Hotels near Ballyheigue Castle Golf Course, Ballyheigue

We stayed in this hotel in August 2024. Two of the best things about it: the view---amazing! Mountains and hills, and the surrounding landscape is beautiful. The other thing is the attached restaurant---we had dinner one night and it was great. The included breakfast was also amazing---made to order! Now the not so great....not bad, but we felt a little cheated. The room advertised a KING bed. We found out this is a UK-King, not a normal US-King bed. It was the same size as a US-Queen bed. Not a big deal, but they should mention that in the listing. The next thing: There is no AC in any of the rooms. Again, no mention of this in their listing. Not that much of a problem, because it was cool (mid 60's) during our stay, but in order to get the room cooled down, we had to leave the balcony door open, and there was no screen at all. Luckily, we had no birds, or bugs or who knows what in our room when we returned from our outings for the day. Also, on one of the days, it was raining, so the door couldn't stay open---it rained in the room if you did. Not ideal. We are a couple who likes to sleep in a very cold room---we always turn our hotel rooms down to 68 degrees or less when we sleep. Not sure we ever got below 70 in this room. Next....there is no mini-fridge in the room, and no icemaker in the hotel. We had to ask the front desk for any ice bucket, and they had it delivered from the restaurant to our room, but again, not ideal. Lastly, the room is very, very small---only 2 feet between the bed and the wall, so if you plan on spending any time in the room other than sleeping, it's very crowded. PS---this is a very old hotel---needs some updating. The carpet in our room looked new, so that was nice, but the walk to our room has some very old carpet, walls that need painted, and furniture that looks like it's from the 70's or 80's---and VERY well used. For a short stay (a day or two) it's fine, but any longer---stay at a more modern, updated hotel.

On our road trip through southern part of Irland we stoped in Tralee. Tralee is a small town, I think that is the most interesting information about this city. Maybe i am wrong. The Ashe hotel actual i for a such a small town a big hotel, but still charming. It's looks pretty new, and so everything was in good shape. The hotel is not a typical business hotel, so it's decorated in a romantic modern style. The room has a decent size. We had also breakfast in the morning which was served in as buffet, but in addition you could also order a warm breakfast. Everything tasted good and looked god. The only think which as surprising to us was the fact that the porridge was less thick, but still good. So Tralee is not a town you stop for visit, but if if you look for overnight location the Ashe hotel is a good choice.

We recently stayed at The meadows hotel in Tralee for one night , The reception staff where very nice and welcoming our arrival, The double room was large and had a bath with overhead shower and plenty of room for guests toiletries beside the sink which was large , The bed was exceptionally comfortable and the room was well soundproofed so we had a great nights sleep, There are plenty of spacious seating areas for a quiet drink or a lovely bar with background music and a large screen for watching live sports etc but the sound is not to loud as not to be able to have a conversation with anyone, Bar staff also helpful, Breakfast was excellent with your tea/coffee and warm food order taken by the waiting staff who I must compliment for there friendliness and professionalism at all times as nothing was to much bother, You can also help yourself from the continental assortment which again was excellent consisting of fresh fruit, Breads , cereal, jams , Ect , I would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel for a short or long stay if touring this part of the world, Also there is plenty of parking at the hotel so had no problems getting parked in a safe place, Thanks to all the staff who made us welcome we really appreciate it, We will definitely return soon 😁

We had the most wonderful stay in Ballygarry. We were blown away by the attention to detail in every aspect of the hotel. The food, service and facilities were absolutely amazing. On arrival, we used the bicycles that the hotel have to do the new 5km route through Ballyseede woods. It was so lovely to see the grounds and obviously a lot of effort has been but in to extending and maintaining the route. We used the spa two days and it was so relaxing, clean and the staff were so friendly. The outdoor hot tubs were so lovely even in the rain! We ate dinner there also. The food was so tasty and again the service was amazing. We stayed at the bar for drinks afterwards which has a lovely atmosphere. The breakfast the next morning was in the fine dining restaurant and the scenery was beautiful as we got a window seat luckily. The Buffett had a great selection with quality foods and the hot food menu to order was brilliant with lots of choice and so many Gluten Free options. We throughly enjoyed our stay in Ballygarry and will 100% be back.
