Thank you for taking the time to write this review on behalf of your husband. I have posted your comments regarding the service received both in the hotel & restaurant to the staff notice boards. Our Wicklow Golf Tours package has proven to be very popular, so maybe they might come back to us to play another three rounds soon.... More

This is a magnificently historical hotel in a beautiful location. The rooms are spacious and the beds comfortable. I had the best roast beef EVER in the hotel's restaurant. The best thing about the hotel is the sense of history in every room.

My Partner and I stayed at the Woodenbridge Hotel in their Lodge Rooms. We arrived at approx 1pm and even though check-in was not meant to be until 3pm they quickly organised things so that we could check-in straight away. We were given room 319 in the lodge. It is the last room on the lower corridor and has a... More

Stayed here for a wedding. The location is amazing and beautiful. The staff were nice and helpful and the food was really good. We were given a room above the bar which was clean but very old fashioned and basic, although this didnt bother us much. However when we were trying to sleep at about 2.30 / 3.00am the bar... More
