so special we couldn't have asked for any better.

We had our wedding on NYE 22, from the moment we booked the hillgrove everything was plain sailing they looked after all the details - Breda in accommodation, our vendors which they recommended which were brilliant and food tasting was also a lovely experience. Dean our co ordinator was brilliant he was always so responsive, accommodating and friendly in all our encounters and always on the other end of the phone when we needed him. The week and the day of the wedding was no different - all our guests raved about the drinks reception which was more than we could have anticipated, the food, ballroom and overall service we couldn't have asked for any more. The next day our guests relaxed in the reception and enjoyed some food until late afternoon. The hotel is so family friendly and nothing was an issue. I would highly recommend booking your wedding in this venue it was all we could have asked for our special day ??

The hillgrove hotel was the most amazing experience to get married in. We had looked at 1 or 2 more hotels previous to our appointment but we booked the hillgrove straight away. The service was second to none, every one of our guests said it was the best wedding dinner they have had and the
Care Dean took with us both was amazing.

I?d recommend the hillgrove and Dean coyne to anyone interested in having the perfect day.

Firstly the venue was excellent upon first viewing. We instantly knew the Hill Grove was the only location for our wedding. Dean the in house planner made us instantly feel comfortable and offered the perfect advice in a very professional manner. Absolutely everything we asked for was catered for in one way or another. I really cannot pick any faults in the Hill Grove including the planning, the actual wedding day, the guest rooms and the excellent breakfast served the morning after.

Top class service all round from start to finish. The amount of compliments we received from our guests regarding the food and service was amazing. Nothing was an issue and Dean was a pleasure to deal with. He made our day very special and stress free.

We first met Dean in February 2021 when we got engaged. We had looked at a few hotels already and the minute we met Dean we just knew he was the person we wanted to help us with our day. From day one he went out of his way to accommodate us, there were never any issues and there was always clear communication from day one. We never felt stressed or pressured at all during the wedding planning process. We set our date for October 2022 and all went perfectly. The food was amazing, everyone had so many compliments on how good the food was, just top class service. Dean himself on the day was brilliant also, helped us feel relaxed and looked after everything behind the scenes. We just knew we were in good hands. Everything we asked for was done at 110% we wouldn't change one thing about the day. We would 100% recommend the Hillgrove. They do an amazing job, every single one of them from the waiters, kitchen and bar staff, we couldn't be happier with how the day went.

We had a brilliant experience with Dean Coyne, he was an amazing help to us and guided us through our wedding day always there to help and he really puts in the effort for everyone involved.

It is difficult to put into words to justify how amazing The Hillgrove Hotel and team are.
I envy any couples considering this venue as their option for their wedding, simply because I?d love to do it all over again!
We initially booked our big day pre-covid and as a result, we?re faced with changing dates, restrictions and sadly the hotel closing their doors due to government guidelines. We rescheduled our date to 30/04/22 (with absolutely no issue) and had our amazing day.
From start to finish Dean, our wedding co-ordinator was exceptional. His real passion for his job is so evident from your first meeting right through to the big day. He is there for everything - and by everything I mean things he shouldn't even have to deal with from a bride lol. He is incredible and will bend over backwards to make sure you have an unforgettable experience at the Hillgrove Hotel.
Staff are also next level, service, speed, manners, presentation - flawless.
We cannot thank this hotel enough for the memories they have given us. Highly recommend all couples to visit the Hillgrove and speak with Dean if considering booking your wedding!

The Fegans

The food & service was unreal. People were commenting on how they never had to blow there soup to cool it at a wedding before.
We had over 350people at our wedding. Dean was amazing, Elizabeth was also top class..
nothing was a problem; they were so easy to deal with and made us feel so welcoming and comfortable anytime we checked in with them.

We cannot thank Dean and all the staff at the Hillgrove Hotel enough, everything was absolutely perfect! Anything we asked for Dean provided it for us, nothing was a problem and he couldn't be more helpful! Ourselves and our guests were absolutely blown away with the dinner service and the food, we have got so many good reviews from all our guests! They are all still raving about the refreshments on arrival also! We would 100% recommend the hotel and especially Dean he made everything run so smoothly nothing was a problem!! Such a great experience working with him to plan a wedding, he has so much great advice!

The most perfect venue if your looking for elegance. Both the ceremony room & function room are bright & classy. Drinks reception bar is separate and is also decorated to classy standard. Dean the wedding coordinator is an absolute gentleman to deal with. Nothing he won't do to make your day as special as you dream. Always on hand when needed a pleasure to deal with. Food was excellent. An overall exceptional experience from start to finish

From the moment we met Dean at the Hillgrove Hotel we knew we had not only found the right venue but more importantly the perfect person to organise our wedding. In our first conversation we were put at ease and had no hard sell, we were given information, advice and guidance even if we didn't choose the Hillgrove.

We were taken on a tour of the hotel and were offered numerous options for reception room, ceremony and packages. Every query or idea we had was answered with the phrase 'not a bother'.

The flexibility of the hotel is second to none and they go above and beyond to make the day perfect, with Dean taking all the organising stress on board leaving us to just, turn up and enjoy the day. (even setting up the children's corner in the reception room). We were lucky to have Dean look after our wedding with his professionalism and attention to detail it was perfect, we would highly recommend him to any couple.

With excellent food, spotlessly clean hotel, helpful and pleasant staff, our guests had nothing but praise for the Hillgrove Hotel and staff from check-in to check-out.

We had our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel 27th August 2022 and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish!! Dean was just fantastic from the very first meeting we had with him and the emails and phone calls which followed, literally nothing was too much trouble !! Dean is a genuinely lovely person and made the whole process so easy for us. He had everything covered, down to the tiniest detail on the day which took away the stress and worry from us, meaning we could throughly enjoy our wedding. The Hillgrove Hotel is so beautiful and the banquet room is just stunning. The bedrooms were spotless and the bridal suite was fantastic. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The meal at our wedding was absolutely delicious and there was plenty of it !! All of our guests have commented on how much they enjoyed their meal. Our wedding was everything we wanted it to be and more !! Everything ran so smoothly and went exactly how we wanted it thanks to Dean and his fantastic team. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the Hillgrove Hotel to other couples considering it as their wedding venue. Best decision ever !!!

Dean our wedding coordinator from the Hillgrove was fantastic throughout our whole wedding journey. We are delighted with our experience and the actual wedding day could not have went any more perfect. The hotel itself is stunning and the reception room is fabulous and beautiful. We had an amazing wedding such a perfect day . I'm so glad I choose here for my wedding day

We had our wedding reception at the hillgrove hotel and it was perfection. Dean was absolutely amazing. There was no request that was too big or too small for him. From start to finish every step of the way he was there to take our calls and answer our emails. Dean gave us a few great ideas also which we used on our day and they were amazing. Can honestly say only for him our day would not have been the same. The venue itself was just outstanding with great detail put into everything. Lots of great places around the grounds for pictures also.

We had our wedding just 3 days ago in the hilgrove. To say it was amazing was an understatement!!! From the first day we met Dean anything we asked of him it was always "yes! No problem." He went above and beyond for us and we can't thank him enough. The staff the food are all top notch , I guarantee anyone who visits the hotel and meets dean will not be disappointed and will find it hard for anyone to do better . Thanks again dean and team we will never forget it. My two boys have met a friend for life aswell!!
Mr.+ Mrs. Mulhall.

I have no idea where to being to describe our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel. It was more than I ever could imagined. From the initial meeting at a wedding fair and then right through to the wedding itself it was just a fantastic and a well supported journey.
Dean is fantastic and puts you at ease, nothing is too much trouble and always with a kind heart and a genuine smile. The wedding day itself was wonderful, the sheer amount of d?cor to choose from means that you don't have to worry about all those little extras as the hotel has this covered, from room decorations to cake stands, its all available should you wish to choose it. The team on the day, from the set up team to the serving team, are all so helpful and friendly. Our guests still love talking about it, and obviously we love hearing about it, but everyone said the same ? how amazing the hotel and its team was. If I was to have my wedding all over again I would be back to the Hillgrove time and time again. We are both so blessed we found this venue and we both feel the same way. Thanks again for such happy memories that will last a lifetime.

The Hillgrove is a beautiful hotel, a lovely setting for a wedding. The separate entrance to the function room makes for a lovely entrance in for the couple with a relaxed reception and bar area. The hotel was very good value for money, particularly compared to many hotels in N.I. We had so many compliments from guests about the quality of food and staff were on hand offering seconds (and thirds!), ensuring guests were very well fed and watered. The service from staff was excellent and anyone we encountered were friendly and helpful. On top of all that the real highlight for us was our co ordinator, Dean. He was full of advice, practical, sensible, genuinely enthusiastic, accommodating, a down right nice guy and a pleasure to work with. Overall we couldn't have asked for a better experience and our dealings with the hotel were the easiest part of organising our wedding. Would absolutely recommend the Hillgrove hotel as a wedding venue to anyone.

We had our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel on the 16th of July 2022 and it was hands down the best day ever. Throughout the whole planning process Dean was always a great help for any queries we had, big or small. Dean really went above and beyond with everything and made our day perfect. We couldn't praise him enough for the work and effort he put into our day. In fact the entire staff in the Hillgrove were fantastic. They were so attentive to our guests and helped the day run as smoothly as it did. We have to give a special mention to the food!! All we can say was the dinner was first class, all of our guests were raving about the meal. We stayed the following day and had dinner in PK's Bar and the food there was also exceptional. I would definitely recommend the Hillgrove to anyone looking for a wedding venue. Thanks again to Dean and all the staff at the Hillgrove. You really made our day perfect and we look forward to staying in the Hillgrove again sometime soon.

Where do we begin. From the first time visiting the hotel myself and Maria were made so welcome upon arrival, we were shown around the whole hotel from hotel lobby reception room, honeymoon suite to our resident bar. Nothing was left out and after a 2 hour show round and a relaxed sit down chat we felt nothing was forced upon us, they listened to our needs and desires. Upon leaving that first walk around we knew we had found our hotel. Without hesitation we placed a deposit and one sentence that stuck with me was Dean (our wedding coordinator) saying "We work for you now". That meant alot as it felt like Dean and the Hillgrove wanted to be part of our wedding and not just a wedding venue.

From countless emails regarding wedding prep, Dean made even the smallest details achievable to help make our day that extra bit special. He helped ease our stress and worries and honestly without his help and guidance we wouldn't have got the perfect day.

To the venue, the hotel is so welcoming from when your greeted at reception, to the bar staff and the staff in the restaurant. The wedding reception room was nothing sort of spectacular, we had a vision of how we wanted the room and Dean delivered it, the room can be designed and catered to all different needs, it deff is worth seeing. The reaction of our guests proved this as everyone commented on how stunning the room was.

We included a second day of celebrating to our weekend, and the attention to detail was as high a standard as it was for our wedding day. The staff catered to our needs and went the extra mile to securing extra bedrooms and putting on extra food for our buffet.

There are many hotels that will take a wedding, but I can honestly say from the heart that not one of them will cater or go that extra mile for you than the Hillgrove,

And Dean our wedding coordinator, he is so passionate about his job, and I repeat how well he made us feel leading up to our wedding and how he gave us the day we wanted. I can honestly say we have made a special friendship with him. Thank you for everything Dean.

Book an appointment to view the Hillgrove for your wedding. I promise you won't be disappointed.

*****

What can we say, we had the most amazing experience with Dean and all the wedding team at the Hillgrove Hotel. Nothing was ever too much trouble and they were so accommodating with any request we had. Our guests couldn't speak highly enough of the food, we had around 280 guests and the service was fast and flawless. We can't thank the Hillgrove enough for facilitating the best day of our lives. For anyone considering we would 100% recommend.

The hillgrove where amazing
From start to finish, they couldn't have done enough for us
They made sure all guests where seen too and happy
I am totally over the moon with how special they made our day. I can't even put into words how magical they made our day
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts

We couldn't recommend the Hillgrove enough. Dean was everything you want in a wedding co-ordinated and made the process stress less and hassle free.
Our wedding day was everything we imagined and our guests had a brilliant day. They were very impressed by the food! M

From the minute we viewed the Hillgrove and met Dean we just knew this was where we wanted to have our special day. Dean was amazing from the get go, nothing was ever a problem. In the run up to our big day knowing we had Dean and his team keeping everything right took away any stress we had! Our wedding day was more than perfect, and everything ran so smoothly. We both cannot thank Dean enough for everything he done for us! Best in the business

All we can say is WOW . From the first moment seeing the ball room set up for a wedding showcase we both fell in love with the thought of having our wedding there and booked our special day there and then .Without the professionalism Of Dean ( Wedding Planning Manger ) and his team our big day would not have went as smooth as it did . Dean was available 24/7 and always at the end of the phone if needed. He has great attention to detail and made sure every request we had was followed through. Our guests commented on how nice Dean was and brilliant at his job , an absolute credit to the hotel . We formed a special bond from the offset , he has a bright and bubbly personality and makes you feel totally at ease. He was amazing on the day in keeping us both calm and collected before the ceremony .He went above and beyond his duties in saving the bride from a total meltdown over a blunder noticed late into the evening the night before and saved the day ! A member of his staff Chris even offered to drive 1.5hrs away and get something needed , an unbelievably kind gesture from her and very much appreciated. The food was delicious and plenty of it , our guests were still talking about it the next day and couldn't compliment the chef enough. The service was fast and without fault and a special credit to Evelyn whom served the top table , she was extremely helpful and a pleasure to chat to .
We would highly recommend any couples considering this venue to get in contact with Dean and book straight away . Amazing Professionalism , Service and Value from Dean and his team at The Hillgrove Hotel. We look forward to returning to the hotel in the near future.

If your looking for a hotel to take your stress away the hillgrove is the only place to go from the minute we met Dean the wedding coordinator everything was a breeze he was on hand for anything we needed even down to the day itself he took on new challenges such as fixing my veil for me and was there to sort any thing we needed !! I cannot recommend Dean enough to help organise your dream day he made our day run so smoothly and no task was too much for him !! family members commented numerous times as to how helpful Dean was to everyone throughout the day aswell as he was literally ten steps ahead of us no matter what I asked even at one point I couldn't find my wedding shoes but Dean had them already under my seat at the top table so they wouldn't be lost all these little details that make your day run so well !!! the hotel itself was also amazing and people couldn't compliment the staff and the food enough as it was simply gorgeous !!! will forever be grateful to Dean and the hillgrove staff for helping us celebrate our dream day

We got married in the Hilgrove on the 2nd April 2022. We had such an amazing day it couldn't of gone any better. Everything from the staff the service every detail the food everything was just amazing. Especially Dean from the day we booked our wedding right up to the day he was such a great help, if I was stressing or needed help with anything he was just a message away and responded asap.
All our guests had the best day ever as well everyone absolutely loved the food. Can't wait to book in for an overnight stay. Absolutely amazing.
From Mr & Mrs McGeough xx

Absolute top class service from both Dean and the team in the hillgrove. Still a month on and everyone complimenting the food and service provided. Despite the short notice with restrictions lifting Dean was more than happy to accommodate extra number etc. He was a pleasure to work and cannot recommend the hotel enough.

We cannot thank the Hillgrove Hotel enough but particularly Dean Coyne for all the help in organising our wedding day. Having had to postpone it for a year due to the pandemic, Dean really put us at ease and reassured us with all the organising. We were accommodated with all our requests and ideas. There was always someone at the other end of an email or phone whenever we had a question. It truly was a day that we will remember for the rest of our lives. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat with the same hotel!

Couldn't rate highly enough, from day one to the day after, Dean and his team were excellent, nothing was too much trouble, very professional, helpful and a very warm personal experience. The flexibility and kindness that was shown to us was incredible. Truly made our experience one to remember, honestly believe they couldn't be beaten when it comes to weddings. The only way I can simply put it is, a 100 out of 10 from me and my wife.

It's hard to express in a few words just how amazing Dean and the Hillgrove team are. Dean dedicated so much of his time (even outside working hours) to keep me calm and relaxed through our whole wedding journey. We honestly have never dealt with such a hard working gentleman who clearly has great passion for his workplace and his career. Our wedding day was perfect and all our guests continue to compliment the amazing venue, delicious food and 5* service we all received over our wedding weekend. Dean continually went above and beyond anyone's expectations of a wedding co-ordinator and ensured every fine detail was perfected for our special day. Our wedding day may have gone by us in the blink of an eye but we will forever hold special memories thanks to the Hillgrove team. It is a truly spectacular venue and every single part of our day went perfectly to plan thanks to Dean. I can safely say any future couple searching for their perfect wedding venue won't find anything quite as amazing as The Hillgrove

Our wedding was in the Hillgrove last week, and I can't thank Dean enough for all his hard work behinds the scenes, he made our day so special and stress free, the staff and the food at the hotel is fantastic, I would highly recommended the hillgrove for a wedding or just a stay with the kids, the value for money is brilliant we couldn't fault it, and staff super friendly. I will be recommending Dean and the team at the hillgrove to all up coming couples getting married, we had the best day and it was all thanks to Dean and his team.

It's near impossible to put one of the most important days of your life into someone's hands but we knew with the Hillgrove Hotel it would be completely safe. We had initially booked our wedding with a different hotel however after attending a wedding fayre at the hillgrove we knew we just had to have our wedding here. The hotel itself is so beautiful however the staff here 1000% make it. Dean Coyne is the most incredible wedding co-ordinatior we have ever met. No matter what we needed big or small and time of the day he was there emailing back even the most silliest questions were not a bother! Dean made our day 100% He is an incredible asset to the wedding industry and goes above and beyond his call of duty every single day. The hillgrove provided us with the most beautiful meal and everyone was commenting on how beautiful the meal was and there was plenty of food to go around which is always a plus! Even some of our kids changed their minds last minute but Dean was on the ball getting everything sorted for them straight away which was a beautiful touch. We literally felt like the most important people in the world that day and that's all thanks to Dean and all the wonderful staff at the Hillgrove hotel. I'm still very emotional writing this because I would absolutely love to do this all again! It really is the fastest day of your life but with the Hillgrove there is no stress!
Dean thank you from the bottom of our hearts we were so blessed to have met you and have you plan our very special day! We hope to see you again very soon because the Hillgrove hotel will always hold a very special place in our hearts. Love the new Mr and Mrs Davis. 20.11.2021

The hotel was exceptional and very accommodating. Dean our wedding planner was absolutely fantastic and nothing was ever too much trouble. We couldn't recommend them enough

Our wedding was a week ago and we still have the biggest smiles on our faces, the Hillgrove Hotel in Monaghan was a fantastic venue, we got engaged in 2019 and quickly realised the Hillgrove was the place we wanted to get married, we chose the I do all inclusive package which included a band and DJ, photographer, cake, flowers and all the extras from the hotel. Firstly let me say that our band Vertigo and photographer Manuel Lavery were simply fantastic and without recommendation from the hotel we would have never known about them. As for service in the Hillgrove Dean is fantastic everytime we went down to the hotel for whatever reason he was there to welcome us, keep us calm through Covid and really made it a personal experience it was like we were the only bride and groom he was working with, he gave fantastic guidance and advice and it was an absolute pleasure the work with him, we really can't praise Dean enough he is a real asset to the Hillgrove Hotel and we can honestly say he made our wedding experience the best it could have been, the day of our wedding was the best day, food, service and personal touches left by Dean and the amazing team in the Hillgrove was flawless. All our guests simply said it was the best wedding and everyone had an amazing time. You can't get any better value for money and this was a hotel that is more interested in creating a magical day for their brides and grooms no matter what your budget is, the only wedding venue i have seen that includes everything from chair covers, centerpieces, light up love sign and even a Cherry Blossom tree for the table plan, simply FANTASTIC!!! Thank you so much Dean and the Hillgrove Team!!

There are not enough words we can use to describe how absolutely fantastic the hillgrove Hotel and their staff made our wedding day! Every single detail we envisioned for our day the hillgrove delivered on, the food was unbelievable, taste, flavour, quantity. The atmosphere created within our room, fantastic. The incredible staff, each of which were so friendly, polite and helpful. No surprise really as we dealt with Dean the wedding coordinator within the hotel, who for us we felt truly made the whole experience that bit more special, his attention to detail and wanting to make your day YOURS. Bridal suite, guest rooms all impeccably clean and well maintained. Credit where it is due, this is an exceptional hotel to consider for your wedding day. We are so happy and can personally guarantee we will be back to celebrate many more life events with this incredible hotel and its staff

Myself and my husband recently celebrated our wedding reception in the Hillgrove Hotel, Monagahan. We had the best experience and I honestly can't thank Dean and the staff at the hotel enough for making our day so perfect. Like most couples, we were supposed to get married in 2020. We chose The Hillgrove the day we viewed it, the room was spectacular, the all inclusive package covered everything we hoped our day would have, and we got a really amazing discount for taking one of the last available dates for that year. When covid struck and it began to sink in that we were going to have to postpone, we were devastated. That's when Dean stepped in (taking over from our origional wedding coordinator) and what a life saver he was. He underst9od our needs for pushing back (we had a number of high risk family and friends), he listened to what we wanted to get out of the day and he understood all our concerns. He kept in touch with us regularly over the next year, meeting with us when he could. He accommodated late number changes and made recommendations we would have never thought of. Even up to the week before our wedding the government were still making announcements (good ones thankfully) and Dean coped with it all (and kept us sane). The sun shone on the day, but if it hadn't have, Dean had two entrances arranged for us, one covered and one uncovered. He kept everything running like clockwork so we could sit back, enjoy and take it all in. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful the food was and the staff on the day were just fantastic, so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. I honestly couldn't recommend The Hillgrove Hotel and Dean highly enough. They are truly superb at what they do. Thank you so much Dean and the team, for giving us the best day of our lives and for all your help and support throughout. We look forward to seeing you all again soon.

The McGarrys

We got married last Saturday and had our reception at the Hillgrove. We booked our wedding here before Covid was ever a thing and from the get go we felt that unlike any other hotels the Hillgrove were willing to give back to couples ie. the gift to you.
Like many other couples we had to postpone our wedding for September 2020 and this was done so smoothly and totally hassle free.
As our new wedding approached and guidelines needed clarification from the government we were starting to dread a covid wedding again but after speaking to Enda he soon to put us at ease and helped make the planning enjoyable again.
Dean had then taken over and well what can we say, as a newly promoted wedding events manager he was more that happy to go over and beyond for us nothing was to big of an ask. If there was anything he could do for us he did. Dean was an absolute delight to work along with in making our special day as magical as it was.
All the staff in general on our wedding day couldn't be faulted, the food was endless and glasses were never empty. Everyone just kept talking about the amount of food and how nice it was.
If we were to do it again we wouldn't change a thing.
Thank you very much, from the new Mr & Mrs Cunningham 18.09.21

Couldnt have ever wished for our Wedding to be so amazing ! And it wouldn't have been that without the outstanding help and support from Enda and Dean our wedding coordinators from the Hillgrove Hotel.
The staff all we?re brilliant, the food was just amazing everyone of our guests couldnt commented enough about the food at our wedding!! A complete stress free event thanks to the help of our wedding coordinators!
Thank you

From the very first day we were by to the Hillgrove to book our wedding there, which was a civil wedding and full reception, the staff were so professional and explained every detail so clearly, they left no questions unanswered, we were shown the function room, the civil ceremony room, both laid out immaculately and beautiful, we were shown the new garden, full choice menus which even catered for dietary requirements, everything was made so clear to us and the Hillgrove staff, namely Enda and Dean, both fully worked with us for our wedding, alongside the wedding celebrant, florists and cake maker, due to corolabola Govt restrictions and because of the restrictions, the Hillgrove staff namely Enda and Dean actually gave us for our day a lot of extra decorations and features to make the civil ceremony, entry hall and reception room even more fantastic and beautifully decorated, thank you all so much, we were to have our wedding last year but had to postpone it till this year, that was no problem to them at all, the govt restrictions still placed a limit on us, of 50 guests and no live music, Enda and Dean played trumps with us by organising the Spotify playlist made by the band we had booked, to be played both at the civil ceremony and after the wedding meal, that really made the nigh for us, the food was fantastic, so thanks to the chefs and the banquet staff for amazing service, choices, efficiency and prices, all were brilliant, the rooms for guests and the bridal suite were all to class, the professionalism of Enda and Dean with all thier help and guidance was unreal and without them, we were pule have been lost, they even kept the flowers in a fridge!!!!
Who ever is thinking of booking the Hillgrove for thier wedding, don't dare bypass them as you will regret it, they only complaint we had was, it's an awful pity you guys didn't have Hillgrove Hotel over the past few years, it's now a truly amazing hotel under management of INUA hotels and well turned around and decorated top to bottom, with amazing staff and excellent prices, compared to its previous owners, in fact I'd love to work there

We had the most amazing wedding day and weekend at the hillgrove hotel. Mary and the rest of the staff were absolutely fantastic. They made us feel like nothing was too much to ask and the attention to detail was very much appreciated. Mary has such a lovely calm approachable Manor and I knew our day was in great hands from the beginning, she really knows her stuff!! The food was delicious and the service was excellent. The ballroom we chose for both our ceremony and reception was just newly refurbished to a high standard with its own entrance and drinks reception area, extremely handy for us as we decided to go ahead in the middle of a pandemic. Both myself and my husband and all our guests felt the hotel took all the necessary steps to keep us safe and protected. Our day was just dreamy!!! I cannot recommend having your wedding in this venue enough. It was an absolute delight!

We held our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel, Monaghan on 6th March 2020. We had the most wonderful day from start to finish and we are so glad we chose the Hillgrove as our venue.
Our wedding coordinator, Mary, was just brilliant from start to finish. Mary was warm, welcoming and mannerly when dealing with us at all times and nothing was ever a bother for this lovely lady and her wonderful team!
We had A fabUlous welcoming reception laid on for us & our guests. our dinner was just sublime - the guests are still talking about it!
All in all everything was just perfect and the Hillgrove couldn't have done enough for us.
Thank you all so much for the most special day.

Absolutely brilliant team who catered to our every need. Took wonderful care of us all. No detail too small no request too big. Very impressive work indeed. By far the best customer service I have ever seen at an event.

Our wedding in the Hillgrove hotel was an absolutely excellent experience.
The hotel staff were superb from the minute we walked in the door to speak to the wedding planners when we were researching wedding venues, all the way through to the minute we left on the day after our wedding.

Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, all our needs were expertly looked after, and the quality of the rooms, the decor, the foyer, the wedding reception rooms etc., was all superb.
On the day of the wedding itself, we were expertly managed by the experienced staff, and the food and service were top notch.

There was not one complaint from any of our guests (240 people),so we are delighted with the hotel, and are totally comfortable with recommending it to other couples who are looking for a great wedding venue.

I selected the Hillgrove Hotel as my wedding reception venue it was so accomadating for all our needs and wants. I could not recommend them enough for all there hard work and efforts. This hotel has it all from good food to great staff etc I would definitely recommend people to visit.

We recently had our wedding reception in the Hillgrove hotel. Was such a fabulous venue. From the d?cor to the wonderful picturesque gardens. The staff were friendly approachable and went the extra mile to ensure that our day went smoothly and kept to the schedule. The service for our meal was exceptional the food was delicious and most important hot on delivery. The bridal suite was beautiful and there hairdressing service was brilliant and good value for money. It is a wonderful hotel to visit and lovely place to eat highly recommend it

It's a beautiful venue for a wedding from the food too the rooms and staff it was incredible. Thank you so much for giving us one of the best day of our lives.

We recently had our wedding at The Hillgrove, 30/08/2019. I can not recommend The Hilgrove Hotel enough. The staff, the food, the location, the venue - everything was amazing, could not have asked for better. Mary our wedding coordinator was amazing, she could not have done more for us! The whole experience with The Hillgrove was very hassel free, and relaxed which is what a bride wants. The venue suited everyone, families, friends, young and old - they have facilities for everyone. We spent the next day in the Hillgrove as well, best weekend ever! Thank You! Mr & Mrs McGee x

Mr & Mrs McCreanor

I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the Hillgrove to any future Bride and Grooms. The entire service was absolutely excellent from quality of the service and food, to the welcome and the setup. Mary, Enda and the entire team made us feel so relaxed and welcome and we thoroughly enjoyed every second of our day. The food was incredible and all our guests (many of whom travelled from England) commented on how welcome they felt over the whole weekend. Nothing was too much trouble and throughout our entire reception everything was so in hand by the staff that both myself and my husband barely left the dancefloor and we got to enjoy every second of our evening with our guests - which was exactly what we wanted. If I were to do it all over again the only thing I would change would be to make it last even longer!

The staff at Hillgrove Hotel were very helpful and flexible in helping to plan our wedding reception. On the day the staff were exceptional in terms of their attentiveness and organisation. This helped ensure we had a truly memorable day. Nothing was a problem for any of the staff. The function room was very well prepared down to the last detail. So many of our guests commented on how comfortable the hotel was and how helpful and accommodating the staff were. We would definitely recommend the Hillgrove Hotel as a wedding venue.

What an amazing day we had from start to finish Enda, Mary and their team couldn't have been more helpful! They had the rooms set up to perfection, it was beyond what I expected! Food is amazing staff are all super friendly, every member of our group loved the day from young to old! You will have your perfect wedding her nothing is a problem to the staff
To Enda and Mary

We had our wedding day on 8th July this year and I have nothing but praise for Mary, Enda and the wedding team. The food, service and hotel far exceeded my expectations. I wanted a day that my husband and I could relax and enjoy time with our family and friends enjoying great food and that is exactly what we got. I would have no hesitation recommending the Hillgrove Hotel to any potential Bride & Groom. You are in safe hands.

We had our wedding day in the Hillgrove hotel 22-6-19 we both had an amazing day. We couldn't thank Mary and Enda enough nothing was to much trouble for them. The food and service was first class. We would definitely recommend Hillgrove Hotel for a wedding.

Our wedding at the Hillgrove hotel was June 2019 and it was just out of this world. We couldn't fault it from start to finish. Enda and Mary truly are the best at there job and we couldn't thank them enough. We would highly recommend anyone to have there wedding here. They think of everything and the attention to detail is just amazing...

I had my civil ceremony and reception in the Hilgrove Hotel Monaghan. From the first meeting Mary and Enda were amazing so helpful and keen to make sure we had the best day. On our big day the room was beautifully decorated and Mary and Enda were there to help and make sure we were happy. The food was amazing and plentiful. My guests comments were about the relaxing atmosphere and beautiful food and helpful staff. I would recommend the Hilgrove Hotel to any couple I had the best day ever.

Our Wedding Day!
We had our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel on 27th April and from start to finish it was fab. The guests loved the champagne/ guiness reception along with the scones and shortbread treats when they arrived. The decor of the hotel is just beautiful already but on the day with all our chair covers and silver bows provided by the hotel it looked top class. The food was to die for and we are still getting compliments about it. Not to mention the amazing room service breakfast wE recieved the in the Bridal Suite the next morning!!! Everything went so smoothly and Mary the hotels wedding co-ordinator made us feel so at ease knowing she had everything under control. Myself and my new Husband would like to thank all the hotel staff and especially Mary for making our special day even more amazing. I would definately recommend this fabulous hotel for any future Bride and Grooms! X

We celebrated our wedding in The Hillgrove Hotel earlier this year and we had Thee Perfect Day. The wedding team lead by Mary and Enda couldn't have done enough. Making us and our guests feel very special on our arrival and comfortable throughout the day. The dining room was beautifully decorated and our sweet cart, table plan and cake table beautifully arranged. No request was too much for this flexible and efficient team.The food was delicious and we were fed and dancing by 9. A great venue that I'd highly recommend.

We had our wedding here in February(2019) and it was amazing. I couldn't say enough good things about our wedding coordinator Mary. She was fantastic from the very first meeting and nothing was too much trouble. As well as being excellent at her job she is a genuinely lovely person and made the whole process so easy and had everything covered on the day which took away any stress for us and meant we could enjoy it properly. The hotel itself is beautiful and the rooms are spotless and very spacious and the bridal suite was fantastic. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The food was fantastic and there was plenty of it and all of our guests have commented on how much they enjoyed their meal.
Our wedding was everything we wanted it to be and everything ran so smoothly and went exactly how we wanted it thanks to Mary and her team. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the Hillgrove Hotel to other couples considering it as their wedding venue.

I would highly recommend The Hillgrove Hotel as a wedding venue. Mary was our wedding coordinator and she could not of did anymore for us. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The hotel itself was absolutely perfect. We really did have the most amazing day of our lives.

Cannot recommend these guys enough. Mary was our wedding coordinator. Nothing was any trouble for her. She was absolutely fantastic. Anything we wanted or needed she made sure it was seen to at the drop of a hat. A beautiful person inside and out she really couldn't do enough for us . I had lots of little extra bits that I wanted added in and she made sure all was looked after. The staff are fantastic. The moment I walked into our reception room it took my breath away. It was laid out to perfection and was so much more beautiful than I could have imagined. The food was impeccable. The bar and waiting staff was always on hand to tend to everyone's needs. My guests are still talking about the great day they had and most of that was down to this superb venue.

From start to finish our experience with the Hillgrove could not be faulted. They fulfilled every request we had without question and were always available to answer any queries we may have had. Mary, our wedding co-ordinator ensured that the day ran smoothly and everything could not have been more perfect. The food and service was exceptional and all the guests were of the same opinion. The hotel itself is spectacular and we were so impressed with the attention to detail and value they provided. We would highly recommend the Hillgrove to anyone as an amazing wedding venue.

From when we first stepped into the Hillgrove, it was always first class. So welcoming, family friendly and a lovely relaxed atmosphere! We had our wedding here in August 2018 and we loved every minute of it! The wedding coordinator Mary give everything 200% to make our day run so smoothly. Not just for the bridal party but for everyone attending the wedding! We really had a fantastic customer experience with the Hotel and certainly would recommend it for any event! Every single person that attended the wedding had a great day and spoke so highly of the hotel, the staff, the food and the service!

Very helpful. Great price. Lovely staff. Food was beautiful. Hotel is warm, cosy and classy.

We held our wedding on 4th August 2018 in the Van Gogh suite in the Hillgrove Hotel. From the minute we got out of our limo we were taken care of. Enda is a gentleman who is excellent at his job. The staff in the Hillgrove are outstanding, nothing is ever a bother. Mary and Enda are both excellent and a pleasure to deal with, both made my experience an easy and delightful one. The room was absolutely stunning exactly what I wanted. Our guests all commented on how good the food and the service they received from the staff. Everyone was eating at the same time so no waiting around. I would recommend the Hillgrove for a wedding and I wish I could do mine all over again. Thank you Enda and Mary for helping us have the best day!

We held our wedding in the Hillgrove and it was a fantastic day! Food was great and the room where we held our ceremony was beautifully decorated, staff were pleasant and very helpful! Our wedding co-ordinator (Mary) went over and beyond for us, anyone planning to get married should definitely go for a look around. It was a pleasure from the planning to our big day.

We got married on the 20th of July and had our reception in the Hillgrove Hotel in Monaghan. We both had an amazing day and would highly recommend as a wedding venue to any couple. The service was amazing and the food was outstanding. A lot of our guests commented on how nice the food was. The staff could not have done more for us, from the minute we arrived they were ready and waiting to serve us. Our wedding co ordinator was exceptional nothing was too much hassle and she answered any questions that we had promptly. Mary made the whole experience very stress free and we knew everything was in hand. We would like to thank the Hillgrove for an amazing day.

The Hillgrove was the perfect venue for our wedding reception. The staff are extremely friendly, the function room was a perfect size and set up. When we first started wedding planning and viewing venues I felt the experience very overwhelming. But when we viewed the Hillgrove and met with the wedding coordinator we knew the venue was for us, she had such experience planning and coordinating weddings she put us at ease. We opted for the wedding package the Hillgrove offered which was great value for money and put us in contact with high-quality local suppliers.

Mary the wedding coordinator was a pleasure to work with and nothing was too much to ask from her, she was always willing to go that extra mile to make our day perfect and what we wanted. Our guests loved the venue, raved about the food which was delicious!

Could not fault this hotel from start to finish. Everything was no problem to them. Every request was handled perfectly and the pricing was superb. We really couldn't find better value for money anywhere. Fell in love with the hotel from we first arrived. The food was amazing. All our guest commented on how beautiful it was and that there was plenty on offer.

Mary and her team at the Hillgrove are fab. Very friendly and professional and put my mind at ease on our wedding day. The hotel is amazing, great food, beautiful hotel and lovely staff throughout.

What can I say...just wow!! From the very first moment we came to the Hillgrove as a possible venue we were blown away!! The hotel is decorated to such a high standard, the staff are amazing..so so helpful and the food is fabulous!! We booked straight away and it was the best decision we made hands down. Mary & her team couldn't do enough for us, so helpful, professional and calmed me down at the later stages of planning when I started to fuss over the small stuff. All of our guests loved the food on the wedding day, including some people that are notoriously hard to please!! We had a lot of guests stay over on the wedding night and all reviews were positive the next day which was great to hear. Another note is that my brother with severe disabilities was treated like a King that day, the staff couldn't do enough to help out and that for me was the icing on the cake. Can't wait for our next visit..hopefully, get a weekend away soon!! Highly recommend to all brides in the booking stage...you won't regret it!!

Myself and My Husband Celebrated our Wedding in the Hillgrove in January,
Everything was fantastic, every request I had was never a problem. We sat 309 guests and everyone was delighted with the food and service on the day. We had hot whiskeys and mini burgers on arrival which went down a treat :) People still talk about our wedding which is great, unfortunately when all is over that's all you have left, is that all your guests had a great day. Thank you to all the staff!

We recently got married in the Hillgrove hotel and I cannot explain how amazing our experience was! Mary Quigley our wedding coordinator was exceptional and she covered all the little details that made our day perfect! From the food to the bridal suite to the unbelievable service the day was perfect from start to finish!
Throughout the run up to our wedding mary was always at the end of the phone or email to help us with anything we needed! Mary went beyond her duties to make this day so special for us and was even there to reassure me the week before when I was slightly stressed!
A 10/10 from my new husband and I! All of our guests have said how exceptional the day was also!
Highly recommend the Hillgrove for any upcoming brides and grooms!

Excellent staff, everything was so beautifully organised and well run on the way- I didn't feel stressed knowing that Linda had everything under control. Food amazing. Guests and the time of their lives. Highly recommend

Thank yoi from the bottom of my heart for making our day so majestic magical and fantastic x

Myself & husband Kevin got married in the Hillgrove on 31.12.16 with a huge thanks to Mary. We had the best day ever & through our the whole prep Mary & the Hillgrove were just superb. No task was any bother to them. Would 150% recommend the Hillgrove from the food (amazing) to the decor to the helpfulness. Honestly we haven't a bad word to say. I just wish we could re do it all again! Anything we needed from bands to cake suppliers they helped us out with everything. We can't wait to come back & stay again.

My wedding guests are still talking about them an the hotel itself. Would highly recommend the hillgrove hotel, i can assure u, u defo won't be dissapointed!!

We had the most amazing day celebrating our wedding at the HillGrove Hotel.
Mary was our wedding coordinator she was absolutely amazing. Nothing was a problem. She made our day run so smoothly I can not thank her enough for all she did for us.
Amazing hotel with fabulous staff, fantastic food with a great atmosphere.

We are so grateful to the Hillgrove for making our day so special. And we continually recommend this hotel to friends and family. Well done to all involved x

We really cannot recommend the Hillgrove enough. From start to finish the day was amazing and this was down to the professionalism and organisation of Linda and the rest of the team. We felt so relaxed and comfortable from the minute we arrived at the hotel and the food and the service was 5 star. We were organising the wedding from Australia and the support we received from the Hillgrove team was greatly appreciated and made our life very easy. From the bottom of our hearts, thanks so much. We had the best day ever xxx

Great service from a great team
