Plantation Lodge ★★★

📍 Plantation Lodge, Drumgill, Kingscourt

"We stayed in the Plantation Lodge last week, as we were attending a wedding in Cabra Castle. Kathleen was the perfect host, so nice and down to earth person. It was as if we knew her all our lives. Bed so comfy, breakfast was fab, the full irish of course. And she dropped us back to the hotel for our car. She has absolutely fabulous dogs , they are so cute. Kathleen made sure our stay was perfect, which it was. I would highly recommend Plantation Lodge, its like home from home."

Castle Arch Hotel
8.3 (109 reviews)

Castle Arch Hotel ★★★

📍 Summerhill Rd, Commons (3rd Division), Trim

"All was favourable except we were stuck in the elevator five minutes in. Also the toilet broke in our room…but the repair was prompt. The place is a bit older so maintenance is likely a bit of a constant effort. And our view was the roof (tar paper). When the place is t full maybe give your guests a better view…. It was very close to all that we wanted to see & do in Trim."

Ardboyne Hotel
8.4 (102 reviews)

Ardboyne Hotel ★★★

📍 Dublin Rd, Navan

"Nice, clean and friendly hotel. In a good location for public transport."

Castle Varagh Hotel & Bar ★★★
"On a positive note the food was very good, however the kitchen is completely let down by the service front of house. Really disappointed to experience this and with the expense of eating out at its current rate. So much work could be done at little or no cost to the hotel to train staff. I asked (with genuine reason) for a table in a little more private area and was given the most public table available. Any food or drink I ordered was given to my companion. I don't think I've ever experienced that anywhere before. There was clear priority given to a group of people - even before they arrived. So their orders were started before my table despite our earlier arrival. Several things asked for didn't arrive. No common sense from waiting staff, and no courtesy whatsoever. The group were passing through.... we are local and I personally would not be returning for this type of service. In a very unusual occurrence the same day, I found myself in another well-known establishment by Lough Ennell with my family and was bowled over by the amazing service despite how absolutely busy they were. It really doesn't take much to serve with a smile and engage with the guests. And it earns tips too of course."

Plantation Lodge ★★★
"Can"t thank Kathleen and Emmet enough. We were there for a wedding at the castle and had a car problem. Kathleen drove us up to the wedding and Emmet fixed our car. Without their kindness we would have been stuck. Very kind and welcoming place to stay. We had room 4 with the bathroom across the hall which was actually perfect as the bathroom is huge so lots of space to get ready as we were 3 girls."

"The hotel is a little old fashioned, but offers good value for money. We booked a double bed, but were given a twin room for our anniversary, which was a little odd."
