Rathkeale House Hotel
Review
The Rathkeale House Hotel, now under the expert stewardship of Mark and Therese Henry, has been utterly transformed by their no-expense-spared refurbishment. Their approach has stripped the word "boutique" of any pretentiousness, creating a warm, welcoming space with an exceptional eye for detail. The hotel's interiors have also been revitalized with a whirlwind of thoughtful upgrades, ensuring modern comforts while retaining its charming character. Managed seamlessly by the highly experienced Ann Madigan, the Rathkeale House Hotel has quickly become a standout destination, earning well-deserved acclaim. Despite its elevated standards and luxurious touches, this family-owned gem remains surprisingly affordable, offering incredible value. Whether you’re visiting for business or leisure, a stay here promises exceptional hospitality, cozy accommodations, and a memorable experience that’s worth every single cent.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
The Rathkeale House Hotel, now under the ownership of Mark and Therese Henry, offers an exceptional food experience that showcases their commitment to quality and local sourcing. Their chefs take great pride in every dish, reflecting the emphasis on provenance and freshness. On the day I visited, the carvery proved so popular it had completely sold out, a testament to the high demand for their food. Both the Chestnut Tree Bar and the Greenway Bistro are welcoming spaces, open to residents and non-residents alike, offering a diverse menu of delicious options. The friendly staff ensure attentive service, adding to the warm and inviting atmosphere. Whether stopping for a casual bite or a more formal meal, Rathkeale House Hotel is a must-visit destination for food enthusiasts.
