    Not much I didn't like comfortable clean but basic

    Accommodation was satisfactory. Everything we needed. Hotel close by. A lady in the hotel was amazing when we ordered tea and sandwiches during a very busy dinner service. Over and above what I expected

    The restaurant in the bar area made the bar look very restauranty and a bit uncomfortable. Most of the staff were amazing however we were shown to a table that hadnt been wiped down at all and the table was cleanedwith a dirty cloth while we were sitting at the table ....a lovely waitress came over to take our order but was called away by the manageress who had initially sat us at the dirty table .very unprofessional.

    The room was big and very comfortable..the views are next to none....lovely walks as well...hotel looks gorgeous...staff generally lovely and live music was a lovely bonus. Over all we reallyenjoyed our stay

    Our room was facing the parking lot and we would have preferred the other side

    The location was amazing. The staff were very helpful and nice . The room a bit old style but very clean and comfortable.

    Despite the issue with the bed I would be happy to return. It’s worth it for the location alone.

    The mattress on the bed was so soft it felt like we were on a water bed! Every time one of us moved the other rolled involuntarily. Luckily there was a single bed in the room so my husband moved into that, otherwise neither of us would have gotten any sleep. It was also a bit disappointing to discover breakfast was not included in the price at €367 for 2 nights in May.

    Food and service were really good. In particular the food at the Lodge was really good. The staff were so welcoming and friendly. The location is stunning and so calming which was helped by the fact that the sun shone all weekend.

    The rooms in the lodge don't seem to have sound-proofing and it was very distracting hearing the boys next door getting ready for their night out singing along to house music on the Saturday evening.

    I had dinner in the hotel on the first night and it was superb!! Staff were very friendly and helpful. It took a few minutes to figure out checking into the lodge on the first day but once that was sorted it was fine.

    Unfortunately the hotels drink prices are almost extortionate. As there is no competition in the immediate vacinity I feel the hotel are taking advantage of their customers here. 4km away a bar serves me a bottle of beer for €5 which is what I pay for it at home and in other places I have stayed. The hotel however, charges €6.10 for the same bottle of beer. It was the only unfortunate part of our stay

    Excellent staff all throughout hotel and Lodge. Food was exceptional. Entertainment over the weekend was a nice bonus

    The rooms were cold. Radiator was turned off. Even when I turned it on, it still didn’t work..The hotel is slightly dated but we did have a lovely (if a little cold) stay! Friendly staff, great place for some late drinks.

    lovely homely hotel with a great bar and a more modern ‘lodge’ building across the street..

    I was working so I couldn't spend more time there !

    I have a long history with woodenbridge hotel and this is my first review , the lovely receptionist asked had I stayed before but I couldn't remember..now I remember alright ! and if I told you how I didn't remember..i wouldn't be believed !!! But I digress ! This time I stayed on my own and was able to really enjoy what they have to offer , the sound of the river Aughrim roaring past the lodge .. music to a nature lovers ears ☺️ Situated in the fairest vale of them all but only 10/15 mins from the M11 it's an ideal location to set off on an adventure in the garden of Ireland or for work as was my purpose. The staff the food and not forgetting the hotel and its location are amazing so I would definitely recommend the woodenbridge hotel for a stay . Thank you ! 🙏
