Jonathan
The property was lovely old and great relaxing, I strongly recommend!
The room with lovely four poster beds. The location was top and quiet, at a short distance from The Steam Musem. And the area was peaceful, next to the Barton rooms restaurant, motor way, and greenery and the looming castle.

Thoroughly enjoyed my perfect stay on second night of our stay. The staff was attentive and made me feel at home. They gave me an extremely pleasant and well-appointed room with four poster bed and the bedroom. The breakfast was abundant with a great selection of amazing food. Was an easy base for business trip.
Well, Wi-Fi was very poor.

Appreciated my time here. The location was stunning, very close to other decent eateries, all attraction from Kildare Village to Irish stud and the restaurant. Also, it was 20 minutes walk away from Straffan Butterfly Farm which I wanted to visit. The bar was pleasant and food they serve is reasonably priced!

The breakfast was abundant and very good with decaff tea, very good service. The location was excellent, not too far away from The Steam Musem. Plus, it was not far from the fine dining Barton Rooms restaurant, a taxi, and garden.

The venue was absolutely stunning, with beautiful log fires and a romantic ambiance that added to the charm of the occasion. The staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating, making the planning process a breeze. The food was delicious and catered to a variety of tastes, with a must-try chocolate brownie. the option to have the marriage ceremony at the venue was a big plus.
There were a few drawbacks to the experience. The room could have been improved, as there were cracked tiles in the bathroom, scuff marks on the walls, and a lack of tea or coffee-making facilities.

Hotel itself is lovely and rooms are lovely and clean
I booked Barberstown Castle as a treat for my partners 40th Birthday, as a young couple we enjoy having a nice meal and relaxing in a bar with some entertainment. On both Booked.net and Barberstown Castles website, they both said that there was live entertainment on the weekends. What they didn't say was that the live entertainment was someone playing a piano in a different room and that it finished at 11.30, which meant we were sitting there on our own in a bar with nothing happening. Website should have also stated the hotel bar was the same size of our bedroom, it was very small, very dark and seats were very uncomfortable, I do appreciate that it is a bar in a castle and it was fitting in with surroundings, we found sitting in the bar very uncomfortable and boring. If we had of known that the 'Live entertainment' was a piano playing in another room finishing at 11.30pm, I definitely would not have booked this hotel. We were completely disillusioned by this statement and found for the price that we paid for one nights stay that this live entertainment was not acceptable. The restaurant was also very expensive, in fact nothing about this hotel was cheap and considering the current climate, this hotel was booked with high expectations for the price we were paying. €250 per room and €170 for meal and wine is a lot of money for one night in a 4 star hotel, considering we got the cheapest wine on the menu and then to sit in a bar with no entertainment is not acceptable. We spoke to Manager on duty Sat night and asked to see General Manager on Sun but nothing happened. Would not recommend to anyone

My room included a work desk, TV, and a dining area. It was wonderfully appointed and I greatly enjoyed wake-up service, available in it.
The staff - some of them were very rude.
