Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Fabulous location and the staff were all fantastic, food was good and the views amazing from the dining room
Negative: The first room we had at the lodge was just too small, the bathroom was also very small, no bath and there just wasn't enough room if you were staying for more than 1 night for all your stuff. It just wasn't worth what it cost, we felt they were trading off the name and the reputation of the Castle. We enquired about whether it was possible to upgrade to the Castle but that was only possible if we were prepared to pay for a Junior Suite at a cost of £3,200 ! They very kindly moved us to a slightly larger room at no cost, which was better but I still don't think it was in the same league as some of the other hotels we stayed in on this trip around Ireland. Staff were all super helpful and lovely and Cong is a delightful little town. My advice would be save up and stay in the Castle !
Summary: Over priced for what it is - save up and stay in the Castle !
