Clontarf Castle

Clontarf Castle is a luxurious haven tucked away in suburban Dublin , two miles from the heart of the city and just five miles from Dublin Airport . Situated in a quiet peaceful setting, Clontarf Castle Hotel steeped in Irish history and dating back to 1172, offers the guest all the charm and splendor of a unique and royal experience. Clontarf became a significant location in Irish History, more than a century before the Castle was built. Brian Boru, the High King of Ireland, and the famous Battle of Clontarf, on Good Friday, 23rd April 1014 , will always be associated with and central to the history of the Clontarf area. At the time of The Battle of Clontarf, the Clontarf area was wooded with a river flowing by. Many of the rivers in the history of Dublin no longer flow through the same area, as they were re-routed when the city was walled. Like the plot of a chessboard, every detail of design has been carefully considered - the magnificent entrance hall of the castle is a triumph of style. Hanging tapestries adorn the walls, mysterious doorways and roaring fires create an impressive warm beginning. The Castle provides an excellent variety of guest accommodation ranging from deluxe en-suite rooms to luxurious suites fit for a King or Queen. The 111 deluxe en-suite rooms are a splendid collection of carefully designed, superbly fitted guestrooms with generous space and comfort to ensure you can enjoy a relaxing evening’s rest.
