Conrad Mount Juliet Hotel

We stayed at Mount Juliet for one night, dinner bed and breakfast. I was aware that the room we were staying in was not located n the main house and I was prepared for this . However. I was not prepared for the very strong smell of smoke that greeted us on entering the room. Having asked specifically for a non smoking room ,I immediately asked for the room to be changed. It took the staff over an hour to do this. The member of staff that we dealt with was so nice and extremely helpful but there was not a manager in sight. We had dinner... more

My husband and I have just come back from a weekend in this beautiful hotel. Unfortunately on our 1st night we stayed in the Rose Cottages (which were lovely and big) as our room in the main house had a leak, then we stayed the 2nd night in a beautiful room at the top of the house. Staff were really apologetic and we had some champagne as an apology which was a lovely touch. We ate in Kendals the 1st night and the The Lady Helen on the 2nd night, food and service were excellent on both nights. The really nice thing about this hotel is has a... more

Mount Juliet is gorgeous! I was disappointed that we only stayed one night because we really didn't have time to take advantage of the grounds, or horseback riding, or golf. The place is not cheap, but it's completely worth the money you pay. We closed down the bar watching American football with a group of people from Florida and Dublin. Definitely worth a stay. We stayed in the Hunters Yard and it was gorgeous.

As soon as we arrived at Mount Juliet we felt compelled to leave our expertly appointed room and explore the grounds. The short walk down the steep path to the horse paddocks was worth every step. There were four foals and their mothers in one of the paddocks – Breathtaking. Not only were their horses in the field, there were also some of the largest cattle I have ever seen in my life that grunted, moo’d and snorted as we approached the fence, but they did not move. Next to the paddocks is a stream. If you look very closely, you... more

I absolutely LOVED this hotel. Thomastown is a bit off the beaten track (but you HAVE to go there anyway to see the wonderful Jerpoint Abbey). This hotel is set out in the country next to a stud farm. The Irish countryside is beautiful and this gem of a hotel fits right in. Good points: The room was very large with a great view of the river and fields beyond. The service was very friendly and helpful. Bars were never crowded and very relaxing after a day of touring or golf. Very quiet (both rooms and public... more

Truly beautiful estate. Rather inconvenient access from Dublin (2.5hrs drive) but it is worth a visit. Not a place for young couples but rather for enthusiastic golfer, fishing fans, hikers and Equestrians. It would be able to better cater to people who simply want to relax if they improve the Spa facility which is not bad, however, has too few therapist and too easily booked up for weekends. I myself is an equestrian thus had a wonderful stay. They have good options for riding courses and instructors are well trained and... more

I looked forward to staying in this hotel as it was reported as being a quality hotel, was part of the Conrad group, and was one of 20 hotels I had booked on a 65 day world holiday. What a shame it was so bad. Everything from the indifferent attitude of the check in receptionist, to painted vanity top in the bathroom, dirty and old floor tiles in the bathroom, to the flaking varnish on the 80's coffee table and furniture, suggested a tired hotel that was long overdue for a refurb. I acknowledge that our rooms were not in the main... more
