Myself and my husband had our wedding reception here in September 2019. I would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone who's thinking of getting married staff were so kind helpful and friendly and couldn't have done enough for us on our special day. We found Claire fantastic to deal with. She is so professional and nothing was a problem for her. She put us at ease with every question throughout the whole process. She was pleasure to deal with. The staff were all great my guest even commented to us that they couldn't have done enough. We had an amazing day and are very grateful to all at the hotel. Ye won't be disappointed in choosing this hotel as your venue.

Claire, Just wanted to say thank you so so so much for your help in organising our wedding, you are a star. The hotel was amazing and the staff could not have been more helpful. We were blown away by what you had done and were truly blessed to have chosen The Inn at Dromoland as our wedding venue. Our guest are still talking about the day and how well the hotel catered for our mad bunch. We will be recommending The Inn at Dromoland to our friends for their wedding venues and we will be using the hotel for future family events. Thanks again for all your help, you truly have an amazing team behind you

We got in contact with Claire from The Inn at Dromoland when our original venue closed down 5 months before our wedding. We were lucky enough that they were still available for our date. Claire was so helpful from the beginning and was really accommodating. We were really impressed with their packages, they are so inclusive of everything you could possibly need. The venue is really pretty and the setting is beautiful. The staff were all really friendly when we went to meet them and Claire eased us through everything that would happen on the day. We booked with them that day and arranged to come back for our food tasting. Wow the food is amazing we were blown away by the standard of the food an our guests are still talking about it months later. Claire really is amazing and we were so lucky to have her help she was brilliant the whole way through answering all our questions and concerns and was amazing on the day. We were so happy that our plans had to change and feel that everything worked out as it was supposed to. The Inn at Dromoland is a wonderful venue and I would highly recommend it to anyone considering it as a future location for you wedding, you will not be disappointed.

We got married in the Inn at Dromoland in July 2019, we decided to go for something different, a private family dinner and a big party in the evening with BBQ food. It could not have been made any easier for us, anything we asked for we got, the food was amazing, the décor was beautiful, Claire is an absolute dream to deal with she takes the stress out of everything, we had the best day of our lives. We would definitely recommend this venue.

We could not have been happier with the Inn at Dromoland on our wedding day. We live in Canada and my sister was arranging the wedding. We particularly loved the laid back, calm and reassuring answers we received to literally every request and question we asked of Claire. We really wanted a zero drama day and the Inn at Dromoland delivered exactly that. We're not ones for micromanaging everything and we were happy to trust that the people at the hotel are the experts and indeed they were. There's nothing better than being able to sit back and enjoy your wedding day without a care in the world for any arrangements and that's exactly what we got. Everything ran so smoothly, we along with our families were completely relaxed which in turn meant our guests were completely relaxed, the food was delicious and there was plenty of it and the punch on arrival was particularly popular. The table decor was beautiful also. We loved that they served the evening food and the cake at the usual 10.30pm or 11pm and left it available so that our guests could eat it much later which of course they did. All of the serving staff were so friendly and helpful and even at 3 or 4am we were not made to feel unwelcome in the function room and there was no rushing us out of the place. We thoroughly enjoyed our day and that was due in no small part to the wonderful staff of the Inn at Dromoland. We've since gotten our photos from our photographer and the room and grounds look so amazing. The honeymoon suite is huge and very comfortable. If we had to do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing.

Myself and my husband had the pleasure of using The Inn at Dromoland for our wedding reception. From the beginning I delt with Claire Coughlin, who is amazing at her job. She put us at ease with every question or panic attack throughout the whole process. The hall, the suppliers they provided and their staff are so good at what they do. We had an amazing day and are very grateful to all at the hotel. Ye won't be disappointed in choosing this hotel as your venue.

We had our wedding here on Saturday 06th April 2019 & it was just simply amazing. Everyone at this hotel is a pleasure to deal with. We can’t thank Claire, Tom, Fergal & all the Team enough for their helpfulness, professionalism & friendliness while planning & celebrating our wedding, everything was just perfect. Can’t recommend this hotel enough, we fell in love with the venue the minute we walked in the door on the first day all those months ago. The ballroom is just stunning. Thank you all for making our day & one we will always remember.

My wife and I got married in the Inn at Dromoland in Dec 2018. We found Claire fantastic to deal with. She is so professional and nothing was a problem for her. As we are from Cork a lot of organising was done through emails and we can honestly say Claire put us at ease from the moment we began planning. It's such a beautiful venue from the ballroom to the grounds for pictures it's absolutely flawless!!! The food was amazing!! So many people complimented it! I would highly recommend this hotel as Claire and her team are an absolute pleasure to deal with and are truly a credit the Inn At Dromoland!!

We started our hotel search last November and looked at many venues. From my first point of contact with Claire Coughlan I have to say she was so professional but we also got the feeling that she was interested in our wedding and us as a couple. Nothing was a problem to Claire and when deciding on the menu and wine she gave us time and advice. Claire is super at her job and is a credit to The Inn at Dromoland. She never put any pressure on us for anything and was there at the end of an email at anytime. On the day itself I have to say the food and service was 100%. The staff were so friendly and super organised. The bridal suite was amazing. The front of house and bar staff to the waiting staff in the function room they were all excellent. The day after the wedding Claire was there to finalise everything and she had all flowers,cake etc kept safely in one place and made sure that all was not damaged. Some hotels we have been we would get the vibe after the wedding that your weren't important or your business was no longer needed or wanted . We stayed in the hotel bar until about 4pm that afternoon and again the food, drink, service and atmosphere was excellent. To sum it all up we have no regrets in choosing The Inn at Dromoland for our wedding and we certainly will be returning and would consider it for other family events in the future.

What a wonderful place to have our wedding. I wish I could give 6 stars but I suppose 5 will do. The staff are so professional and dealing with Claire, the wedding coordinator was an absolute dream. Regardless of when I had a query, I always received a timely reply. The grounds of the hotel are simply gorgeous and perfect for pictures for the whole party not just the bridal party.

It was lovely to have the Bridal Suite for the morning of our wedding as we were having our ceremony in the hotel we decided to get ready there as well.The men got ready in a family room and the ladies got ready in the living room of the bridal suite which was great as there were five of us getting our hair and make up done. The setting could not have been better.

There are two things that stand out about the day- the food and the staff. Several people said how beautiful the food was and how efficiently it was served. The staff were so friendly and helpful- especially claire and aoife. Claire was with us step by step and really made the whole thing less daunting!

We've had the best day ever on our Wedding Day in the Inn a Dromoland. During the planning stages, the hotel was very flexible and accommodated all our special requests (we didn't want a table plan, we had a buffet and replaced a traditional dessert with an ice cream bar). We were able to amend the available wedding packages to our needs, swap things out and add new things in. Don't hesitate to ask - the staff in The Inn at Dromoland will help you create your own personal perfect day! On the day of the wedding everything went extremely smooth - the staff was very attentive, helpful & friendly. The receptionist helped my bridesmaids with a lot of work in the background to keep any stress away from us - I would jokingly call her my 4th bridesmaid! I'd say I'm quite an unusual and quirky bride, so I'd be conscious of not fitting in or being 'too special' for a traditional venue, but the Inn at Dromoland never made me feel awkward. All my requests for personal touches and non-traditional elements were taken on by the hotel without ever questioning my reasons or telling me off. I'm absolutely delighted with the venue and the fact that they made all our wishes and requests possible, rather than suggesting "more traditional alternatives". Due to the staffs help we could truly be ourselves and create the perfect day for us.

I found the inn at Dromoland excellent! The food was fab! Really enjoyed our meal tasting too, stayed the nite and didn't want to leave the next morning. The breakfast was fab too! Loved the hotel, taught the staff were lovely, a very homely hotel! Everybody loved the rooms too! The bar was brill stayed open til whatever time you wanted! Scenery was beautiful, got lovely photos at the backdrop were fab! The only thing was the jacuzzi in the bridle suite did not work, so was a bit of a bummer having to feel it up and not work! We did call someone up to c if they could fix it( at 430am) but it was broken. Other then that is was a brilliant venu, Great value, and food was amazing and very helpful, no matter what I wanted Clare would make sure to do it!

We found the management and staff very easy to get on with, and Claire, our wedding coordinator was very nice and very helpful. The hotel staff were very efficient. When choosing this hotel for our wedding we found it very easy to find a package to suit us and there were no hidden costs as there had been in a couple of other hotels that we had looked at.Claire made us feel very relaxed and made sure that all our needs were catered for. The hotel location is ideal for taking photos and the surrounds are beautiful. The rooms have all been refurbished and the whole hotel is bright and colourful. The bridal sweet is beautiful. All our guests loved their stay and were very impressed with the food at the wedding. Louise designs the function room to your requirements, no matter what type of theme you want in it and she is very easy to get on with and very helpful and this service is included as part of the wedding package. Overall we would highly recommend The Inn at Dromoland for your wedding reception.

Claire the wedding coordinator was by far the best we had encountered in all our visits to hotels in picking out venue for our big day. Claire made us feel like we were the only wedding that they had and that she genuinely cared about us having an amazing day. From the first meeting to various emails, menu tastings, the big day to breakfast the next morning they were the most accommodating and top class staff that we delt with in each occasion and the food was only to die for. Both myself and my husband can without a shadow of a doubt recommended this hotel for any ones big day or for any special occasion that may arise.

We cannot thank the Inn at Dromoland for all their help and the level of service we received on the day of our wedding. The level of professionalism and flexibility was outstanding.

We got married on the 19th September 2014 and had our reception at the Inn at Dromoland. We cannot speak highly enough of their wedding coordinator Claire. She was absolutely amazing at every step, from the day we booked to the day of the wedding. She was so helpful with every little detail. The day was absolutely amazing, the food, the service, everything was fantastic and we had an amazing memorable day. I would recommend the Inn at Dromoland to any couple as they are definitely above and beyond the standard of other hotels. Also want to mention Grace Events who work with the Inn at Dromoland in decorating the reception room and indeed the hotel itself for weddings. Louise is fantastic and definitely knows her stuff. The room looked amazing and again no matter what I asked we were accommodated. A big Thank You to all involved in the Inn at Dromoland for making our wedding reception so wonderful.

We would like to say a massive thank you to our Wedding Co-ordinator, Claire Coughlan and all of the staff at The Inn at Dromoland; we got married on 23rd of August and had our reception at the hotel. The service was incredible, all of our guests thought the hotel and surrounding grounds were beautiful. We heard so many compliments of the quality of the food served on the day, and overall ambience on the day, and over the weekend, as many guests travelled and stayed in the hotel for the weekend. It was genuinely a five star experience with all our guests' special requests catered for and accommodated. The room decoration by Grace Covers was fantastic and made everything look beautiful, we were very fortunate to have this included in our package. Claire was absolutely fantastic, and was extremely helpful with the planning and in the run up to our wedding, particularly as we live away, and we will never forget the consideration and thought that was given to us. It was certainly a day we will never forget, thank you so much!

We got married on August 8 2014. It was a fantastic day we both had the time of our lives. From the very first day when we picked the venue and met with Claire we received the best service and she was on hand to answer and help with everything. It was great to have someone to help and do their best to make the lead up to the day a success. The room has the wow factor and for us it offered the best package and choice. And to have the table centres included was fab. We had the time of our lives and so did our guests! Thanks so much guys

I cannot say enough about this hotel and the staff. We got married here in July 2014 and all through the process from preparation to the day of the wedding, Claire and the staff could not have been more helpful, nothing was too much for them. We organized our wedding from abroad and the assistance Claire and the team gave us was beyond anything you could expect or ask for. From start to finish the service was incredible. The hotel itself is in a great location close to many local amenities and set in amazing grounds. On the day of the wedding, everything had been organized to perfection (including room decoration by Grace Covers, there is an obvious reason that the Inn at Dromoland use this company, Standards count, again perfect service and attention to detail) nothing was missed or forgotten and no stress for either myself or my wife. We had a lot of guests traveling with us from Switzerland all of whom also stayed in the hotel and were very happy with the service and friendliness of the staff. If you are looking for a hotel to have your wedding in (either from home or abroad) you will find it hard to find a better location than the “Inn at Dromoland” Claire, the hotels Wedding Co-ordinator is fantastic and if you do choose this hotel you could not be in better hands to plan your day. Finally our thanks again to Claire and all the staff for everything, you helped to make our wedding a day we will remember and cherish for the rest of our lives
