Another fantastic New Year in this wonderful Hotel. My family along with two other families arrived in Mount Falcon on Dec 30th to relax after Christmas and enjoy the New Years Ball. From outset we felt extremely welcomed, well looked after and all had another amazing experience there. The newly revamped restaurant is incredible. The Dexter Rib-eye on the bone is probably the best I've had worldwide. We ate in Ballina the first night and had a great meal in Jalan Jalan Chinese restaurant. On Dec 30th we had a magnificent meal at the New Years Ball with exceptional service, exceptional wines included with the meal and a brilliant band. That combined with the fireworks display put on by the hotel made the New Year experience fantastic. On New Years day the adults ate in the restaurant while the teenagers got pizzas delivered from a local takeaway. Our meal was superb. Fish, Steak and an incredible burger along with a great selection of extras all on the menu so something for everyone. The Woodlands Cottage we rented was clean, spacious, with a wonderful open fire and very well equipped. All 20 of us combined felt we could not have had a better experience. Thanks to all the incredible team in the hotel for making the start of 2026 a great experience.

“Beautiful/Fabulous Hotel!”

This hotel is fabulous! From the pool, to the lush green grounds, to the beautiful tent with live music on Saturday nights we had such a wonderful time.

“Dining room experience needs a major overhaul”

We arrived today a our first impression was Wow! The check in process was quick and efficient. We decided to walk the grounds as bags were sorted and deliver to rooms. Trails could become more clearly marked but they were beautiful. We had martinis at the bar before dinner and the bartender did a great job preparing them to our specifications. The dining room experience was very disappointing. We were sat outside in a large tent which had large screens displaying golf??? The table was very wobbly and we asked if they had table shims to correct the problem as our still water spilled on our table. They fumbled trying to fix it and eventually moved us to another table. They did not replace the water. The menu makes no sense. We were looking forward a C nice bottle of wine and steaks however we had to order most options for two persons with little options. After questions we gave up and ordered a Langoustine starter and the Cod Main with 2 sides and a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc. The wine did not arrive until we flagged down our server. The wine bucket was placed at the other end of the table as our which I had to move as our stained glasses were never refilled. The Langoustines were cold and watery and continued less than 2 oz of meat. The cod was then delivered in cold bowls with sides and were over salted. Poor food, poor service and premium prices???

“Fabulous staff, jury is out on the marquee”

On approach the house looks a little disappointing as the formal frontage cannot be seen and instead you drive towards the modern rear extension which looms somewhat ahead. However, once out of the car and we did find the picturesque building promised in the advertising. The staff were lovely, Catherine in the front desk could not have been warmer. Our room was huge although disappointingly it was in the modern extension that I had not wanted. The furniture gave the feel of an old building so not all was lost. Bathroom enormous and water pressure fantastic. The bed was vast with nice bed linen, although pillows could have been softer. Tea, coffee and the most delicious homemade biscuits were also in the room. The Spa was lovely. The young lady was friendly and helpful; even when we arrived 15 mins before closing to warm up after being out in the rain (thank you). Breakfast was amazing with the best granola I’ve ever eaten! It looked so good I broke my never eat granola whilst staying in a hotel rule. It was served in a lovely old restaurant in the hotel and was perfect. Now we come to the marquee for dinner. Sorry, Mount Falcon, but I just cannot get over this. I had my reservations while booking (excuse the pun) and I was not wrong. It has to be said the marquee was beautiful and not cold despite the howling wind and rain outside, but it was still a marquee. Our stay was at the end of the season, the hotel was was quiet and the marquee even more so. The first evening we were probably one of 30 in a marquee that must hold around 150 people. On the second night we were alone! There was live music but think more 1980s cabaret and less historic Ireland! Needless to say the intimate, romantic weekend planned was replaced by an amusing, silly one. The waiting staff was just the right degree of attentive, helpful, and lovely. The food was truly delicious. I found the lobster a little overpriced but not disappointing and the Château Brianne couldn’t have been better. The vegetables were delicious and reasonable portions although I was rather surprised that the (out of place) garlic mushrooms came in a crispy crumb! Sadly the marquee was a deal breaker and spoilt the intimate weekend away we sought. I would have been disappointed but the warn staff and excellent food did go along way to make up for it.
