Staff were lovely. More than helpful. Our driver from south restaurant to hotel was so lovely. The food was gorgeous. I had asked about gluten free for dinner and just wasn’t confident with the reply. Drinks were lovely. Gluten free full Irish breakfast was lovely. Just wish there had of been some cereal and pastries. But there was nothing outside of the fry for gluten free.

Absolutely amazing property. All the staff- front desk and concierge, porters, shuttle drivers, restaurant staff, housekeeping staff, spa staff, grounds crew, etc were all extremely friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The room was beautiful with its decor, view of the grounds, space, sitting area, large tub, available water and coffee. It was such a treat to have the room prepared for evening with the chocolate on the pillow. Such a special treat! The variety of activities available were great. The breakfast was delicious with great assortment and the food served in the other areas were also very tasty. Wonderful walking paths and trail. Overall, outstanding stay and great way to start our Ireland adventure.

Home away from home

We had a fabulous 2 night b&b stay in a standard room. Room was well equipped, bath and shower, make up mirror, fridge and a nespresso machine together with complimentary bottled water. Being able to sit in the library or drawing room for a drink in front of an open fire was lovely. The staff treat you like friends and it's a real homely feel which is very comfortable and relaxing. We used the pool and gym facilities which are good but a bit out of the way in a different building to the main hotel.

Elegant Hotel with Great Service at Grand Hotel!

My husband and I took a trip to celebrate a milestone anniversary and stayed for two nights at the K Club in Kildare on our way back to Dublin. We wanted to see more of the beautiful Irish countryside and and Japanese gardens that are part of the Irish National Stud and Gardens and decided to use the K Club as our base to explore the area. We were greeted by a very friendly representative who also told us that our room had been upgraded to one with gorgeous views of the river and countryside. The room was very comfortable and elegant and we also saw that the hotel had acknowledged our anniversary with a small chocolate cake which was a very thoughtful gesture. Breakfast was delicious. There was a small buffet but you could then order more items from an a la carte menu. We ate dinner at the Palmer Restaurant one evening and the South Bar and Restaurant the next and enjoyed the meals at both places. The K Club has a world famous golf course and had just hosted the Irish Open and still had golfers all around their grounds. We explored the extensive hotel and gardens and took lots of pictures. All the staff we met were very personable and helpful and we enjoyed talking to them. We enjoyed our stay here at the K Club. Thank you!
