People Say The Kindest Things
Absolutely everything. From start to finish you all made it the best experience of our lives.
Ciara is an amazing person and was just a joy to plan our wedding with. I don’t think there would be anything she would not do to help 🙂 I thoroughly enjoyed dealing with Ciara, it was ike dealing with a friend. She made the day flow so smoothly.
The venue is just amazing and our guests are still in awe. I think it is the staff that give it that something special though. From the porter to the barmen in the late residence bar – we were treated like royalty. Someone always was checking in with Fergal and I and we were treated so well at the top table.
The lady that seemed to be in charge of the top table was a true joy to deal with too. She even helped us the next day even though she was busy setting up the ballroom again.

Having Kilronan and the staff by your side for your big day (Wedding) makes everything just tick along. Even with being delayed and stuck in England because of the weather we still managed to get everything shifted to accommodate for our late arrival. Everything still went smoothly and nothing was too much for the staff to sort out.

Our experience with Kilronan (especially Ciara) was absolutely excellent. From day 1 to the wedding day everything was made simple with nothing left to chance. The Setting, Staff and Food were all of the highest standard. All our guest were so well looked after and we were made feel so special. We could not recommend Kilronan highly enough

First class staff, nothing was too much for our wedding coordinator, he made sure everything went smoothly from start to finish, staff did a fantastic job decorating the room and the food was beautiful.

“We had our wedding in Kilronan Castle last July. We had a terrific experience. From the moment I stepped inside, I knew this venue was special. We were met by Simon who was very helpful and assured us throughout the whole process not to worry, that everything would be perfect and indeed it was. It was everything we hoped for and more. Simon was very efficient with replies to our emails and dealt with every request. No job was too big. The whole weekend from start to finish was great. The professionalism and friendliness of the Kilronan staff was remarked upon by many of our guests. They went out of their way to make our families and guests feel very welcome. Things ran according to schedule as we had requested. The food was fabulous, both the wedding food and the super buffet for breakfast the next morning. The views and scenery from the Dungeon Bar are spectacular and it was an ideal location for the drinks and welcome reception. Overall, I cannot recommend Kilronan highly enough. Anybody who has their wedding there is in for a treat. Am really looking forward to returning for a visit soon.”

”Kilronan Castle holds a very dear and special place in my heart and goes back a long way in my personal history and indeed in the history of mine and Jonathan’s relationship. Having my wedding there for me, was a dream come true. It is a truly special place, with all the charm and atmosphere that goes with a venue of its history and standing. I am proud she stands in my home County of Roscommon and is open and running as a wedding venue of outstanding quality. With Lough Meelagh stretched out in front the views are just gorgeous, relaxing and peaceful. It is a lake with magic in it and, one day soon we will swim her! The food and wine at Kilronan is always excellent and they are well renowned far and wide for their excellent wedding fare and that is what we got on our special day. The room (the Palm Court) we got married in was laid out beautifully. The atmosphere was warm, personal and very special. Everything that could be done for us, was done for us. Meeting with the hotel Wedding Planner (Simon Petka) was always a pleasant experience and stress and hassle free. He made us feel so comfortable from the beginning and took us through everything with good humour and professionalism.The venue was one thing we did not have to worry about being right on the day, from the very first meeting we just had no doubt that it would be perfect. Everything we needed at the venue and more was made available to us. As we also got married there, they managed the entire event so once we were heading for the venue on the day it was all out of our hands, and in hands we knew we could trust 100%. From our first meeting at Christmas 2016 with Simon, to book the venue, to our last meeting 2 days before, to the tastings, staying the night of our tasting, to picking the menus, to handling our extra requests and our guest’s bookings… everything could not have been any better and it was made to feel like a journey, a journey that should be relished and enjoyed at every moment, and it was! Our day, was a ‘top-notch’ day, at a very very special venue with the most amazing team of staff. All our guests are still talking about it a month later and I know still will be for months and years to come. We have nothing but good things to say. It was a special and fun day, managed by professionals, with food and wine of an excellent standard served by efficient, professional and super super friendly and helpful staff, right down to the lovely doormen who made me feel very special for the few days we stayed there. We cannot say a big enough or more heartfelt …. THANK YOU KILRONAN!”

“We got married in Kilronan Castle last Friday, 22nd September. The service we received was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Monica Feeney was our wedding coordinator & she was absolutely brilliant. There was no request too big & she ensured everything ran smoothly on the day. In the lead up she was always on hand to help us all she could. We had a few additional requests for the day & there was never an issue. All the staff were just so professional, helpful & attentive. Monica made the day so easy & stress free. She was brilliant to have around. I would recommend Kilronan Castle to anyone. Our guests are still talking about it, not one bad word has been said. Everyone was so impressed with the venue & the service. I would recommend Monica as well as she gave us the 5 star service & was a pleasure to work with & have around on the day.”
Emma & Jonathan Breach September 2017
We had our wedding here on January 1st 2017. It is a fantastic venue for a wedding. I couldn’t recommend it enough. Amazing venue, amazing food and most of all amazing staff. We even had our after party at Kilronan Castle the next day and myself and my husband were loving Kilronan Castle castle so much that we stayed a 3rd night which wasn’t planned. We didn’t want to leave.
I can’t leave a review without thanking the staff for everything they did to make our special day so incredible. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and they catered to our every need. In fact they went above and beyond.
A special thanks to Laurence, Ann and Ciara at Kilronan Castle as they really made sure our wedding was a very special and magical time.

“The whole experience of having our wedding at Kilronan Castle last Friday was fantastic from start to finish. We cannot speak highly enough of the service, help and support that we received leading up to the wedding and the days following thereafter. This is without doubt down to the commitment of your team. Our guests are raving about how helpful and friendly the staff are at Kilronan and they felt that nothing was too much trouble. Can we please mention a few of the team who we want to give special praise and thanks to Tom, Michael, Lawrence, Henry, Anne and Caroline. Biggest thank you of all must go to Simon. From our very first contact with him in March 2015 to 15 months later, his commitment and professionalism were always first class. He is an excellent ambassador for Kilronan. Organising a wedding from England was made easy because of him and the day worked like a dream. In all honesty it exceeded all our expectations.”

“We had our wedding at Kilronan Castle on 27th February and we cannot compliment it enough. As a wedding venue it is absolutely fabulous; the surroundings, the candle lit corridor down to the ballroom, the dungeon bar, the rooms and the service was absolutely outstanding. We would like to say a huge thank you from the bottom of our hearts to our wedding coordinator, Sam. From start to finish she was fantastic, she made the whole process stress free and fun. Living in the UK, it can be difficult to organise a wedding however Sam made it feel like a breeze, always accommodating us when we were home in Ireland. Nothing was ever too much to ask her and she always made us feel at ease and most importantly ensured that it was our day and that everything was the way we wanted it and not the way the venue wanted it. We would also like to say thank you to all of the staff at the Castle as everyone was so friendly and helpful to us and our guests. We felt so important for the whole weekend, they truly couldn’t do enough for us. Of course one of the most important aspects of a wedding venue is the food and the feedback we received on both the food and service during the reception was truly amazing. The whole day went perfectly and I have no doubt it was down to their professionalism. If you are in any doubt about Kilronan Castle as a venue, don’t be, it was outstanding.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Kilronan and their fantastic staff. My husband and I loved every minute of our day there. The food was amazing. Ann took great care of the top table! Ciara & Monica looked after us from the start and made planning the wedding so easy & enjoyable, nothing was too much trouble for them and they offered great advice. You would not regret booking your wedding with Kilronan Castle.”
Grace Costello & Brendan Noud, 2016
“We had our wedding in Kilronan Castle on 26 November 2016 and we can honestly say that it was the most wonderful day of our lives. Myself and my mum visited Kilronan Castle earlier in the year and we knew instantly that this venue was superb. Our wedding co-ordinator, Monica, was soo helpful from the first time we met. She responded to all our queries and recommended excellent suppliers (photographers, videographers, b&b’s, florist, bands, djs etc) and this made our lives very easy. I felt that I had discussed every detail of the wedding with Monica well in advance of the wedding so that there was nothing really to do the day before the wedding except to relax and enjoy time with family and friends. I got to stay two nights in the amazing bridal suite which was soo comfortable and such a beautiful setting to get ready in on the morning of the wedding. On the wedding day itself, all our guests were delighted with the food and drinks. They were especially impressed by the quality of service provided by all the staff in Kilronan and the beautiful scenery that surrounds the castle. The I would recommend this hotel to any couple getting married.”

“We had an absolute blast of a time and we cant thank the staff enough for all that they did for us from the start. Everyone was excellent from start to finish and our guests were blown away by the place and that made life very simple for us also.”
Aideen Egan & David Diffley, 2015
“Kilronan gave us amazing day that we will never forget. All our guests loved the venue and thought the castle was absolutely amazing along with the staff, service & food. Thank you so much again to you & all the team.”
