Also big thank you to liz for beautiful food everything was perfect and food was great .

Thank you is not enough for the quality and service we received from Hillgrove Staff, from the planning to the actual day it was unbelievable.
Liz and Lynn could not have done more for us they are professional and nothing is ever a problem, they honestly don’t know how good they are.
Danny assisted us throughout the meal and again the professionalism was over and above he was always discreetly in the background attending to everyone’s needs.
Our guests are still talking about the food and service of the hotel we honestly couldn’t have asked for more.
To all the staff at the Hillgrove thank you so much x

The staff at the Hillgrove Hotel were exceptional during our wedding day. Gary, Liz and Lynn were amazing throughout the entire day.
Gary and Liz in particular spent so much time in making sure our guests were comfortable, had enough to eat and making sure they were having a good time.
Lynn was amazing in the run up to the day and putting us at ease on the day. The servers on the day were also great and couldn’t do enough for us.
Thank you so much for everything each of you did.

A day we will never, ever forget. From the most incredible food and the laughter that filled the room, to the kindness and care of every single member of staff, every little detail made the day so incredibly special. Right until the very end of the night, Lynn & Liz went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. And our first dance… something we’ll hold in our hearts forever. They made that moment feel so magical, so intimate and so unforgettable. We couldn’t have dreamed of a more beautiful day. The memories, the love, the laughter and all the little moments in between will stay with us forever. Truly the most special day of our lives. Thank you so much for everything!!

If you are thinking about booking the Hillgrove for your big day, definitely do it! From the moment we emailed about viewing the hotel, to the day of checkout, we have had an absolutely amazing experience. All the staff but especially Lynn and Liz were unbelievable. Lynn, thrown into the deep end with our planning with only starting was so helpful & understanding, she helped us decide on things so much. She was so kind, accommodating & professional. Liz was there for every moment of our wedding celebrations & kept the show on the road. She was a literal angel - nothing was a bother for her at all! She went above and beyond for us and we are so grateful. Liz was more like a friend than anything, we had so many laughs and she was such good craic to be around! Thank you so much for everything.

Arriving at the venue and being welcomed by Lynn and Liz, who took us straight into the dinner room and gave us a drink and some food to help us relax and have a moment together,
Food and service were absolutely amazing!!
Lynn was fantastic from start to finish! Nothing was a bother and made everything so easy! She was a pleasure to deal with. Liz also was amazing and so friendly and welcoming. All the staff were amazing on the day, many of our guests mentioned this also!
Our wedding day was everything I wished for and more! It was everything I dreamt off! From the very start of our wedding planning journey, The Hillgrove Hotel made it so easy for us. Nothing was a problem and they were always quick with responding to any queries I had. The stand out point for me and my guests was the amazing food and service we received. The staff were fantastic and were very attentive. Our day was full of so much love and laughter. I wouldn’t change a thing from our special day. It was amazing!!

Without a doubt, the most memorable moment was walking into the beautifully transformed ballroom as newlyweds, seeing all our favourite people cheering, smiling, and raising a glass to us. The room looked exactly like our dream, filled with soft lighting and fresh flowers, and hearing the band strike up our favourite song right then gave us goosebumps—it felt like the whole day stood still just for us.
Absolutely—so many parts of our day went far beyond what we imagined, and it’s those extra touches that have stayed with us ever since. One tiny suggestion would be to share a simple timeline or checklist of key milestones a little earlier in the planning journey, just to help couples visualise exactly how the day flows from start to finish
Our wedding day at The Hillgrove Hotel & Spa was truly like stepping into our very own fairytale—warm, joyful, and perfect in every way we could have hoped for. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely looked after; the team treated us like family, anticipating every little need and ensuring everything unfolded just as we’d dreamed.

5star service for absolutely everything at the Hillgrove!! Firstly we dealt with Dean and Jonathan and nothing was a bother at all, any query was answered quickly and professionally. Both Dean and Jonathan had a keen eye for every detail and everything was perfected. Closer to our big day, we were in contact with Liz and she was an angel! Liz was absolutely amazing, decorating our room to perfection and making sure everything ran perfectly - she was my saving grace on the day making sure I had nothing to worry about or query. The food was beautiful - all our guests kept complimenting how hot, tasty and quick the service was. The bar service was also very quick and no one was waiting too long for a drink. I would highly highly recommend booking your wedding at the Hillgrove, wouldn’t change a thing about my day.

Everyone was so helpful, there was nothing that was difficult or stressful the hillgrove staff made our day perfect

We had our wedding at the Hillgrove Hotel on 6th December, and by God, was it a day to remember! From start to finish, it was simply amazing. The only fault I have? It’s over!

To Sharon, Breda, Molly, and all the staff at the Hillgrove — yous are all so lovely and so friendly. From the moment we arrived, every single member of staff made us feel welcome and at ease. All the staff had smiles on their faces, and nothing was ever too much. I know it’s their job, but it’s not always easy to keep smiling with kids running all around you — yet they did, and they did it so naturally. They were absolutely incredible.

The care, patience, and kindness shown to us and all our guests did not go unnoticed, and it truly made such a difference to our day. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you all so much for everything you did to make our wedding day so special. We will never forget it.

And not forgetting the most wonderful person to ever have the job as a wedding coordinator — Dean. I honestly don’t even know where to start when talking about him — he is everything you could need and more. Planning a wedding is stressful, but when you have Dean, everything about your day feels easy. Nothing I mentioned to Dean was ever a problem. From bringing in our own decorations to complement the amazing ones they already had, to sharing my idea of having Santa arrive on the day with presents for all the children — everything was met with enthusiasm and reassurance.

Dean even came in the day before our wedding to meet with me and go through the decorations, which he then personally set up in all the areas we had discussed — all while suffering with the flu! He even stayed on when he was due to leave, just so we could get one last magical photo. And to be honest, I think he’s glad he did. But seriously, who does that? Dean does!

There is, and will never be, anyone more understanding, calm, and genuine than Dean Coyle. Everyone from our wedding is still talking about him, and I’m sure every year on our anniversary, Dean’s name will come up. We honestly cannot thank him enough for everything he has done for us. Our wedding was the most magical day of our lives, and a huge part of that is thanks to him.

Once you’ve met Dean, you’ll understand exactly why he has won so many awards. He truly is the best wedding coordinator EVER!

We got married at the Hillgrove on 31st October 2025. The hotel was recommended to us by another couple we are friends with who just viewed the venue for their own wedding. Honestly I wasn’t sure at first because I didn’t want to step on their toes but once we went to see the Hotel and speak with Dean and his team there was no turning back- we were blown away. Before we had even booked the hotel, Dean had given us a bank of resources that would be useful for planning a wedding including a check list for planning with time scales and questions to ask venues. Booking the venue was so simple. Dean became the extra bridesmaid/man of honour we didn’t know we needed! Dean is the most loveliest person you could come across. He always reiterated that we contact him with any questions or concerns, which I did and at rare times and he always replied! As we had a package, Dean did so much organising for us that took a lot off our shoulders. The build up to the wedding was amazing. The menu tasting was fab and Dean made a point of speaking to everyone and hearing their opinions and suggesting little things to change/swap out. When he met us in the foyer he always remembered our names and jobs and was able to have a full scale conversation, which is commendable with the amount of couples he is meeting and working with! Any time we asked to pop in to see the room or have a chat it was never any bother! We dropped off some decorations and things the day before our wedding and Dean and Liz wouldn’t even accept our help to put the stuff out! They went above and beyond what we ever expected or imagined. Not forgetting all the laughs and crc we had with them. On the day of our wedding when we walked into the room there were autumnal flowers as centre pieces. I had looked into them but was happy enough with the original white flowers that the hotel provided. Dean went out of his way to source some for our day as a surprise because he knew this was something we wanted! From booking, to planning and prep to the day itself we had the best time and we couldn’t recommend Dean and the team at the Hillgrove enough! The whole thing was amazing and was a breeze!!

Hillgrove Hotel is the most beautiful hotel for a wedding. We got married on the 27th September 2025. From the moment we met Dean the wedding co-ordinator we knew we wanted to book the Hillgrove. Dean was born to do that job and helped us out in so many way. He is amazing at what he does. Two ladies on reception are both lovely women and always so helpful. The manager over the food at wedding she was top class also. So had so many compliments on the food and the service. Amazing hotel and beautiful ceremony room and reception room. Dean again thank you so much for making our day amazing.

When we went to view the Hillgrove Hotel and met with Dean the wedding co-ordinator we knew we were in good hands His knowledge and expertise put us at ease straight away. Dean was so easy to speak to, he ran everything so smoothly making it an amazing experience for us. Both Dean and his staff were so helpful and courteous to us and all of our guests. Dean's recommendations were extremely helpful and took alot of stess away from us so we were able to relax and enjoy our day. We received nothing but complements from our guests for all of his hard work

I want to say a huge thank you to Dean Coyne on coordinating our wedding day, from the moment we booked the Hillgrove Hotel he made everything so straightforward and painless. With such an incredible wedding package that covered everything from band, florist, decor, photographer and so much more!

We can't thank him enough and not only does he do his job incredibly well, he made the day stacks of craic too! From photo ideas to easing nerves. What more could you ask for!

11/10! Thank you Dean and thank you to all the staff at the Hillgrove Hotel!

Sincerest thanks,
Connor & Jemma Ruddy

As soon as we met Dean we knew we had found our venue, nothing else was going to compare and we definitely made the right decision! From start to finish, our wedding day was absolutely incredible. Everything ran so smoothly and we barely had to lift a finger – it truly felt like the day planned itself. The venue was stunning, but what really set it apart was the exceptional support we received from our wedding coordinator, Dean Coyne. Dean is phenomenal at what he does – his professionalism, attention to detail, and calm presence made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable.

Dean was the main reason we chose this venue, and we couldn’t be happier with that decision. He made sure every detail was handled perfectly, and thanks to him, we were able to relax and soak in every special moment. We are beyond grateful to Dean and the team for giving us the wedding day of our dreams.

We had our wedding at the Hillgrove and honestly, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. From start to finish everything was seamless. The staff went above and beyond for us and our guests- nothing was too much trouble and they made us feel well cared for. Especially Liz, she was amazing at helping to distract and entertain our daughter while getting photos.
The food was absolutely incredible, with so many guests still talking about how delicious it was (especially the soup, it's to die for)!!
The hotel itself was beautiful, but it was the warmth and professionalism of the team that really made our day so special. Every detail thought of and it meant we could just relax and enjoy ourselves knowing everything was in safe hands.
Also, a special mention to Dean the wedding coordinator. He was absolutely fantastic from the very first day we went for a wedding show around right up to the big day. He was always approachable, organised and calm, which really helped put us at ease. His attention to detail and reassuring presence made everything run smoothly and we genuinely couldn't do it without him.

We're so grateful to the Hillgrove for making our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more. We couldn't recommend them highly enough!

Connie and James

We had our wedding at the Hillgrove Hotel and it was nothing short of perfect – and that was down to both the amazing venue and Dean, the most incredible wedding coordinator we could have wished for. From the very first meeting right through to the big day itself, he looked after every single detail and made sure we felt completely at ease.

The Hillgrove itself was the perfect setting for us. We had never been before booking our wedding, and now we cannot wait to return. It is such a welcoming, family-friendly hotel with staff who are incredibly attentive and warm. The whole place feels more like being part of a family than just a guest, and that really made our celebrations extra special.

Dean is truly passionate about what he does and it shows in the outstanding quality of his work. The evening before our wedding, he even messaged us to say that if we were nervous, needed advice, or had any last-minute worries, we could call or text him at any time. That level of care is rare, and it meant so much. On the day itself, he was calm, organised, and had everything running flawlessly in the background so we could fully enjoy every moment. He even suggested fun games and creative touches during the reception and meal, which brought laughter, uniqueness, and joy to the day.

Dean didn’t just make us feel like another wedding on the list – he made us feel genuinely special. Combined with the warmth of the Hillgrove staff, we honestly felt like we were celebrating at home surrounded by people who cared as much about the day as we did ourselves. Many of our guests commented afterwards asking us where on earth we found Dean because they’d never seen a coordinator like him before.

Our wedding genuinely would not have been the wedding of our dreams without him and the Hillgrove team. Dean is not only an outstanding professional but truly a gentleman. Words can’t fully describe how grateful we are for everything he and the Hillgrove did to make our wedding the best day of our lives.

Many thanks to Dean and The Hillgrove Hotel from Elish & Michael

What can I say about the Hillgrove Hotel and Dean Coyne!! From the first time we met Dean he was absolutely brilliant. He was a wealth of knowledge and couldn't do enough for us. No question was a bother to him. From the day we booked our wedding with him he was all over it letting us know what we needed to do at each step along the way. On our wedding day he was very attentive, calm and also extremely organised.

I can truly say that selecting the Hillgrove Hotel for our wedding on August 9th was the best choice we could have made. From our initial meeting with Dean, it was clear that booking our event there was a great decision. The wedding packages offered by Dean are fantastic and significantly reduce the stress associated with the day. Ever since we made the reservation two years ago, Dean has always been available to answer any questions and provide assistance whenever needed. On our wedding day, Liz took care of us, and she was wonderful with everyone. Our celebration was incredibly special, and every staff member we interacted with was fantastic. Dean and the entire team consistently went above and beyond, making it the best day of our lives. Fidelma and Stephen x

We had the absolute pleasure of having Dean as our wedding coordinator at the Hillgrove Hotel on August 8th, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. From the very beginning, Dean made us feel like we were the most special couple ever to get married at the hotel. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he took all the stress out of the planning and the day itself. His warm personality, attention to detail, and genuine care made everything so easy and enjoyable for us.

The hotel itself was fantastic, great value, with food that was absolutely delicious. Guests were even offered second servings, which went down an absolute treat and really showed the generosity and thoughtfulness of the hotel.

Dean went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, and our guests are still talking about how brilliant he was. A highlight of the evening was the entertainment he provided with “Heads or Tails” – it was such great craic and brought so much laughter to the room. Dean truly made our wedding unforgettable, and we’ll always be grateful to Dean for making ur day so special.

Our wedding day was perfect from start to finish staff could not do enough for us. The food was amazing ceremony and reception room were beautifully decorated.We would highly recommend the Hillgrove for anyone planning a wedding and looking for the perfect venue you won't be disappointed 😊

Dear Dean & the team

We just wanted to say a huge thank you for everything you did to make our wedding day absolutely perfect. From start to finish, nothing was ever too much trouble your calm and friendly support made all the difference throughout the whole planning process.

You gave us such helpful advice, always guiding us with honesty about what we needed and what we really didn’t, something we appreciated more than you know! You truly went above and beyond in every way. The service & food was amazing I could not fault anything. Our guests are still talking about how good a day they had.

One moment we’ll never forget is you running in to fix my dress as I walked up the aisle, such a small gesture, but it meant the world in that nerve-wracking moment. That kind of care and attention sums you up completely.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to help us plan and enjoy our day. Oh and Liz, your craic kept us in entertainment the night before the wedding and the day off. Thank you both for all your help and professionalism it was outstanding.

Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts. Definitely the best wedding venue xx

The Hillgrove hotel was the first
place we visited for a wedding show around as soon as we got engaged. After meeting with Dean we just knew straight away that this was the place we would love to have our wedding reception! Dean was so professional and friendly throughout our whole expierence from the beginning until the lead up to the big day. We went for a package that included everything! We thought this was great as we didn’t have to go booking our main suppliers separately as Dean took care of all that, definitely took all the stress from us. We had an amazing wedding day with thanks too all the amazing friendly staff that work in this hotel, nothing was every a problem for anyone. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed their day and complimented the delicious food. We were so delighted that we chose the Hillgrove and would love to do the experience all over again!! Thanks again!!

We got married at the hill grove hotel. Dean was an absolute dream to deal with when booking the wedding. He made everything go as smooth and less stressful as you want. also on the build up very helpful, quick responses etc. Would defo recommend this as your venue. Mention for Breda as well, absolutely unreal couldn’t do enough on the day for us so good at their jobs.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Dean as our wedding coordinator, and I honestly don’t know how we would have done it without him. From the very first meeting, Dean was organized, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day everything we dreamed of. He has an incredible ability to keep things running smoothly while making you feel completely calm and cared for.

During the whole time, Dean always responded to any of our questions promptly and was always happy to answer any questions we had.

On the wedding day itself, Dean was everywhere he needed to be—keeping us on schedule, and making sure even the smallest details were perfect. Thanks to him, we were able to relax and truly enjoy the day knowing everything was in safe hands.

Our friends and family even commented on how wonderful the day was.
Dean’s warmth, experience, and dedication made such a difference, and we can’t recommend him highly enough.

From the moment we met Dean everything felt right. His professional approach in our first meeting sealed the deal for me really. He told us everything the hillgrove could do for us, handed me an A4 piece of paper full of questions and said if you can answer yes to all these then that place is your venue. He didn’t try force the hillgrove on us and with that everything he offered us shone through on the day and not one thing over promised.

The hillgrove and Dean cover so much in preparing for your wedding the whole journey to our wedding was such a chill experience. Any concern, query or change i had for Dean was either met with a yes or a suggestion but never a No. He knows his industry too well to not listen to his advice.


Fast forward to the day, it was a wash out the rain never stopped not once we didn’t let this effect our day and Dean thrived off making sure everything still ran smoothly for us and it did! He worked tirelessly on the day constantly checking in on us that everything was ok. The support he then has from the team around him to back everything up, honestly our day couldn’t have been better.

The food was amazing, especially the roulade! The staff were friendly, attentive, professional and part of the party. The day just flowed and we’ll never forget it.

Speak to Dean, book your wedding you won’t regret it!

We knew the day we viewed the hotel and met Dean that this was the hotel we wanted for our wedding. The package we got was amazing. We already followed some of the package suppliers on social media so choosing the suppliers we wanted wasnt a difficult task and having the hotel deal with those suppliers freed us up to do other wedding tasks and relieved a bit of stress.
Dean and his team were incredibly easy to deal with. Nothing was ever too much trouble and any queries were responded to quickly. A special mention for Breda, who i tortured about the room bookings, no request was ever too much and she was great at providing updates.
I found out i was pregnant a few weeks before the wedding and i need to give a massive thank you to Dean and his team for their subtlety and ensuring none of my guests found out - my glass was always filled out of sight (with shloer so it looked like i had champagne) and non alcoholic cocktails were on hand.
Our guests raved about how amazing the food was and how good the flow of the day was.
I genuinely cant imagine having my wedding anywhere else. Dean made sure the day we had planned went perfectly. Any couples that book their wedding in the Hillgrove are in safe hands with Dean and will have the most amazing day and stressfree run up to it!!

What an unbelievable wedding that we where extremely lucky to have. Dean and the team saved our wedding day. Our venue had cancelled 2 months prior to our big day and Dean stepped in and saved it. Not only that but the lead up to our big day and the day itself went without any issues. The food on the day was amazing so many of our guests have complimented it and no one was left hungry - so thank you to the chef and their team. Everything went so smoothly and we still are getting such lovely comments from our guests. Dean and the team had everything planned and sorted so well right down to helping me get my runners on lol. Words cannot express how grateful and how happy we are. We weren't fortunate enough to thank all the staff there but we are so grateful for all that yous done for us. Finally a massive thank you to Dean you were so accommodating to us and nothing was ever a problem (thanks for keeping my stress levels down lol) we will be forever grateful. Anika & Cian McGovern

The Hilgrove was absolutely amazing, dean and Liz and Johnathan I can't thank them enough, we had such a hard time leading up to our first wedding date and had to prospone to a different date the night before our wedding and everyone was amazing and helped us so much, can't thank them enough they made our wedding day amazing.

We couldn't praise Dean, Liz and the rest of the staff at the Hillgrove any more if we tried - their help, input, ideas etc throughout the whole build-up, and the day itself were way beyond what we could've hoped for. They made sure that we had the best wedding day, possible! It all exceeded our best hopes for the day and that's down to them - we couldn't recommend them more!

From the moment we went to view the Hillgrove, we loved it! The set up and decor were fab and Dean was so informative and friendly. Once we booked, Dean kept in touch throughout the months for anything that needed to be paid or planned and he answered any questions we had in a timely manner. On the wedding day, we were well looked after by both Dean and Liz, they were both in and out making sure everything was okay for us. The rest of the staff were also very friendly and helpful. The set up and food was amazing and all of our guests commented on how great everything was. We had such an amazing wedding day and night and so happy we picked the hillgrove for it!

We celebrated our wedding reception at the Hillgrove Hotel & Spa on the 26th of April, and I still can’t find the words that do justice to how truly magical the day was. From the moment we arrived, it felt as though the entire hotel had been wrapped up just for us — every smile, every detail, every thoughtful touch made us feel so loved and cared for.

The food was simply out of this world. We knew it would be good, but it completely surpassed all expectations. Every dish was served hot, bursting with flavour, and in such generous portions that not only did everyone have seconds — I’m pretty sure a few guests had thirds! It’s one of the most common compliments we’ve heard since the wedding.

The staff… I have never experienced service quite like it. They were attentive in a way that made you feel like you were the only people in the world who mattered that day. Quietly topping up glasses, checking in without ever intruding, noticing the little things before we even had to ask — it was perfection.

And then there’s Dean, the wedding coordinator — what an absolute gem of a person. Dean, you were born for this job. You brought such calm, reassurance, and warmth to the whole planning process. It wasn’t just professional — it was personal the service you provided. I was still messaging you with table plan changes 15 minutes before we arrived at the reception, and you just took it all in your stride with a smile and a thumbs up reply on WhatsApp lol. We asked you to play a video before we entered our reception, again this was a ‘no biggie’ moment. Your patience, organisation, and kindness didn’t just make our day run smoothly — they made it stress-free and joyful. You are a godsend, and we will always be grateful for you.

To everyone at the Hillgrove — thank you from the very bottom of our hearts. You didn’t just host our wedding; you became part of it. You created an atmosphere of love, joy, and celebration that we and our guests will never forget. You gave us memories that will be cherished for a lifetime, and for that, we will always sing your praises.

If anyone is looking for a wedding venue that doesn’t just meet expectations but far exceeds them — that serves food guests will rave about, service that feels like family, and a team that will make your day as important to them as it is to you — then the Hillgrove Hotel & Spa is the only place to go.

We had our wedding at The Hillgrove on the 11th of April 2025 and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, the team went above and beyond to make our day truly unforgettable.

A special shoutout has to go to Dean, our incredible wedding coordinator. His attention to detail, calm professionalism, and friendly nature made the whole planning process so easy and enjoyable. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he made sure everything ran smoothly on the day right down to the smallest details.

The venue itself is stunning – beautiful interiors and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The food was exceptional, the service was amazing, and every member of staff we interacted with was friendly and helpful.

We’ve had so many people tell us how much they enjoyed the day, and we couldn’t agree more. Thank you to Dean and the entire Hillgrove team for giving us the perfect wedding day – we’ll be forever grateful!

Highly recommend!

We had our wedding at the Hillgrove Hotel on 21/3/25 … it was perfect!!!

Mark & Kim

No words can describe how amazing Dean and his amazing team are, from the moment I first booked my viewing appointment to my last dance the hillgrove where with me every step of the way. Dean went above and beyond with everything nothing was to small or to big, he was full of guidance and wisdom. Without the hillgrove my wedding would have been a lot more stressful and I’m forever grateful I got my perfect day.

Got married at Hillgrove hotel on 13th March and honestly don't even no where to start, all the staff from the first look where amazing. Dean was just perfect always there when I needed a question answered no matter how silly I thought it was he always got back to us asap. Dean is just incredable and such a credit to the Hillgrove. He made our wedding day go so smoothly without any hiccups, even when my veil broke he took it off and fixed it straight away. Dean and his team are first class and would highly recommend anyone looking to get married to have a look here first, the hotel is gorgeous but the staff are even better, can't wait to return.

We cannot thank Dean, Liz and their team enough for making our wedding at the Hillgrove Hotel an absolute dream! From the moment we started planning, they were with us every step of the way—professional, attentive, and always going above and beyond to ensure every detail was just perfect.

Having our ceremony in the hotel was the best decision, Dean and Liz made the entire experience seamless. The setup was stunning, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and everything ran like clockwork. They thought of every little detail, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy our day without a single worry.

One of the most important aspects for us was ensuring our guests travelling from afar had comfortable accommodations. Dean and Liz handled it flawlessly. From arranging rooms to ensuring everyone was well taken care of, they made the entire process so easy. Our guests are still raving about the food, incredible hospitality and how smoothly everything was coordinated!

The Hillgrove Hotel was the perfect venue, but it was Dean and Liz who made it extraordinary. Their passion, professionalism, and kindness made all the difference, and we will forever be grateful for their dedication to making our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more.

If you are looking for a wedding team that truly cares, look no further. Dean and Liz, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our day so special!

Every person who attended the wedding said it was the best wedding they have been too the food was amazing and they will be returning.❤️

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!

When Chris and I visited the Hillgrove, it was the first venue we saw, and thanks to Dean’s professionalism and enthusiasm, we booked right away. The wedding package exceeded our expectations, and it was so convenient to book our photographer, band, DJ, and cake through the Hillgrove. The menu tasting night was incredible, and the wedding day itself was flawless. Dean and the team handled everything seamlessly, allowing us to relax and enjoy the day. The photo dash, suggested by Dean, was such good craic and gave us photos with all our guests before the meal. All our friends and family were impressed with the food. From the professional suppliers to the beautiful cake, everything was perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for more. We absolutely loved our wedding day and highly recommend the Hillgrove! Thanks so much!

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.

Could not fault Dean or the staff at the Hillgrove for helping us to have the best day ever on our wedding day! From the first day we went to view the Hillgrove Sharon made us felt at ease straight away and it was the first place we went to that made us feel like they cared about what we wanted our wedding day to be like. Throughout the whole planning process Dean was amazing, nothing was too big of an ask, he was brilliant at giving us ideas to think about that we included in our wedding (dinner dash and gin bar were recommendation Dean made that our guests LOVED) and he was always very quick to respond to any queries. On the day everything went seamlessly and everything was set exactly as we asked for. The 200+ guests we had said the food was the best food they had had at a wedding ever and everyone throughly enjoyed their day. We have no regrets booking with the Hillgrove and honestly had an amazing day! Thank you Dean and all the staff!!

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!

We had the most amazing day for our wedding day. All the staff couldn’t have been more helpful and a special thanks to Dean for making it extra special for us. He was there throughout the whole planning of our wedding right up until the day of the wedding. He made sure we were looked after all the time and everything ran smoothly! Could not fault the hillgrove hotel for anything! Highly recommend!

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.

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.

How can I even put into words how amazing the service we got from Dean and the team at the Hillgrove hotel?! We got married last Saturday and everything from the moment we went in to view was just top quality and we were made feel so special. Nothing was too much to ask for and Dean and his team went out of their way to help out in every way they could. The amount of compliments we got about everything was insane. It wasn’t even a question, we had to book our day 2 functions there too. Thank you all so so much for everything you did for us on our special day. We couldn’t have asked for a better day. To Dean and all the crew, thank you thank you thank you!’

Our special day was made perfect by Dean and his wonderful team at the Hillgrove Hotel. Nothing was too much trouble and they were so receptive of any ideas we had and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Choosing to have our wedding here we the best choice we made and we were left with cherished memories for years to come. Thank you Hillgrove Hotel!!

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.

Best day of our lives... Hillgrove Hotel is outstanding for any future couples looking for package weddings as this hotel ticked all the boxes and more... no stone was unturned and from the very start of our planning we knew we were in the best hands... those hands being the hillgrove hotel wedding co ordinator Dean Coyne who we cannot thank enough for everything Dean asked us both what we wanted from the start to which we said good food and good music which we got ten fold.. Dean single handed prepared our whole day from our wedding cermoney to helping choose a sole minister, band, photographer, florist, photobooth, reception music, cermoney music which was such a relief to have all this looked after in our package. There was no stress in our planning as Dean had everything taken care of.. He is so professional and you can genuinely see he loves his job and that shows in his attention to detail. Dean we can't thank you enough for what you did for us and made the whole experience so enjoyable.
To the rest of the hillgrove team we would like to personally thank Erin, Liz, all the staff on the day and night and we have to give a shout out to the head chef Paul who served up the most delicious food and all our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the cannapys at the pre receiption and the main meal which Was top class.
The hillgrove accommodated our kids also by keeping them busy in the Cinema room which was great for the parents at intervals. There is nothing we could fault about our wedding day if anything it blew our expectations out of the water from stunning decor throughout the hotel to food and fantastic suppliers it was just phenomenal.

Thank you all

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!

Our wedding couldn’t have went any smoother at The hillgrove. From the minute we met with Dean, we knew where we wanted to have our wedding. Dean walked us through what the hotel had to offer and listened to what we wanted for our day. Nothing was a problem, he was patient and very supportive throughout all the planning and was at hand when we needed advice. Dean has a relaxed, easy going personality and is also a perfectionist. He made us both feel so special throughout the day.
All the staff were so accommodating and good craic, the food was amazing, nobody had an empty glass throughout the meal. Our guests made great use of the facilities all weekend from the pool, spa and kids club.
We highly recommend The Hillgrove to host your big day.
Susan & Mark

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. 😊

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.

Dean was so professional throughout, was always on hand with any questions or requests we had, made the whole reception wedding planning come together so easily and stress free we couldn’t of asked 4 anymore from the hillgrove or dean himself.. the day was just perfect.. our guest are still talking about how amazing the day was..

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.

Dean
Thank you so much for everything.
What can we say you were amazing from the day we frist met you, nothing was ever to big or to small, you made the whole wedding experience so easy and stress free I couldn't imagine planning a wedding with anyone else by our side just outstanding at your job. So from the bottom of our hearts thank you so much to you and your fantastic team we had the most amazing day from start to finish. Our families that travelled had a fabulous stay at your stunning hotel with your very friendly staff. Thank you all so much.

Amanda & Mark

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.

The best day we could of asked for. Service was amazing, food was delicious could not fault anything.

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 got married in Hillgrove hotel on 28/6/24 , we had an amazing day ,we didn’t have a wedding co ordinator as he was getting married , but the food and beverage manager went above and beyond for us , only for her we would be lost , our cake went missing after the wedding night we didn’t get a taste of it after long process we were told a member of staff let it fall and put it in bin and we had to wait about 2-3 wks to get reimbursed some of the cost , some guests item got mislaid in hotel and were never found and when reported no one seemed to care , wedding co ordinator hadn’t the decency to contact us when he returned back to work , wedding package is not worth the money as we had to put hundreds to each item included in package , and to top it off we were offered a candy cart or a night stay for our 1st anniversary ,so we decided we would do the cart ourselves and take the night away for our first anniversary to discover when we recieved voucher it’s only Sunday to Thursday which is no good to us as we would both have to take day off work for it and when we contacted hotel they said if we pay more money we could stay Friday or Saturday night , I think they get well enough and we at least deserved more after everything that happened we spent full wkend there and spent a lot of money from Thursday to Sunday

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 and the Hillgrove hotel where absolutely amazing! Dean's constant follow up and attention to detail was flawless! We got a wonderful package but what was more incredible was Dean's flexibility in working in our special changes or requests to our day. Dean is a very kind and caring professional who has a great ability to put himself in the Bridge and grooms shoes. We were extremely lucky we chose the Hillgrove and even more so that we had Dean ad our wedding Coordinator

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.

Dean was an absolute dream to work with. From the moment we sat down with him to book our wedding nothing was a problem. Dean responded usually within hours of an email we sent him. He knows literally everything there is to know about weddings; the perfect place to get a photo, the timings, the usual things that could go wrong to name a few. The feedback from the guests at our wedding was it was one of the best weddings they were at, the service was outstanding (we had 200guests), plenty of food and a very well stocked bar. We would definitely recommend the Hillgrove for a wedding and the support from Dean throughout the whole wedding planning and the wedding day was outstanding.

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!

Everything was brilliant, money well spent and a great 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 had the best day ever at our wedding in the Hillgrove. We can't thank the team enough for everything they did, extremely professional, helpful and full of craic.
From the minute we went to just have a look around to checking out after the wedding we couldn't fault a thing. Dean wasn't pushy when we were looking and answered even the most random questions. He went over and above with everything and made the entire planning process so simple. Never did we doubt making the decision to have our big day at the Hillgrove and would do the whole thing over again!
On the day we were looked after by Dean, Liz and Kaylon and they were all fabulous! Our guests also had the best day and everyone commented on the staff, the venue and the food. The food was so good that some guest had to have a power nap before they could enjoy the party.
Thank you for everything!

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.

We can not think Dean and the Hillgrove staff enough for their service and hospitality on the day of our wedding and on the build up to it. Dean made the entire process so easy and straightforward and the day could not have went any smoother.

The food was exceptional and the feedback from all our guests was the exact same. It was pleasure working with Dean and can not recommend him and the Hotel enough for ther service and attention to detail.

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 ❤️

Our day was the 12.01.2024 and what a day it was dean and his team made it everything we wanted and more from the food till everything in between yet again thank you's all so much specially dean and everyone else that worked so hard with us till make our big day that extra bit special

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!

Where do I even begin writing a review about our wedding at The Hillgrove - words will never be able to express how unforgettable and beautiful our wedding day was.

Being from Monaghan originally and living in London, my husband and I knew that a central venue in Monaghan was exactly what we wanted. Although we considered other options, as soon as we met Dean and saw the hotel, we instantly knew that this would be our be wedding venue.
Dean was extremely accommodating and genuine from the very start. He showed us package options, talked us through the day and made us feel like VIPs.
We were worried about planning our wedding from London, but Dean made this the easiest part of our planning process. He was available whenever we needed from Zoom calls, to emails to phone conversations- his service was second to none.
Dean and his team worked around our travel schedule and accommodated us for menu tastings and planning in the lead up to the big day.
Dean is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and honestly the best in the business.
No problem was too big or small, everything was dealt with professionally and instantly.
Our wedding meal was absolutely fabulous and no one went hungry during the day. Between the church and meal, Dean even offered to get me a toasted sandwich or anything else - just amazing service.
The bridal suite was beautiful and the champagne breakfast in bed the morning after was such a lovely touch.

A special mention to Breda who made booking rooms and communicated professionally during the whole process when sorting accommodation for our guests especially those from overseas - raving reviews from our guests.
Thank you to Caolan and Liz for making the bridal party entrances possible and for your help during the speeches and evening part of our wedding.

Everybody had the best few days and we had the most magical day of our life, a thank you will never be enough!
The Hillgrove Hotel will always have a huge place in our hearts.
Nicola & Adam

Fantastic venue and professional and well trained staff. Excellent menu and above all, exceptional support from our wedding co-ordinator Dean Coyne. The care and attention we received was more than we expected and nothing was a problem for Dean. We enjoyed every second of our special day and this was due to the amazing team in the Hillgrove. I would absolutely recommend this hotel for a wedding venue.

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

From the moment we met Dean we knew we were in the best hands possible. From the get go Dean was so enthusiastic, helpful and professional. The packages that were on offer were phenomenal, something to suit everyone. We were given a list of suppliers so we were not short of choices.
From the moment we secured the date, Dean took care of everything with our chosen suppliers which eased so much of our stress. Several times throughout the wedding planning it felt like it was too easy and stress free, I kept feeling like I was forgetting something but that was simply due to Dean having everything under control and taking that stress away so we could focus on other things for the wedding.
In terms of communication Dean was fantastic. Nothing was ever too much trouble. He kept in touch constantly throughout the wedding planning process and all emails were quickly responded to. We always felt we could email at any time even if the questions felt 'silly?.
There's simply not enough I can say to put into words how truly amazing Dean was on the day of the wedding. He thought of absolutely everything. His positive energy put both of us at ease on the day and we felt completely taken care of. He was always close by if there was anything we needed on the day and on the day after the wedding.
We can honestly say we don't think we would have enjoyed the wedding planning process 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 credit to the hotel and any couple that decides on the Hillgrove Hotel as their venue will be in the best hands possible.
Dean, we can't thank you enough for all you have done for us on the buildup to and on our special day. You really blew all expectations out of the water. We wish you all the best in the future and every success, it is so deserved.

Erin and Michael 25/11/23

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

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!

We couldn't of asked for more. Our first day viewing the venue we had to wait around about an hour due to the previous couple being late, im so glad we didnt leave Dean was so apologetic and couldn't have done more for us giving us extra rooms to make up for the wait. The service from Dean, Rebecca & other staff was exceptional. The food was a solid 10/10 ive never had gravy like it. We used the all inclusive package and it took so much stress out of it all. The venue helped us sort band, flowers, makeup, music and everything. The photographer they reccomended has our albums out a few weeks after the wedding no messing. Between the venue, staff and food it was stunning. The reception food and drink was the best selection ive ever seen at a wedding basically no one had to buy a drink before going into the wedding room. Nothing was an issue anything awkward wasn't a problem. I literally recommend the Hillgrove to everyone and to top it off it was very reasonably priced you couldn't ask for more.

We had the pleasure of planning our special day with Dean at the Hillgrove. Dean was wonderful to deal with, so very accommodating and nothing is any trouble (plus he's good craic!!)
Dean and his team made the whole day run super smoothly - always someone on hand to help if and when needed, a fantastic bunch of people to deal with. The staff are very helpful and completely hands on - amazing customer service.
The venue itself is beautiful and is a lovely space to get married. We loved the idea of a separate room for the ceremony and our own drinks reception area to keep all our guests together, but still have plenty of space. Lovely gardens off to the side of the venue also which were perfect for family pics on the big day.
We?d like to thank Dean for making our day so special - he is amazing at what he does and we cannot thank him enough for making our special day that bit more bit special!
If you?re after a wedding coordinator and a team who can make your special vision a reality, Dean and his team are the ones!
From,
The new Mr & Mrs McCartan :)

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 ????????????????

We recently had our wedding reception at the Hillgrove and can not say enough good things about this hotel!! Dean was amazing from start to finish, his advice was invaluable and nothing was ever too much trouble. Everything went so smoothly in the run up and on the day.

The ballroom was absolutely stunning on the day, and was all decorated by the hotel with zero stress on our end.

The food was brilliant, the quality and quantity was outstanding. We also had a menu tasting a few months before the wedding which was a lovely touch.

Thank you to everyone at the Hillgrove for making our big day so special!!

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

Where to begin ? as an indecisive bride who had visited many Venues some very lovely ones of course but I did wonder why I was still google searching for other venues. After having come across the stunning Hillgrove we booked our first show around which was done by the lovely Sharon. The minute we entered into the Hillgrove it was just Wow , we did of course have another few looks at the Hillgrove and I did again wonder why we kept going back that's when we also met the fabulous Dean . After having found our perfect wedding reception location and booking our wedding day at the Hillgrove the service was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. Nothing was ever too much and everything was absolutely perfect. Dean could not have been any more amazing than he was. We met Dean to finalise our final detail, and I arrived with a list the length of my arm ( quite possibly longer) with all the wee details that I had hoped to have at my wedding reception and I wasn't surprised when Dean had every last detail ticked off and more!! it was just perfect. He honestly
Couldn't have done enough for us, and ensured everything was coordinated smoothly throughout the day. All our guests are still talking about the food it was stunning , and not one of our guests left hungry ( we lost a small few guests after dinner due to food coma!!) I do always remember Dean telling me that none of our guests will leave hungry and that he was not lying! Many of our guests were at the Hillgrove for the first time for our wedding and they all commented on the how stunning the hotel and ballroom was with the stunning decor.
The whole experience was just so lovely. And all the wee extra things that the hotel do.
The wedding menu tasting evening is just one of them , we had a lovely night at that it was a nice wee experience before the wedding and it was great just to get to experience exactly how things were going to look on the day and it did not disappoint!
I could not recommend Dean enough , definitely worth going along booking a visit to see for yourself and meeting with Dean. If I could do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing.

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.

We had the best wedding day at the Hillgrove Hotel. All the guests were very impressed, especially by the quality of the food. The only let down was the organising of the cutting of the cake, it seemed to be forgotten about. But otherwise, everything ran smoothly and the staff were very helpful.

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.

Where do we start, Dean and the team where outstanding. From the moment of our first appointment viewing in the Hillgrove we knew our wedding was going to be everything we could of dreamt off.

Dean is very passionate in his work (this is true to see), he is professional and extremely kind (we forgot our baby formula and he personally went himself and grabbed us some)

We went for a humanist service, our service was held in the hillgrove, the room set up was magical, when I walked in I couldn't believe my eyes Dean had literally brought my imagine to life. Dean also helped organise a surprise for my groom, our little boy coming up the aisle on a toy remote car, it was breathtaking, floods of happy tears

Our drinks reception was amazing, the atmosphere was incredible Along side with our cake setup, vocalist and guitarist.

Evening meal: The room layout was incredible, noting was a problem for Dean and the team the set up for the dinner tables was my own hand made design (I dropped of the Friday evening )and it was outstanding on the day. From the drinks to the food it was unbelievable. Every guest remarked on how good the food tasted & the wine. Liz was also fabulous checking in on us and the guests

We added our own personal touch with glow sticks to come into our bridal party song, and with the help of Dean and the team the room light up and the atmosphere was unbelievable.

It was all the extra surprises made it feel so special, even when we went for breakfast the morning after our wedding we where greeted with champagne, we loved this touch

We booked two Nights to stay in the bridal suite, and being a last night person Which I am , I forgot to book the spa, (we got two full body massages, very relaxing) the hotel organised this for us, I mean nothing was a bother, treated so well .

Everything was made easy for our wedding, anything we asked for we got, I would highly recommend the hillgrove I loved every minute of our wedding, can't wait to go back for our anniversary

I cried thanking Dean after the wedding , because he really give us the best day, he organised everything and guided us towards the best day

Thank you again To Dean & the hillgrove staff/ hotel outstanding

Everything was perfect. The room was decorated so nicely

Having visited a fair few venues, we knew the Hillgrove was the one for us the second we walked in on their wedding fayre day. The hotel has been recently refurbished with new carpets, new interior decorations in the ballroom and the most spectacular set up for the perfect wedding day. We had a short engagement, only 6 months, however, this was no problem to Dean and his team. Due to such short notice, we were struggling with a few suppliers, but the Hillgrove have an excellent selection of suppliers to choose from and we were able to book our band and flourist through the hotel. The wedding tasting menu evening is brilliant, it's a great buzz with other couples and a chance to sample some lovely food by their very talented chef! Dean and the hotel made sure our day had everything we wanted, no questions asked. The private entrance for the reception is perfect, something a lot of other hotels do not have! This reception room leads straight into the ballroom for dinner, so no delay in guests moving across. The food was absolutely fantastic and plenty of it, all of our guests were delighted with the food and service they received. Guests never had to ask for anything as staff were coming round with extra gravy, potatoes, veg etc. The bar staff were great, it was never empty and they were always very busy but no one waited long for a drink. The bridal suite is lovely and the champagne breakfast really tops it off, I recommend staying a second night to make use of the spa facilities as we did, they were also excellent. The day after we had a buffet in the bar for a few people that had stayed over, this was fabulous, I would highly recommend this, pizza, goujons, sausages and chips, plenty to go around once again. Dean is amazing at what he does, he responds very quickly to any emails and provides solutions to any bumps along the way. He was so dedicated to the sure we had the best day, I would do it all over again and change nothing!

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 ??

Hotel were very accommodating: Dean offered advice regarding photograph locations and were flexible with numbers up to the last few days.
We received very positive feedback from our guests regarding service and food.

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.

We cannot thank Dean enough for all he done for us on the lead up and on the day of our wedding. We had moved our wedding forward and undecided with dates at times and yet Dean was very understanding and helpful and had put my mind at ease when I decided to go ahead with our wedding day in October just past in June this year, it was a short space of time for planning and organising everything but I never felt under pressure or stressed as Dean had everything under control and listened to what we wanted for our special day. The staff at the hotel where just amazing on the day and we can't thank them enough. The food was a big talking point among out guests who where blown away by each course and the service was just second to none. Dean is just an amazing person who is wonderful at his job and a delight to deal with no job is too big or too small. I would highly recommend The Hillgrove Hotel for their wedding day and there is nothing I can fault or that I would change about my own special day it just was the best day ever.

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.

We had our magical wedding day in the Hillgrove Hotel on Friday the 30th of September 2022. It was a dream come true all thanks to Dean and his wonderful team. The help and support we received from Dean throughout our whole wedding journey was amazing. Dean ensured our wedding experience was stress free as possible as he was always available to help and reassure us with any worries and issues that occurred. The Hillgrove Hotel is absolutely beautiful, from the minute we entered the hotel we both knew straight away we wanted to have our wedding reception in this modern, elegant, bright and sophisticated venue.

Both ourselves and our guests were absolutely blown away by the standard of service and food. Over the past few weeks we have received nothing but fantastic reviews from our guests regarding the exceptional experience they received while staying at the Hillgrove.

We are beyond grateful to have had Dean as our wedding coordinator while planning our dream wedding. We would highly recommend all newly engaged couples to visit Dean and his team as they will not be disappointed. We would love to do it all over again. The most perfect day from start to finish!

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 recently got married in the Hillgrove Hotel and we could not recommend it highly enough.
Dean, our Wedding Co-ordinator was fantastic. He has a real passion for his job and his attention to detail made our Wedding day, the best day that we could have wished for! Nothing was ever too much hassle and he ensured everything ran smoothly from start to finish.
The service and food were exceptional- all our guests couldn't compliment it enough. All the staff were very friendly and attentive.
We really can't thank Dean and the staff at the Hillgrove enough for all their help!

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

Wow what a wedding we had at the hillgrove hotel. We had seen images posted on Instagram by weddings online of the venue an fell head over heels. We booked a show around with their wedding co-ordinator Dean and we were immediately sold. Not only was the venue exactly the place i dreamed about, but Dean was the complete package. Dean made everything so easy from start to finish. Every single detail he had to perfection from table dressing, reception drink area even down to making sure my dress train was perfect when walking down the aisle. Not one single job was too big a task for him. Dean was always immediately responsive throughout our whole process from booking to wedding day and even after. Booking the hillgrove you will not be disappointed especially if dean is there to look after you.
Classy, elegant, fun sophisticated your dream day all in one place is how I can best describe the service & venue.

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 !!!

We had our wedding at the Hillgrove hotel recently, from the start of planning to the wedding day the staff were amazing , dean went above and beyond for us he was great to deal with , we loved our wedding day we had so many compliments on the food and decor , would highly recommend , thanks to the Hillgrove hotel , Keeley & Paul Lennon

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 in The Hillgrove Hotel a few weeks ago and it was honestly the most perfect day! From the first moment that we met the hotel team, they stood out from all the rest, and throughout the decision-making process for our venue, we just kept coming back to The Hillgrove.

Our coordinator, Dean Coyne, and all the staff are so lovely, friendly, attentive and accommodating, and they made the whole process so enjoyable and relaxed. No ask was too big or small, and they made everyone feel at home for the couple of days we were there.

You get amazing value for money, and everything Dean and his team do is with the client very much at the forefront. Dean also does a wonderful job of ensuring that the day runs as smoothly as possible, and the staff really look after the guests and make sure that every need is catered to.

The hotel is a beautiful venue, and the team decorate it so wonderfully with the hotel's own decor, so much so that we had to get very little of our own decor. Everything is located in the one section of the hotel, and is completely separate to the rest of the hotel guests so it almost feels like your own private venue which is so nice!

Our guests were blown away by the service provided by this hotel, and we ourselves could not speak highly enough about it. If you're looking for excellent service, exquisite food, an exceptional and enthusiastic coordinator and genuinely lovely staff, we would highly recommend choosing The Hillgrove Hotel. You won't be disappointed. Dean and co., thanks so much for everything and for making our day so special! Kevin and ?rlaith

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.

Hi,
We would like to start off with how beautiful the Hillgrove Hotel is , this was our 4th venue to visit, when we walked through the doors into reception we instantly had a great feeling for this hotel.
Our wedding day from start to finish was everything we wanted and more!
This was all down to Dean our wedding coordinator and his wonderful team, everything we wished for we got with no issues which made our experience even better, compared to other venues that we visited first the Hillgrove Hotel just offered us so much more and we just knew before leaving on our first visit that this was the perfect venue for us.
We got married on 27th July 2022 and this was our 4th date due to Covid restrictions, every date was changed with no problems and everything went so smoothly.
Dean kept in contact with us regularly to make sure everything was in place and how we wanted it , our guests were delighted with the service and everyone commented on how beautiful the food was.
That day when we arrived Dean met us with a red carpet laid out and helped us out of the wedding car and handed us champagne which instantly made us feel welcome then for photos Dean lifted my veil up in the air and made it look like the wind was blowing it which was a lovely touch for our photos.
We also extended our stay and had our day after the wedding in the hotel with music and a buffet for a few family and friends and this was great not having to pack up the next morning, the next day was great to catch up with everyone it was nice and relaxing again all down to the service of the hotel.
So thanks again to the Hillgrove Hotel, Dean and his team for making our special day a dream day it was amazing! X

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.

We had our wedding in the hillgrove Hotel and Spa booked from 2018. With covid we postponed from 2021 to 2022. With changing dates Dean was so helpful and always prompt at answering all calls and emails. We had our day on 15th July 2022 and it was the best day ever. Hotel was so accomdating especially with the majority of our wedding party staying. The food was outstanding, attention to detail was second to none and most importantly Dean was there throughout making sure everything went seamlessly. It honestly was the best day and all our guest commented on how fantastic the hillgrove Hotel was. We've had many say it was the best wedding they've ever been to. I highly recommend booking your wedding here.

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.

Absolutely brilliant! I cannot recommend this hotel enough. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect and it was.
From the very start of our stay until the moment we left, we felt at home and comfortable.
Our day could not have happened without the help from Dean. Feedback from our guests has been well over par specifically when it came to how smoothly everything has been ran. 10/10, 5 stars and more.

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

Due to covid we had to re-arrange our wedding. So when we contacted The Hillgrove to see if they could accommodate our wedding in 2022, we were delighted they had a date that suited us. The Hillgrove would be local to both our families, so we knew the level of service we would receive. We met with Dean various times before our wedding and the advice and recommendations he gave us really put our mind at ease. He was amazing from start to finish on our wedding day. The food on the day, was amazing! We had so many of our guests come to us to say how much they enjoyed the meal. The venue was beautiful. Couldn't recommend Dean and his team enough. Thanks for an amazing day! Shane & Ashlene, May 2022.

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.

Dean could not have done enough for me and John he was so flexible with our plans and gave us inspiration. We felt so relaxed on the day Dean and the team where fantastic dealt with any last minute changes made us feel so special. I have to say a special thanks to Liz she was so welcoming and managed everything for us so we could just enjoy our day. Thank you so so much Hillgrove wedding team the food, Service and staff are top class and we would recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a venue.

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

We got married just over a month ago and we can't thank The Hillgrove Hotel and their staff enough especially to Dean Coyne who is just brilliant at his job. Any worries or queries we had were answered straight away by Dean. He really does go that extra mile. All the staff were very helpful and friendly the food was amazing. We couldn't recommend The Hillgrove Hotel and Dean highly enough. We couldn't have chosen a better venue to celebrate our day. Thank you

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!

We could not fault the Hillgrove from start to finish. Amazing experience fantastic hotel great staff so friendly and helpful. Dean the wedding manager words can't describe how much help and effort he goes to helping each couple and the day he provides for them from start to finish 5 stars all round . Well deserved award they should win. Dean is a credit to the hotel. Wishing all the new couples all the best the won't be disappointed in any way with the Hillgrove. Amazing experience overall

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

All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Dean our wedding coordinator, from the beginning was so helpful and nothing was a problem. The food was amazing and our guests are still talking about it. Great location , function room and garden and the little touches for anyone to have their special day. I would recommend the Hillgrove to anyone interested in getting married.

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

From start to finish the hill grove was a dream venue for us, nothing was ever to much for them. The room was absolutely perfect in ever way, the meal is still being talked about by our guests as the best meal they have EVER had at a wedding, we had booked another venue but straight away booked the hill grove after attending there wedding open day and speaking with them, Dean is an absolute credit to the hill grove, he was always there to answer all our stupid questions we had and never once made us feel anything other than the most important couple in the world, Dean made our day totally unforgettable and we will always be great full to him and the hill grove hotel for everything they did for us, without a doubt this is the wedding venue of the year and Dean is one of a kind!

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!!

We had our wedding here in October '21 and we honestly can't speak highly enough of the Hillgrove Hotel and Especially to Dean! Dean was such an absolute gem to work with! He made everything super easy to organise and with covid restrictions all over the place we were always kept in the loop which thankfully eased a lot of stress! Thank you so much Dean for making our day so special x Mr & Mrs Sherry x

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 had the most fantastic experience with the Hillgrove Hotel wedding team, namely Dean Coyne. We booked our wedding in April 2021 for September 2021 which was a relatively short period of time for planning. Coupled with this we were in the middle of a pandemic and the level of support and quality of service from the Hillgrove Hotel was second to none. In a time were nothing was certain we were regularly contacted by the hotel and updated on where things were and what restrictions were in place, always reassuring us. Dean did everything within his power to accommodate us and was really flexible with whatever was within his control.
The hotel, reception area and the wedding room itself are beautiful. Stunning lighting features and decorations throughout. All our guests commented on how fabulous the reception area and wedding room were. We had some children within our wedding guests and they had an amazing time with loads of facilities to keep them occupied.
We were blown away by how easy Dean made everything for us and there were so many things he just took care of without question. We have busy jobs and live in the UK so having very little to arrange for the venue was beyond what we were hoping for and we couldn't be more thankful to Dean and the wider team.
The day itself was managed to perfection. The Hillgrove team were so professional, friendly and accommodating. We had the best day, so relaxed for us and would highly recommend this venue to any of our friends or family.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the amazing service you all provide, we couldn't have chosen a better venue to celebrate our day!

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

Couldn't fault the hillgrove, even during such stressful times they made sure we had the best day possible. Our wedding coordinator Dean just went above and beyond for us.

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!

Seriously can not recommend this hotel enough! We booked for May and had to reschedule to Sep due to covid 19 but they were beyond accomodating and helpful!
We finally had our day on the 4th of September and it was absolutely amazing. Mary,Enda and all the staff couldn't have done more to ensure that we had the best day ever, which we absolutely did! The wedding packages are fantastic value and the food and service was something else! The function room is just stunning, everyone commented on it!
Special thanks to Breda and Sharon for their help in booking all the rooms and liasing with us throughout lock down and as mentioned thanks so much to Mary & Enda for not only ensuring our day ran smoothly but for really going above and beyond!

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.

We had our wedding here in December, the staff where excellent
Mary & Enda went out of their way to ensure that everything went smoothly for us.

All the our guest complimented the food, clean plates all around.
We couldn't have asked for more.

Would highly recommend

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 had our wedding in the Hillgrove Hotel on Saturday 12th October. We can not recommend Mary, Enda & the staff enough, they totally went over & beyond for us and our guests.

From we first met up with Mary last year, nothing was a problem. She is a fantastic woman to deal with and extremely precise in everything she does.

We never had a doubt that the hotel would be able to cater for our 400 guests with absolute perfection and they really pulled out all the stops to make our day so perfect and memorable.

We really had the best day ever. Thank you!

From start to finish our day was perfect. The build up was also so enjoyable for us and Enda really made everything feel so relaxed and stress free. 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.

The Hillgrove is absolutely amazing!! Myself and my husband went back in 2016 to have a look and from we met Mary and seen the room everything was perfect. 3years in advance booking everything. Mary was in touch all the time making sure everything was well especially with the arrival of our?daughter. The few months leading up to our wedding Mary was on the ball with everything and the communication was brilliant anything I needed or wanted she sorted!! On arrival of our wedding the welcome we got from Mary&Enda was phenomenal!! The way everything was displayed was absolutely beautiful!! My guests never stopped talking about the amount of bubbly,beer and food on arrival and it all tasted amazing, even the selection of food for my coeliac relatives they were amazed!! Then the dinner unbelievable the food was out of this world as always and yet again my guests couldn't get over how wonderful everything was and the amount of seconds.... The whole hotel, staff, food even the decor (what made me love the hotel) is simply amazing everything was completed to perfection exactly how I wanted our special day to go!!!?

We will be forever grateful for the Hillgrove hotel for everything they done for us on the 19/09/19
Highly recommend it.. Actually can't recommend the hotel enough. It is just a beautiful place to visit, to try the food, the spa and have a nice night away!!!?

Thanks for everything...
Love from the McGinleys x

Had our wedding on Saturday was just the prefect day thanks to Mary and Enda they couldn't do more for us. Food and service was amazing and all guests commented on this.

We had an absolutely amazing wedding day, all the staff were so attentive, friendly and helpful. The decor was amazing and mary and Edna helped our dream wedding come true, everyone made sure we wer relaxed, there were no issues and just perfect, we cant thank everyone in the hillgrove enough x

Best hotel for a wedding mary and enda the dream makers!! Everything was brilliant from we booked it until our wedding day. Everything was possible food was delicious and service was fab!! Price of it with the packages they provide are outstanding.. absolutely brilliant hotel for a wedding and the staff are out of this world!!

We got married recently in the Hillgrove Hotel, Monaghan. The service on the day was excellent and the food was delicious! Mary and Enda our wedding co-ordinators were great to work with. They were very friendly and helpful and easy to approach. They ensured that the day ran smoothly. We couldn't fault a thing! Thank you both so much!

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!

We recently had our wedding in the Hillgrove, Monaghan. I would highly recommend to anyone planning their own wedding. Enda and Mary make the whole experience very stress free and easy on the couple and no request that was made was ever a problem. All our guests were very complimentary about the wedding, the staff and the food.

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 would highly recommend the Hillgrove for your wedding from the day we booked Mary and Enda could not do enough for us, any questions we had or any worries were answered immediately to put our minds at ease, on the day ourselves and our guest's were overwhelmed by the service we received from Mary, Enda and all staff involved in making our day magical.

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.

We had our wedding here on the 15/6/19 and honestly couldn't have picked a Better venue, from the get go mary , enda and all staff couldn't do enough for us. They accomadated us for our every need nothing couldn't be done. Everything ran so smoothly on the day timing was on point which took a lot of pressure off our shoulders. The food was to die for all the quest couldn't get over it and there was defiantly no shortage on the day some people even had seconds and thirds we also did a photo shoot in the new wedding gardens and they turned out fabulous would highly recommend this place to future couples thinking of booking here you honestly won't be disappointed. We had quiet a few quest stay over as we weren't from Monaghan and everyone commented on the standards of the rooms and beds top quality hotel.

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.

Where to start!! We had the most amazing day at the Hillgrove Hotel Monaghan for our wedding on 3rd May! Our wedding coordinator Mary was amazing from we initially visited the hotel back in September 2017 right through to our wedding day! She literally could not do enough for you, she honestly made my wedding planning experience quite relaxed and never once did I panic about anything in relation to the venue! Mary had everything covered which made our day run so smoothly!! I could not recommend Mary & her team highly enough as wedding coordinators for you big day! In the venue itself we used the Rembrandt Suite for our wedding ceremony and the Van Gough Suite for the reception. Both were decorated impeccably - we could not have been happier with the layout of the rooms, the decorations and the ambience as a whole was amazing!! The food was delicious, we heard nothing but good reports about the food and everyone seemed to really enjoy their meals! The staff were second to none! We had quite a big wedding with 194 guests and throughout the food service and evening buffet the staff were fantastic, they were friendly, approachable and efficient!! Special shout out to Moulay, Evelyn, Geraldine and Aleksandra who were fantastic on both our wedding day and the bbq celebrations the day after!! Our wedding guests are still talking about our wedding and how amazing the Hillgrove as a venue was which is testament in itself to the service we received! I honestly could not recommend the Hillgrove highly enough for any upcoming wedding!! You will not be disappoint

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.

Wedding
We had our wedding in the hillgrove hotel on the 30th March, we could not recommend this hotel enough. We dealt with Mary all throughout our wedding planning she went above and beyond to make our day so special. The food was top class and the staff were excellent. We still have people telling us the food, staff and band were excellent and they had a great day. It is a real family hotel and as we already have a child we were looking to keep him entertained on the day also,Mary organised a bouncy castle and it was fully supervised by two wonderful staff members. If u are thinking of staying here or booking your wedding here we could not recommend this hotel enough, u definitely wont be disappointed,it is fab! The spa is also top class in it I used it to de stress before the wedding and also went back after the wedding. Big thanks to the staff u's are a wonderful bunch and definitely deserve a 5 star rating!

We had our wedding here and what can we say but WOW!
We dealt mostly with Mary such a pleasant and professional way with her. Any questions she was quick in getting back to us! Nothing was any trouble.
The hotel is beautiful. We had our wedding in the Van Gough room which has its own private entrance. The place was set up beautifully.
The food was unreal!! Everyone was talking about how delicious the meal was!
Service was second to none! Everything ran so smoothly!
We honestly can't thank yous enough we had the best Day

Had our wedding in the Hillgrove last month and I can honestly say I cannot recommend this hotel enough! On the day everything was fantastic- the room was set up beautifully, the service we received was second to none and the meal was just to die for! Before our big day we had the help of the fabulous Mary who did her best to help with any and all questions that we had (and believe me that was a lot!!)
We were the first wedding to be photographed in the new wedding gardens and we are delighted with our photographs! Brilliant to have such a nice spot right outside the hotel so you don't have to go away to get photos taken and end up missing out on more of the big day.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Hillgrove to any engaged couples as the quality of service from all of the hotel staff we got was phenomenal, our special day went off without a hitch and we are still getting comments from guests of it being "the best wedding they have been at", our delicious wedding meal is still getting talked about too! Get in contact with Mary and she won't let you down :

They were fantastic

We had our wedding in this hotel on the 28th December! If your thinking about booking do it!! Mary the wedding co-ordinator is an absolute wee gem! Nothing was ever too much hassle including my one million emails! The whole planning process was a breeze with Mary we left boxes of supplies in the hotel the night before and Mary had all perfectly laid out for our arrival. She was there to greet us on arrival and ensure that our day ran smooth! Mary ensured that we kept to our timescale for the day and therefore allowed us to enjoy the evening party of our wedding! The food was absolutely top class! Our guests are still raving about the food and the fantastic service which was provided on the day! The champagne breakfast the next day was more than enjoyable! We can't wait to stay again! Aisling & James xx

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.

So delighted to have had our wedding here. We won 1st prize in a fabulous competition where we received ?5000 towards our wedding in 2018. We were helped along the journey by 2 brilliant wedding co-ordinators Mary and Enda. Our day ran so smoothly from arriva till late into the night. We loved the recently refurbished decor and the space to enjoy a large wedding. The food was exceptional and we were provided with a great choice. Would well recommend the Hillgrove for their relaxed atmosphere. Would love to be doing it all over again

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!

I could not recommend the hillgrove highly enough, nothing was a problem to them, the staff completely went out of their way to ensure that are day was perfect

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!

Me and my husband had our Wedding Evening Reception at the Hillgrove Hotel Monaghan on the 3rd of August 2018. The Hillgrove was close to home and thought it would be ideal for our special day. The lead up to the wedding, our Hotel Wedding Co-Ordinator Mary did everything to help us with great communication. On the day of the Wedding, Mary ensured everything went to plan from start to finish, timing and food etc was great. Mary and the staff of the Hillgrove did an excellent job. We recommend the Hillgrove for a great wedding. Thanks very much. Lisa & Cathal.

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.

Mary and her team were fabulous throughout our whole wedding. From when we booked up to the big day they couldn't do enough for us. Would thoroughly recommend the Hillgrove Hotel.

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.

There is so many words I could say about the staff and the hotel on our special day. But here is 1 word, phenomenal!!! Everything was to perfection. We couldn't have wished it any better. Mary was an absolute diamond and so were all the serving staff! Can't wait to get back for another over night!!!

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!!

Absolutely, without doubt the best wedding venue in Ireland! Mary and all the staff catered to our every need! No matter what we asked it was not a problem! The food was amazing, the service was 5* and the hotel itself was immaculate! We were treated like royalty from start to finish and the hotel went above and beyond their call of duty to ensure we had everything we wanted for our big day! Can't wait to go back!
I couldn't recommend the Hillgrove highly enough for any prospective brides and grooms!! Contact, the legend that is, Mary and book that appointment!!

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!

My husband James and I got married in the Hillgrove Hotel on the 23/09/17. It was just a magical day from start to finish. From delicious food to gorgeous scenery, you couldn't fault it. The wedding planners were so helpful and made sure everything went according to plan. We thank you again for a fantastic day and we wish you all the best.

Just cannot fault the hillgrove as a wedding venue from start to finish everyone was amazing. I knew the minute I met Linda that our wedding would be perfect. I really couldn't of asked to anyone better to plan our big day with.
Cannot recommend The Hillgrove Hotel enough...its a must see for anyone planning their wedding

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Linda was our coordinator and nothing was too much hassle. We were organising our wedding from over seas and the flexibility that the Hillgrove had for us when it came to appointments was unbelievable. They know exactly what they are doing and they do it brilliantly, complete experts and can assist with any extras. The food...our guests raved about the food, the quality and the quantity is fantastic. Couldn't have asked for better.

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.

So professional, made everything so easy and thought of things we never thought of!!!

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.

Absolutely fantastic hotel, we had our civil ceremony in hotel and it was magical nothing was too much for the team, the quality of food, the friendly staff, I couldn't fault a thing, would definitely recommend, thank you so much for making are Day so relaxing and magical

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
