My first trip to Ireland was back in 1987. I was lucky enough to have a room booked at Bunratty and to meet the Brownes. What good fortune for me. The friendly atmosphere, the lovely rooms and cleanliness of the entire lodge make you so welcomed. Mary serves the most wonderful breakfast. You have so many choices it is hard... more

We began and ended our week's stay in Ireland at Bunratty Lodge. It was, honestly, perfect. We were greeted warmly by Mary and shown to our immaculately clean rooms. Our teens appreciated their own room with coffee/tea making service. The showers were hot and powerful. We took advantage of the breakfast the first morning, which was absolutely delicious and kept... more

We received a very warm welcome and greatly enjoyed our stay. The location is convenient to Shannon airport, the rooms are very nicely furnished, and the sitting room and breakfast room are quite attractive. Also, the rates are very reasonable. Please note that credit cards are not accepted. Travelling with our son, we had a room with a double and... more

What can I say but that my wife and I had a great experience at Bunratty Lodge. Mary made us reservations for the castle banquet (fun, fun, fun!!). The room was comfortable and cleaner than a lot we stayed in around Ireland. She has awards on the wall for her breakfast and I can see why. The home baked bread... more

Our room was very nice, and at the back end of the hall. It had two double beds which were comfortable. The shower is quite hot and powerful. Mary is charming, and the sitting room was nice. Her house is just down the road from the castle and Durty Nelly’s. To save tourists money, she has discontinued breakfast, so we... more

We had a lovely stay at the Bunratty Lodge. The establishment is nice and spacious with comfortable sitting areas. Mary was kind and very helpful with anything we needed to help our travels. Would recommend this B and B to travelers wishing to visit Bunratty. more

Very comfy B&B (really more like an inn). Mary was so sweet and attentive. Made our last night in Ireland very comfortable. Easy to get to the airport from Bunratty Lodge. If you want to go to Bunratty Castle, it would be quite a walk, but an easy straight shot to drive. Very nice place to stay! more

We stayed there only for 1 night, before the flight back home to US. For just the 2 of us - we had a huge room (1 king size bed and 2 queens) which Mary (our gracious host) thought would come in handy for packing. We did not have enough time to enjoy the Bunratty Lodge – we had an... more

We stayed September 14, 2007. Mary Browne was very friendly and helpful. She was able to tell us what time we needed to leave for the airport. She even prepared breakfast a little early so we could eat. The traditional Irish breakfast was very good. The jam was wonderful - a mixture of fruits. We had the family room and... more
