Myself and my partner got engaged on first ever lock down in 2020. So it was great excuse to give us time over lock down to think where we would like have our wedding venue. So we decided to go with hotel we first ever stayed in as couple which was Midlands Park Hotel. So we went and booked it soon as lock down was over and soon we walked in through them doors we fell in love with it we were made feel welcome was great. I then went sign contract this was when I met Marie the wedding coordinator she had me told the day will be so special and she was right I knew my wedding was in safe hands. Couple weeks before wedding myself and my partner had our final meeting to run things over with Marie about the day. We walked out the hotel feeling more relaxed than what we did walking in. The night before wedding we dropped everything over to hotel that needed be brought over Marie knew by both of us we were big stress heads but she said it's all done now your day is here go Home and enjoy your evening before big day stop stressing and I did that everything was done out my hands I was ready for my big day. The day of wedding when we got to the hotel all I can say was wow the hotel was done amazing everything went smoothly it was gorgeous everyone was made feel welcome. Staff were so friendly on the day the food was amazing. Everyone couldn't believe the amount of food from the starter to main then dessert ten sandwiches finger food later on in night then when was over brought out bread crisps just so nice. If you are thinking of getting married this is hotel I would recommend so much my wedding day was just amazing and I knew was in safe hand with the midland park hotel. Thank you so much to Marie our brilliant wedding coordinator and also like to thank Gavin aswell who also made us feel very welcome night of our wedding taster and for helping with wedding also and great help with our day 2 for our wedding thank you both so much from Aimee and Brendan.

We got married in Midlands Park in August 23 having only 8 months to plan the wedding we couldn't have chosen a better venue. The decor for the private function area is so elegant and timeless we loved it...we loved that the area was totally private for our guests..the outdoor courtyard is gorgeous but unfortunately weather didn't allow us stay out to long in it. The bridal suite is huge and you feel really pampered in it !! The food is the talk of our wedding it was just unbelievable starters right through to dessert was fabulous and the amount of food provided is just unbelievable we had a few fussy men at wedding and the raved the most about the food. The staff are just second to none...there was an excellent feeling amongst staff and management on the day ..all wait staff so friendly and professional. The lads in the bar at the wedding were just fabulous so lovely and up for the craic with our guests. Marie our wedding planner was just lovely very easy deal.with no issue seemed unfixable and she was an ear to bounce issues off coming up to the wedding and on the day I actually didn't give anything a second thought as I knew we were in safe hands. I hadn't ever intended on a town centre hotel thinking I'd go for more a manor type hotel and I'm so glad we decided on this fabulous hotel...it gave us absolutely everything we wanted...style , elegance, excellent service AMAZING food and most of all just a totally seamless wedding with not even one issue on the day! I would recommend this hotel for your wedding because we can guarantee that from our day you won't regret it ...it's a 5 star hotel in our eyes!Thanks Marie and all the banqueting team and all staff yeade our wedding so memorable and just perfect!

My Husband and I had our wedding reception in your hotel on 17th of August 2023.
I am writing this email to bring to your attention the outstanding treatment we received from several members of your staff from beginning to end!
Firstly Marie the wedding coordinator, not only did she provide a fabulous package tailored to our needs for the day but she went above and beyond for my Husband and I to accompany several last minute changes in order to keep certain family members pleased. No question was left unanswered and no task appeared too great. We will forever be grateful to Marie for providing us with the day of our dreams.
Gavin, who accompanied Marie on several occasions had the most beautiful mannerisms and is the warm and welcoming member of staff. He also went above and beyond to accommodate us on several occasions.
We would also like to mention Aoife and Rebecca. Aoife has the most incredible personality that shines through her work. She was responsible for serving us during our meal and everyone at the table complimented what a helpful and pleasant manner she had. She is an invaluable asset to your team. Rebecca also was a huge help as nothing’s was too big of an ask, she went out of her way to accomplish many different family members and we were incredibly grateful to the two of them.
Susan that provided us with breakfast served to the bridal sweet and then the following day seated us to a beautiful table at the breakfast area. Susan has the most lovely personality and was hugely helpful in every way, another great asset to your team!
Lastly I would like to thank all the staff at the Midlands Park Hotel, from the chefs to the cleaning staff, everyone who we interacted with was genuinely so pleasant and helpful.
We will remain a customer for life.
Many Thanks,
The newlyweds Mr & Mrs Lynch.

The midlands was an amazing hotel. Everything was so perfectly done and not a single thing was left out. From the start of the planning to the big day it’s self Marie and her staff were absolutely incredible. If you can’t see the bridal suite before the night just hold out until the day/night of your wedding. The surprise you get when you walk through that door is amazing. I was honestly left so speechless. Everything was done so professionally, if I had to do it all over again I’d choose the midlands again without a second thought.

We got married in the midlands park hotel in July. When we first walked through the doors we were so impressed. Marie the wedding Co-Ordinator is just a lovely person and easy to get on with! She is very helpful, responsive and happy to give suggestions. Nothing seemed like an inconvience to Marie which helped make the planning enjoyable.
The food and service on the day and all over the weekend was excellent. We felt so special on our day and all the staff were amazing. Aidan greeting us with our drinks at the door. Gavin managing the food and service. George the hotel manager greeting us in the banqueting room, made sure we had canapes and a drink. The little touches all made a huge difference. On the day everything ran smoothly. There was no stress and everything was as we wanted.
The room was laid out beautifully. The area feels very private and the courtyard is a fabulous area. We were lucky with the weather and the sun was shining. The food was cooked perfectly and laid out on time, We were so impressed with the wait staff. This did not go unnoticed by people, it was fantastic. We had some guests who were gluten free and the hotel went out of its way to accomadate them. We have been to family weddings since our own and people have come up to us to tell us how good the beef was in the midlands park hotel!!!
Friends of ours have booked nights away here as they were so impressed with the food, the friendly staff and the pool!
We could not thank Marie and all the staff at the midlands park hotel enough for giving us such a special memorable day.
I would highly recommend the midlands park hotel to anyone getting married. I wish we could do it all again.

Eamon-John and I got married in the Midlands Park Hotel on the 13th July 2023 (one of the sunnier days of the wettest July). We came upon this amazing hotel by accident while looking up wedding showcases online and booked in for one that was held there. From the moment we saw the hotel and met all the amazing team there , we knew this was the one!
First off, we would like to thank the amazing wedding coordinator Marie who is just an amazing person all round. Her enthusiasm, bubbly personality and attentiveness throughout was amazing. She was always so quick to answer any emails, give advice and just helped greatly during the whole build up to our wedding day. We knew the day was going to be run smoothly with her in charge! We would like to thank all the staff team. They were all amazing from start to finish. They were so friendly and could not do enough for us or our guests. The food was phenomenal , all our family and friends are still talking about it a week later (along with a few chefs in the mix). The portion sizes were very generous and the staff made sure everyone had enough of everything. The drinks reception and ballroom were decorated lovely on the day! The outdoor area was an added bonus which made for lovely pictures under the arch! The rooms were next level! Very modern , clean and spacious. The jacuzzi with the TV was an added bonus in the honeymoon suite! The whole day was just perfect- everything we ever dreamed of and more! This hotel deserves more than 5 stars and its all down to the amazing staff! We cannot thank you all enough for the best day and we looking forward to visiting again in the near future.

We got married in The Midlands Park Hotel in July this year and had a BBQ the following day and what else can we say? Our wedding experience was AMAZING and worth every single penny!
Every single member of staff in the hotel was fantastic and couldn't do enough for you.
Marie the wedding planner is a lovely person to deal with and is second to none for wedding planning! Marie had every detail under control and couldn't do enough for us both leading up to the wedding and also on the day. It is clear that wedding planning is Marie's passion!
Gavin the Banquet Manager was super and really looked after us on our tasting evening and did everything to assist us in choosing our wedding menu and took care of any requests we had.
The Chef has a fantastic team in the kitchen and both days he came out to us in person to see if we were happy with everything. The food was top class and we couldn't have asked for better!
The BBQ the next day was lovely out on the terrace, again the food was A1 and it was nice way to continue the celebrations in a more relaxed manner and was very reasonably priced.
We were over the moon with the luxurious Honeymoon Suite, we have never ever stayed in a room so fantastic! We didn't want to leave and it really makes your stay in the hotel special.
All of our guests commented on how amazing the wedding menu was and that they really had 5 star treatment whilst in the Hotel. Lots of people said it was the best wedding they had ever attended.
Our only complaint is that our wedding weekend went too fast!
We really did choose the perfect location for our wedding, so thank you to all the staff who made it such a memorable experience for us.
The Midlands Park is a beautiful hotel full of wonderful staff

Wow just wow we loved every minute of our day the staff could not do enough. What can I say if Carlsberg did weddings they would be at the midlands park hotel the food the decor the attention to detail and most importantly just making sure we were ok and enjoying our day, I was nervous and excited and Marie was there encouraging me all the way . From start to finish the wedding I had in my head came to life with the expert support and skill of the staff here.

"From when we made initial contact with Midlands Park Hotel back at the start of December 2021, Marie Healy was an absolute delight to work with. She was always extremely friendly and courteous. Always replied to emails promptly and assisted us with all queries no matter how trivial they may have seemed.
The weeks and months leading up to the wedding with regards to the tasting, the timeline for the day, etc... was well coordinated.
We arrived the day before our wedding to be greeted by Marie with her smile! In the evening in the bar the staff couldn't have been nicer - Sabina on the floor and Alan at the bar!
The Wedding Day - everything was brilliant! Even with a bit of a delay with Sarah Louise the Bride of over an hour - Marie kept the Groom Gavin updated and calm... Marie firstly collected Sarah Louise and her dad to escort them to the ceremony and guided all the Flower Girl, Bridesmaids and Bride into the ceremony - all brilliantly coordinated.
After the Wedding, we were met by Marie and Gavin with some bubbly and slipped out the side door as requested.
Every bit of detail on the day by Marie and the Team was exceptional! She touched base with us before leaving and everything! We couldn't have asked for anything more from a Wedding Coordinator! Likewise with Gavin, a great person to deal with. A special mention to Aine who served the top table - she was a pleasure to deal with, an absolute credit to the Midlands Park Hotel.
All of the wedding guests commented on how accomdating and friendly the staff were, how brilliant the food was and how everything flowed flawlessly overall.
Day 2 - Gavin again touched base with us on the day about the indoor -v- outdoor debate for where to have the food! Again, such a friendly face to deal with!
Again everyone commented on the food and how lovely it was! The staff accomodated the 5 or 6 kids without any fuss (I had forgot to mention this in advance to Gavin). All the staff were all excellent, a special mention for Eimear who was brilliant and liaised with us as a few of the guests were a bit delayed. One slight comment would be guests were going up but turned away as they were doing table by table (which makes sense). I asked Gavin could he ask the staff to just let people know the arrangements so it saved people getting up and down.
Departing on the Sunday we were greeted by Aidan, an absolute Gentleman! We had issues getting some of our bits and pieces back and also the porter came out with 2 full tiers of our cake fully intact... Aidan assisted in getting a box for us and was extremely helpful with getting back a few bits which were in the office including a frame.
The only other slight issue we felt was the wedding cake - we weren't aware only half of the top tier was served on the wedding night. Ideally it would have been served at the Day 2. Also when the porter brought out the remaining 2.5 tiers of cake on the Sunday our jaws dropped... One how were we to get this back to Dublin and two it felt like a major waste of an expensive cake.
Overall an exceptional experience over 18 months! Marie, Gavin and all the staff were just so helpful and went above & beyond!"

We just wanted to show a huge thank you to the team in the Midlands Park, especially you. We had the best experience from the very first meeting to our day. When we went to look at the hotel we knew it was the place for us especially after how calm you made us feel.
Every single person who attended the wedding has commented on how unreal the food and service was. The beef was a huge success and people are still texting me about it.
You honestly made our day and kept the whole thing so stress free and we really appreciate that. Even down to the room your organised for our boys I couldn't believe it; everything we asked for you done. You're amazing at your job.
We can't wait to come back, thank you so much for the best day.

Marie, Firstly a big thank you for all your hard work and dedication throughout the planning of my wedding which was made very special within the Midlands Park hotel ! From the atmosphere and setting it really makes the day so calming, enjoyable and romantic all in one ! The staff are amazing and so friendly throughout the hotel. The food was something else I couldn’t believe it , I had some people go back for thirds even though they were full because they said it was so good they couldn’t stop , I also had three vegans who said it was the best meal they had ever gotten. The lovely terrace placed just out side of the ball room is just beautiful I would recommend many photos out there for other couples ! I cannot recommend the hotel enough from start to finish I couldn’t fault anything. You and your team went above and beyond to make my day and I am forever grateful.
I cannot thank you enough for making my day so special.

We recently got married on the 06/04/2023. We booked our wedding with Marie and she made everything so simple and easy. We had previously looked at other venues as we didn’t realise The Midlands Park provided intimate weddings and we didn’t have great experiences. After a quick call with Marie to schedule a meeting and then meeting with her it was a breath of fresh air. All our stress went away after our first meeting and excitement kicked in. We had an intimate wedding and our day could not have went any better. Not a single thing would we change. We used the O More Suite for our civil ceremony and then for our evening reception. Nothing was too much trouble for Marie, she is amazing at her job. From the decor to the food, everything was top quality service. Everyone is still complementing the food so hats off to the chefs. Anything we needed or wanted was no issue. The bridal suite is just out of this world. You won’t regret booking your wedding with The Midlands Park Hotel ????Aileen & Joe Moore

John and I were recently married in the Midlands Park Hotel and we had the absolute best day.
The Midlands Hotel looked absolutely stunning and as always the staff were excellent. On the day of the wedding, they could not have done more for us and the guests were complementing them throughout the entire day.
The food was absolutely delicious and everybody was so happy with their food and afters. We were just so happy with how everything went. The hotel made our day so easy for us so Thank you Midlands for that.
We planned our wedding in a short time frame and we could not have done this without our excellent wedding coordinator Marie Healy.
We met with Marie back in August and four months later we celebrated our wedding day.
Marie was so approachable and great to offer guidance and recommendations throughout. Any questions or concerns we brought to Marie, she was prompt to get back to us and always set us on the right track.
Leading up to the day when stress levels were rising a little, she always reassured us and told us the Midlands team were there to take care of it.
On the day, she was so attentive and most importantly calming to be around. She met us at the door and was there to guide us throughout the whole day. I cannot thank her enough for all of her help throughout our entire experience even when our emails may have consumed her a little.
We started our journey with a wedding coordinator and we left with a friend. Marie is a lady and was an absolute pleasure to deal with. So we would like to sincerely thank her for all her great efforts and guidance throughout.
Thank you very much

Every time we met Marie she made us feel so welcome and relaxed and we knew she was going to do anything to ensure we had the perfect day. Our meal tasting was a lovely experience and we had lots of advice in helping to create a perfect menu. On the day the attention to detail was amazing. The decor was fabulous, and the food was gorgeous. All our guests are still commenting on the delicious food. Alot of our guests traveled and stayed in the hotel for 2 to 3 nights and all were impressed with the bedrooms.

That showed by the feedback we got from our guests they greatly complemented the hotel and staff for the brilliant day they had and fabulous food they had on the day. We cannot recommend the hotel highly enough for our amazing day from beginning to end which was down to your hard work and professionalism.

All our guests are still talking about the quality and standard of the food and service on the day. We enjoyed every minute of the day and didn’t have to worry about a thing as Marie ensured everything we wanted and more was in place. The hotel is really a perfect venue for a wedding and the staff really make everyone feel they are at home. Another team member to mention is Anna who ensures the service of the meal is second to none, Anna has great experience and is there to ensure you can sit back and enjoy the day.

Marie was dedicated to every detail and plan. She made planning our wedding easy. She gave us ideas and advice.
Rhiain looked after us so well, ensuring everything went smoothly. So professional, ensuring both of us were happy and stress free. The service during the dinner was flawless.
Both ladies answered questions we didn't realise we had!
When our dj didn't show up, leaving us with no music, the team went above and beyond and organised a miracle. Within half an hour they had a brilliant DJ, Pj the Dj, at the venue and set up.
What could have ruined our whole wedding day was rescued by this fantastic team.

Marie, Anna and team were amazing from start to finish. Marie’s ability to listen and notice what we felt was important removed any worries keeping the day calm and flowing. They just made us feel like stars especially when we arrived back to the hotel after our pictures and theatrics around the dinner service. Everyone had an amazing day and enjoyed their food, their rooms and overall stay. The only feedback I would give is serving out the wedding cake. Not a lot of people realised it was in the corner and therefore we went home with a lot of cake. Apart from that we would do it all again in a heartbeat with this hotel it’s definitely a 10 out of 10 for us. Thank you for sharing and adding to our special day. You were all amazing.

We had out very Special Wedding Day on 14th May 2022 in Rosenallis and then onto the Midlands Park Hotel for our Wedding Reception. From the moment we booked our Wedding here we instantly felt that this was our dream hotel. George helped us figure out everything and was so helpful. Marie was our wedding coordinator and we have to say she was an absolute dream to work with. we were so relaxed and at ease with Marie she looked after everything for us. we had a few meetings with her to go though everything for our Wedding day and she made us feel so chill and relaxed about everything. We were in contact with Sandra also via emails who was super helpful to us and really made us feel everything would be perfect and to stop stressing and worrying over things. Anna who was looking after us for our taster and our wedding menu was so so lovely, she was so helpful and any changes we made she wrote them down straight way and then went through everything with us again. she was just such a lovely helpful person. I have an allergy to eggs and was worried about this but she went above and beyond to ensure i was happy and looked after. we had alot of people with allergies and other special requirements and between Anna and Marie they could not have done more for everyone they were both superb.
On our wedding day we arrived in our wedding car and was met by Marie, George and Anna outside with champagne and strawberries and a big hug and smiles. The three of them are just so lovely. Our colour theme was yellow and they even had little yellow bows on their uniforms for us that was so special and we noticed straight away. its these little things that made our day so magical. We then went into the hotel and met everyone and then Marie showed us our ballroom to make sure everything was perfect for us and it was so much more than perfect we were amazed. it could not have been anymore perfect the details the hotel went to were spectacular. When we sat down we had our meal which was absolutely delicious the most amazing and tasty food we ever had. Anna looked after our top table with drinks etc so we didn't have to do anything which was so lovely. they couldn't have been more helpful. The whole day was so magical and so much more than we had ever dreamed of. We would highly recommend the Midlands park Hotel to any couple trying to decide on where to have their wedding.

George, Marie, Anna, Sandra and all the staff at the midlands park hotel were so so helpful, so reassuring and made our day for us so relaxed and so so enjoyable.

We couldn't have picked a more amazing hotel it was out of this world. we had the most magical, special day and the staff here went absolutely above and beyond for us and we are so thankful.

The service and the food on the day of the wedding was flawless. One of my biggest fears was that people would be queueing for a drink and there would be tables full of empty glasses but on the day the staff were on top of all of this which did not go unnoticed.
We are still having people talking about the meal everyone really enjoyed every part of it, especially the beef so I would like to thank Anna for getting us to try it and changing Adrian’s mind. We have since had quite a few people going over there to get dinner because the food at the wedding was so good.
The one thing that I will say we were really disappointed with was the fact our guests had no canapés on arrival. It was only when we got there and asked that the food was brought out. It seemed like our guests were only getting the canapés and a few minutes later they were being called for dinner. I do feel this was disappointing as it was one thing I had stated as I did not want our guests to be hungry and I had stressed this in many meetings.
That said, we did go on to have an amazing day the staff were very helpful and with the exception of the canapés everything else went very smoothly.

On the day of the wedding everything ran so smoothly, the ceremony room and reception was decorated beautifully by the hotel and the food was amazing!! The service we received was top quality. I could not praise the hotel staff high enough, they provided the highest level of service and were so helpful and inviting to everyone who attended. The bar man we had for the night Alan, even went as far as entertaining my nephew with some colouring books at the evening reception, which made his night. Everyone in the hotel just went out of their way for us and made our day so special and I am so grateful to all of them. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this hotel to any couple considering their wedding venue in the future - everything was absolutely perfect and the service you receive is exceptional.

We would like to thank Marie and all the staff at the Midlands Park Hotel. Honestly, so easy to deal with , nothing was ever an issue - with all the booking, planning, ordering and collecting that goes with a wedding this really was the easiest part !! Marie and the team really made everything effortless for us ! On the day itself everything went exactly to plan, food was amazing and plentiful, drinks reception was beautiful and all staff were very attentive and polite - the best day !!
We spent day two in the hotel also. We chose the barbecue menu and again everything was impeccable. Everything was done for us , literally all we had to do was turn up !! Thank you for all your help in making our special day unforgettable.

We cannot hype Marie and all the staff of Midlands Park Hotel (and the hotel itself) up enough! From the very first email sent the whole team made the planning an absolute breeze. No detail was left to chance, absolutely everything was looked after in its entirety and with such ease. It made the whole experience so enjoyable. That relaxed atmosphere that the staff created on the day was one of my highlights, there was no fuss, just smiling staff and guests from start to finish.
The food was truly immense. All of our guests could not stop raving about it. Hats off to the chef! The catering staff were so polite and accommodating.
I didn't speak much about the hotel itself - it's incredible. It is as advertised and as seen in the pictures. It speaks for itself. Gorgeous.
I can, hand on heart, say that I do not have one negative thing to say about having our wedding in this fab hotel. There isn't a single thing that I would change. I cannot thank all the staff enough for all they did for us. It was magical.

Marie, George, Ana, Rhian and all the staff at the Midlands Park Hotel.
As a couple faced with booking a venue online during lockdown, the team at the Midlands Park were so helpful and understanding about our predicament. No other hotel we contacted were as accommodating considering the circumstances we found ourselves in.
When we finally got to visit the venue and got the grand tour with George, we knew we had chosen correctly.
Marie guided us smoothly through the whole wedding planning stage. She made it effortless for us both, to the point that we had ourselves almost convinced we had forgotten lots of things! She was always at the end of a line if we needed her and gave her honest opinion on the questions, we had for her. And as an added extra, she's a great sense of humour and we had a laugh along the way!
Our wedding tasting meal was fantastic. We were given undivided attention from Ana for the whole experience. We really appreciated the fact that she questioned our choices and made us bear in mind our guests as well as ourselves. The chef also saw our choice of beef but insisted we tried the feather blade, which we went for on the day. People are still talking about it, especially those who got offered an extra portion! On the day the food was to the same high standard and plentiful.
The venue and day itself were stunning. From the moment we arrived, we were met by Marie and George with glasses of prosecco and brought to the area exclusively for our wedding. The layout of our music, the prosecco and beer reception and the canapes being brought around were fabulous. The staff were more than attentive to us both ensuring we had a drink and canape in hand if we wished. The timings and coordination of everything on the day were impeccable. Right up until the time early the next morning when we retired to the amazing honeymoon suite, full of crisp sambos!
Neither of us have been married before, so obviously we have nothing to compare our day to! But we honestly could not have asked for a more perfect day, thanks to the Midlands Park Hotel and all our friends and family who got to enjoy it with us and make it a day like no other, a day we will never forget.

On the day all staff members were excellent, they couldn't do enough for us or for our guests. All of our guests couldn't praise the food enough. They all loved that the main course was buffet, they loved that they could pick and choose what to have.
We would highly recommend Midlands Park Hotel to any couple looking for the perfect location for their Wedding day or any function.
Myself and Patrick would like to thank you again for all your help, we really appreciate it.

For all you couples out there looking for something exceptional for your special wedding day... the search is over. Marie and all of her team were outstanding, from the very first encounter with her, she was full of positivity and enthusiasm which was so comforting. She will be there 200% to assist your every request. From the very start everything in the planning was made so easy and we really didn't think about the reception side of this too much during the wedding planning as we felt it was being completely taken care of and we were right to think so. Everything about the day was perfect and the staff couldn't do enough for us or our guests. We ended up staying the night after the wedding as well and again the staff went above and beyond. The food was absolutely fantastic from start to finish, including dinner, late night finger food and breakfast. We ate in the Charter Bar the following day too and it was also outstanding. All staff in every area of the hotel are extremely friendly and so accommodating. You will not regret your decision to book Midlands Park Hotel for your dream wedding. They gave us the best day ever!!

We were lucky enough to recently get married in the Midlands Park Hotel, Portlaoise, and cannot recommend this hotel enough. As we were one of many couples due to marry during the Covid pandemic, we were nearly three years dealing with the hotel for our wedding. We had to postpone once, and the hotel could not have been more accommodating with offering us new dates and transferring over deposits and package details etc. In the last year Marie has come in as the wedding planner in the hotel, and you couldn't be in safer hands! She was a pleasure to deal with, so helpful and responsive, even emailing over make-up, tan and music supplier suggestions the day before the wedding when we were dealing with last minute Covid cancellations. The attention to detail on the day was fantastic with Marie, Anna, Rian, Joe and the team just ensuring everything went so smoothly. Many guests commented on the food on the day, both food and drink were plentiful and the quality was fabulous. I honestly don't feel we could have been looked after any better elsewhere, and I couldn't recommend the hotel enough in terms of service, flexibility, comfort and value! 100% recommend to other couples based on our recent experience. Thanks to all in the Midlands Park Hotel for helping to make our day so very special!

We got married in August 2020, a crazy time for weddings, given that we were in and out of lockdowns and restricted in numbers. But we just wanted a small, intimate, civil ceremony with a small gathering of family and closest friends. The team at the Midlands Park provided exactly that, and better! From start to finish, the events team Emma and Joanna understood exactly what we were aiming for and accommodated all our wishes. From the beaufully but simply decorated function room for the ceremony, to the delicious BBQ on the adjacent terrace, we felt like we were in our own private bubble, and pampered all day.
Communication with the hotel was excellent all along, food was delicious, and great value!
It was a brilliant day, better than we could have imagined, and the sun even shone all day, what are the chances?!

We had our day in the Midlands Park Hotel on Nov 9th. We were so appreciative to everyone at the hotel for giving us a fantastic day.
All our guests throughout the evening and day complimented the staff on their manner and approach. They were nice, caring and welcoming to our guests. The hotel was complimented over and over again on its decor and many had not been in the hotel before and couldn’t believe from the street what was behind the doors once they walked in. The food got the highest of praise with the featherblade beef being a clear favorite and many noted how second servings of meat and veg came round to their tables. The service was excellent with no delay to any table.
From myself and colm personally, we would like to thank Briona, George, Aidan, Rhiam, Anna and all the staff. Once we pulled up in the wedding car, you were all there to guide us and bring us along the way throughout the evening, making us feel like VIPs for the day.
We will be forever grateful.
Words can’t describe our happiness at picking the hotel for our wedding and how you made us feel on the day but this review will hopefully give you some inclination that the Midlands Park Hotel will forever be a special place in our hearts. We had an amazing day and that comes down to you and the hotel. Thank you so much for everything you did.

Dear Bríona,
We would like to thank you, all the management and staff that helped us prepare for our wedding day.
On the day everything ran like clockwork from a well-oiled machine. It was hypnotising to watch you all work seamless and so well together. You are all amazing people who truly made the day magical for both myself, Damien and all our guests.
Every guest I spoke to that was in attendance at our wedding could not fault the hotel or more importantly the praise they had for all staff members, nothing was too much trouble or effort and you all made ours guests feel as special as we did on the day and the next for those that stayed, for that we cannot thank you enough.
The hotel is something but the staff!! We really have no words to describe how amazing we think you all are. I would recommend the hotel to anyone that will listen, I have had family and friends say that they are definitely booking a weekend in the hotel as the staff are just brilliant.
Well what can we say about the food other than the 2nd and 3rd helpings that some had (my brother had plenty) went down an absolute treat. Every guest raved about the food they were served and how well the service went, no one was left waiting on food, no one had to ask for extra gravy (a bridesmaid loves Gravy). Some started with beef and then had the fish and others did it the other way around, so everyone got what they asked for and so much more.
I am not sure where to put a review on your website so if you want to take anything from the emails and upload it to your website please do so. I will 100,000,000% stand over it.
Again THANK YOU SO MUCH from Catherine & Damien.
We would like to thank you, all the management and staff that helped us prepare for our wedding day.
On the day everything ran like clockwork from a well-oiled machine. It was hypnotising to watch you all work seamless and so well together. You are all amazing people who truly made the day magical for both myself, Damien and all our guests.
Every guest I spoke to that was in attendance at our wedding could not fault the hotel or more importantly the praise they had for all staff members, nothing was too much trouble or effort and you all made ours guests feel as special as we did on the day and the next for those that stayed, for that we cannot thank you enough.

Wow, where do I start! We had our wedding in the Midlands Park Hotel on the 20th of September 2019. From the day we walked through the doors to view the hotel and pay deposit, to the morning we left after our wedding, we were blown away by the kindness and professionalism given to us by all the staff at the Midlands Park hotel. Briona, George & Ana are the dream team! From our many chats and emails with Briona in the lead up to the big day to the day itself I couldnt have expected anything to be done any more perfectly. Briona is amazing at what she does and we always knew we were well looked after in the best hands. Our family and friends all commented on how amazing the hotel was not just its appearance, which is simply beautiful, but the way the day just ran so seamlessly. The food is still being spoken about amongst our guests 4months since the wedding. The featherblade steak being the favourite of the day. I dont think anyone has had a meat like it before, nor will they since it! Anyone who ordered the feather blade steak got to have seconds of roast turkey and ham and vice versa for those who chose the turkey. Many had seconds and thirds. And Ana was on hand to help any of our guests who had special requirements and to ensure that everybody had a full belly for working off on the dancefloor afterwards! And as for George, he is an absolute gentleman! Ensured we weren't stressed or worried on the day and gave us many a laugh during our few trips to the hotel during the planning and prep and he had smiles on our faces throughout the whole day. We hadn't to worry about a thing from start to finish! From the bottom of our hearts we would like to thank you all for making our wedding day the most special day of our lives and for giving us such beautiful memories to remember for the rest of our days! All our love Shannen & Darren O'Reilly ?

I booked the Midlands on the fact the staff were so welcoming and friendly and Couldn't do enough for us, it was the best decision I've ever made. You guys made our wedding day so so special Bríona, Anna and lovely Aidan all of the fabulous staff, nothing was to big or to small for you guys to do, you had so much patience and love for our day and you were there for me in all the lead up as you know some was very hard, but you have left myself Anthony our guests with the biggest smiles on our faces. I want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

The midlands park hotel is the place to get married or have your reception in if you want 5 star quality. From the moment we visited the wedding fair in the hotel up until the morning of the wedding we recieved top class service. Briona the wedding co-ordinatir in the hotel could not do enough for us, she went beyond what you would expect of any wedding co-ordinator. The food was amazing, all of our guests could not believe the service and the quality of food. I highly recommend the team at the hotel .

No problem was too much for the hotel to sort out quickly and to our satisfaction. A great team a great venue and a beautiful working relationship to pull off our wedding on one of the hottest days of the summer last year. The level of care continued even after the day itself with the wedding coordinator Briona keeping our wedding topper safe months after the wedding. It’s gestures like this that make the Midlands Park Hotel unbeatable and truly a magical location. The Banqueting manager George is an absolute conductor and his seamless guidance on the days up to our wedding and on the day it’s self was pure poetry.

Food is fantastic here never had a bad meal in the hotel rooms are great and the staff in general are very good. My biggest argument with them was they made a complete hash of the table arrangements. Sent them in the layout etc and on the day they changed it without letting us know. We only realised when the guests had sat down for the first course that most of my wife's family was to the side or the back and not in the front like we had originally planned for. Had a chat with the manager on the day of our wedding not a great start. They did take money off the final bill as way of apology but that is not much good when you have an upset bride. Overall taking that aside the hotel is brilliant and I would go again. My advice is check the seating plan before any of your guests sit down that way you will make sure that it is how you want it.

Even helped get the matron of honor dress to a local seamstress and back again with a last minute busted zip one hour before the ceremony. I never complete reviews but felt I had to in this instance. I traveled to Ireland to marry my Irish husband and so glad I did. Wonderful staff that deserve praise and recognition for all their hard work.

We both had found our soul mate and the Portlaoise Heritage Hotel just topped it
all off by giving us the best reception any bride and groom could only dream of. To
this day guests from our wedding are still raving about the food they received, the
reception room set up and the accommodation (of course the price was perfect for
our entire guests!).
But unfortunately into the early hours of the morning I took ill (I was not drinking
because I wanted to make the most of my magical day), I took a turn for the worst.
The hotel staff were so thoughtful and helpful to a bride in distress and came
running to help. Turns out I had a stroke (from which I have made a full recovery),
but it didn't ruin my day.
When I look back I don't think of the day I had a stroke but I look at it and think it

My fiancée and I visited the Portlaoise Heritage Hotel a year before we planned to
get married. It wasn’t a big wedding by any means, but our wedding coordinator
explained that they only did one wedding per day so that they could concentrate
purely on that one wedding. Our wedding coordinator Carol couldn’t have been
more helpful and often gave us valuable advice.
So the big day arrived, I got ready in the hotel and the duty manager on the day
was so kind. The banqueting room where our wedding reception was to be held
looked fantastic with large candles, mirror centre pieces and flowers. The food was
excellent and the service was exceptional. The evening reception went off without a
hitch and once more the food that evening was brilliant with plenty to go around.
Everybody commented on how good the food was.
The Bridal suite is so pretty and spacious and the breakfast the next day was far
more than I expected. It even included a bottle of champagne and strawberries.
From start to finish the Hotel were helpful and considerate to all our needs. I would
highly recommend booking the Portlaoise Heritage Hotel for your special day.

After our engagement in Oct 2011, we began looking around for a suitable venue
for our ‘Special Day’, because of the wonderful personal attention we received from
the management and staff and the excellent wedding packages available at The
Portlaoise Heritage Hotel, we quickly made up our minds that this was the venue
for us.
On our wedding day many of our guests commented on the beautiful lay out of the
Maryborough Suite. It looked stunning. The management and staff went out of
their way to ensure that we had the wedding of our dreams. We would have no

the management and staff and the excellent wedding packages available at The
Portlaoise Heritage Hotel, we quickly made up our minds that this was the venue
for us.
On our wedding day many of our guests commented on the beautiful lay out of the
Maryborough Suite. It looked stunning. The management and staff went out of
their way to ensure that we had the wedding of our dreams. We would have no
hesitation in recommending The Portlaoise Heritage Hotel as a wedding venue
with class

We just wanted to let you know how happy Sharon and I were with the top class
service we received leading up to our wedding & on the big day itself.
From the moment we enquired about your wedding packages our wedding
coordinator was very helpful, polite & accommodating. We can't speak highly
enough about her & the work she put in for us in the weeks leading up to our
wedding day to ensure we had a very memorable and perfect day. No request we
made was too big.
On our wedding day the staff and service was second to none - the staff were
excellent, and Roy who was a gentleman, ensured the whole day went as smooth as
it did. The table service at the meal was excellent, the food presentation was
immaculate & everyone spoke very highly of the menu options & how tasty it was.
The chef also deserves a lot of credit for the food he prepared.

We had a magical wedding day at The Portlaoise Heritage Hotel on 15th June.
From the moment we arrived at the hotel we were treated like royalty. Thank you
all so much for such a fab & flawless day. Thanks so much to our wedding
coordinator for all your assistance in the run up to and coming to meet us on our
big day; you were so friendly, helpful, professional & efficient. Thanks to the
managers for all on the day, from meeting us at the entrance and welcomed us with
a glass of bubbly.
The staff were attentive and attention to detail could be seen everywhere, from the
service and assistance we got in the lead up to and on the day. Our guests
absolutely loved the food & service that was outstanding. Our guests all
commented that the food was one of the best meals they had ever tasted at a
wedding before and even a year later we are still getting compliments about the
food and service at our wedding
The service, the food and the atmosphere, was more and beyond what we could have
asked for, it was the stuff memories are made of. Our wedding day was amazing
and we wouldn't have changed a thing. If we were to do it all again we wouldn’t
have to think twice about what hotel to go to

We started out as every couple do, to pick our venue but we didn’t have to go far.
We met with The Portlaoise Heritage Hotel Wedding Planner Carol and instantly
we knew we were at the right place. We discussed in detail all packages available to
us but most importantly she listened to what we wanted. This is one of the biggest
and daunting decisions to make. Knowing that our guests are comfortable and
happy with their meal and reception was imperative to us.
After a few more meetings to finalise details such as seating plans with the Hotel
our day arrived and everything was perfect. We were again greeted to a warm
reception by super staff throughout the day. Prior to our banquet we visited the
reception room and it was just a perfect romantic setting decorated beautifully
with flowers and candles creating a lovely ambiance. Our meal was delicious and
was circulated in an organised, calm manner.
We were reassured every step of the way and we cannot praise our wedding
coordinator Carol and team enough. Our day was a special day and we have fond
memories that will stay with us forever thanks to The Portlaoise Heritage Hotel.

We booked our wedding exactly a year before the date and from start to finish the
hotel and staff were amazing. From the sales staff, bar staff, kitchen staff, waiters,
receptionist, managers and even to the General Manager everyone was so helpful
from the day we booked until we left for our honeymoon. The food was so tasty and
there was plenty of it, each of our 140 guests would agree. Everyone stayed for two
nights and between us we used all the hotels facilities including the bars,
restaurants, gym and swimming pool and everyone thought the facilities and
services were top class. The overall value for money was great from our wedding
package to our guest’s package. The staff on the day were great but more
importantly from the first day we booked the team must of took or made about 500
phone calls to us. They were so helpful that they took calls after work times and
stayed late to help us with any questions we had. They were right beside us every
step of the way, which I think is important so nothing goes wrong. They were
amazing. I would recommend anyone that is interested in booking a wedding or
function to go and see their facilities and meet their team because that is what
convinced us. Thanks again to everyone in the hotel.

Liam and I have just returned from our honeymoon and wanted to follow up with
you to thank the Portlaoise Heritage Hotel team for making our wedding such a
special day. We cannot praise the hotel enough. From our very first meeting with
the hotel right up to our wedding day, the hotel was fantastic. We could not have
asked for a more beautiful day. It went so smoothly we could not believe it. The
whole day was faultless. Nothing was ever too much trouble and anytime we
contacted the hotel we received a very prompt response by email or through a
telephone call. The reception room looked amazing, the food was fantastic and the
service was impeccable. Our wedding was all we hoped for and more, and we will
definitely recommend the Portlaoise Heritage Hotel to friends and family in the
future. Thank you once again for all your help. Holding our wedding at the hotel
was definitely one of the best decisions we made. All our guests commented on the
venue, great atmosphere, beautiful food and excellent service. We appreciate all the
effort that all of the team put in to making our wedding weekend so special for us.

Eddie and I have nothing but excellent reviews from our Wedding Day at the
Portlaoise Heritage Hotel. The staff were brilliant and tended to our every need
with little fuss and complete professionalism. We had approx 260 guests on the day
so our main concern was the service and food quality.... we had nothing to worry
about. Guests on the day had nothing but good things to say about both the service
and the quality of the food.
Staff were pleasant and helpful from the reception desk right through to residence
bar at the end of the night. We would have no problem recommending The
Portlaoise Heritage Hotel as a Wedding Venue

We would recommend the Portlaoise Heritage Hotel as a wedding venue. The
hotel itself is very central and easily located for our guests. The management and
staff were very friendly to us from our first meeting with them at their Wedding
Fair and we were very impressed that staff remembered us some time later when we
decided to proceed with having our reception at the hotel.?
We found all arrangements and dealing with the hotel very easy, the management
were very accommodating throughout. They provided us with ideas which made
ourdayallthemorespecial.

On our wedding day itself the hotel were exceptionally accommodating to our
needs, the food was gorgeous and service was excellent and there was not one word
of complaint amongst our guests in this regard which I rate highly.

Overall I can say when we had our wedding in the Portlaoise Heritage Hotel the
Hotel, Management and Staff were excellent and we would like to thank them for
making our Day go so smoothly and for being so easy to deal with.
