Ballon Ballykeenan Pet and Aviary Farm Hotels

"Hotel can not cater for the guest numbers. No parking, could not offer food in the evening, no seats in the bar all evening due to mothers day and a concert. Half hour wait for table at breakfast aswell. "

"Clean room, great location and a thriving bar next door. What more could you want. Carlow was a great place to visit for a few days and would highly recommend it."

"Hotel itself is lovely , the room was clean but definitely aged . The only issue i really had was that the pump on the toliet is extremely loud. Staff were lovely and friendly and breakfast had a great choice and was nice. "

"Lovely hotel in quite village. Excellent rooms, good breakfast, and plenty of parking."

"Lovely stay at lord Beganals. The property is fabulous tastefully decorated and beautiful fresh flowers in the lobby. Staff are very friendly special mention to Karen and Kay breakfast team !! Food in restaurant also delicious and freshly prepared very efficient even though it was very busy Sleepy little village with lovely walk along the river If you want to make this place even more special consider adding a spa or pool. No matter we’ll be back 💚"

"No late night bar,closed at 11.30."

"It is difficult to fault Kilkea Castle as every aspect of the property impressed. The little things therefore matter and small faults in maintenance, which should be dealt with in a luxury property, tend to stand out more. However, that is digging into the fine detail. So, first impressions carried through from first stepping inside with a warm welcome, the engaging housekeeping staff and superbly professional dining/breakfast room staff. On site activities are a nice touch and worth looking at. Food was well prepared and delivered well. Room was well appointed and tastefully decorated in keeping with the overall castle make-over. Would we go back, in a blink of an eye. Well located in Co.Kildare, the castle offers a great location to explore Ireland's spinal counties. Is Kilkea a great location to simply relax at, absolutely. Go on, indulge."

"The staff are fantastic, the room is modern vosy and super vlean. "

"restaurant menu is 1990's fare and very bland "
