An unrivalled reputation for the quality and value of short breaks offered, and a dedication to giving personal service, make Dunraven Arms Hotel in Adare, Co Limerick an outstanding example of contemporary Irish hospitality at its best
Established in 1792, the Murphy family’s large hotel in Adare has somehow retained the comfortable ambience of a country inn. A very luxurious inn nevertheless, and operated under the personal management of Bryan and Louis Murphy.
The furnishing standard is superb throughout, with antiques, private dressing rooms and well-planned bathrooms a feature of all 86 bedrooms, plus excellent amenities for business and private guests (interconnecting family rooms are available), all complemented by a high standard of housekeeping.
It’s a great base for sporting activities - equestrian holidays are a speciality and both golf and fishing are available nearby - and also ideal for conferences and private functions, including weddings (which are held beside the main hotel, with separate catering facilities).
The hotel has earned an unrivalled reputation for the quality and value of short breaks offered, and there is an ongoing determination to combine personal service and quality with value, which makes Dunraven Arms an outstanding example of contemporary Irish hospitality at its best.
This dedication to quality extends to the superb breakfast offered.
A path from the hotel to the beautiful nearby riverside walk was completed in 2008, and it has made an enormous difference to the enjoyment of a stay here.
