Beautiful relaxing stay

From start to finish it was a lovely relaxing stay at The Brehon. Bar food was great and kane the barman was fab. He really looked after us. Dining room was also fab. Patric looked after our every need. Breakfast was plentiful and really good too. I had a massage and facial in the spa and i would highly recommend Irena. It was amazing. We stayed in one of the heritage rooms and it was really nice. Good hairdyer , diffuser and straightners provided. Robes and slippers and also a fridge. Beds were really comfy and the shower was great.100% we will be back to The Brehon.

Amazing stay 10/10

We had a fantastic stay at the Brehon. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly. We availed of the vitality suite facilities and the gym. Our room was perfect, extremely comfortable and had a hair dryer, iron, tea/coffee making facilities. We also had dinner in the bar which was lovely and great cocktails! Breakfast the next morning was also excellent - we had a menu to order from and could avail of a buffet. We really enjoyed our stay and can’t wait to return!

The check-in staff were exceptionally friendly and explained that they would accommodate an earlier check-in as soon as our room was ready. The lobby is really stunning, with fireplaces and a cozy ambience. The bar and restaurant on site were really nice too. I would recommend staying for breakfast, which we did. The breakfast spread exceeded my expectations. As we stayed on weeknights in January, it clearly was not the '' busy '' time of year. However, even though it wasn't that busy the spa of the hotel still had quite a few people in it. The spa facilities were beautiful, but I would imagine during the high season this gets overrun and wouldn't be as relaxing.
