I had my wedding here Monday and all I can say is amazing. The hotel was truly fantastic. They arranged a room for my bridesmaids and I to get ready in. They rang up when any of the suppliers arrived to let me know they were on the way up to the room. The ceremony room was magical –chair covers, lanterns, red carpet and flowers ( I don’t currently have any photos as it was only on Monday 20th June but I will upload). After the ceremony our guests were escorted to a private bar while we got our photos taken. Our guests were treated to a champagne reception. The meal call was at 5.30 with the food served promptly at 6 o clock. Delicious hot food for everyone – it was fantastic. I really can’t say enough about how great the hotel was. Our rooms were huge and spacious particularly liked the double Jacuzzi in our room and the amazing views of the grounds.It wasn’t just the rooms and the hotel that were fantastic , a huge thanks to all at the Knightsbrook staff for making my wedding day, the day of my dreams.
A particular mention to Sinead A Coll thank you so much. Looking forward to heading back down for my anniversary next year. Any potential brides make sure and check this hotel out. 1,472 reviews sorted by: We stayed here for 1 night, because we were at a wedding reception in the hotel.The hotel is beautiful and the food served was also great. Our room was really spacious and spotlessly clean. We definitley will be going back again. We were at a friends wedding here and its the oddest location we've ever been to. Its right in the middle of a housing estate!!!! Its a massive hotel and you could get lost in it as there are so many other guests walking around that theres no intimacy. Food was not great at all. More of a ''churn them out'' place...Room was fine, nice and warm, though shower was freezing.Dont think I'd be running back for any sort of a break. Well we can only describe the hotel an Amazing! We recently had our wedding at The Knightsbrook Hotel and stayed on for a second night with 32 friends.
Everybody agreed that the location of the hotel, and the facilities are fabulous. We obviuosly stayed in the bridal suite, which was stunning but had a look at some of our friends rooms. These too were fab and the cleanliness was of a very high standard. Having spent alot of time at the hotel in the lead up to our big day, we ate on numerous occasions. The food is of a very high quality and the spread that is put on for breakfast is fantastiC. You have a huge range of choice, from the typical irish fry up to something more simple such as cereal or crossaints. They even serve waffles! The hotel has a magnificent golf course and great lesuire facilities also. The pool was lovely too.Although we did not need to avail of the facilities, the hotel also have a great programme of activities and entertainment for children, especially during midterms.And finally the staff at the hotel are so helpful, friendly and can not do enough for you to ensure your stay is a pleasent one. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone thinking of taking a trip to Trim, as the little town is only a short walk away and has stunning views from Trim Castle.
Room Tip: Ring reservations directly. Recently stayed at the hotel for a night with my Fiance, as he had a voucher. This was our second time staying in the hotel and my 4th time dining there. There are many good points to the hotel but unfortunately there are many negative ones too. On arrival, the reception area is large, clean and well presented however the receptionists are not friendly and do not offer as much as a warm smile to welcome us. Our room was big and nicely furnished, the bathroom was clean and spacious. However, the bed linen is too small for the beds and poorly made. The matress protector was not properly on and the undersheet did not cover the top of the bed. While amending this we noticed there were some large stains at the top of the duvet cover. We mentioned this to the receptionists on our way to dinner and it was subsequently changed. The food in the restaurant was as always of excellent quality. There is a large selection of dishes and the menu shows that most ingredients are sourced locally.
It's a shame that the restaurant staff let it down. Waitresses with heavy make up, false nails and chipped nail varnish is not appropriate for a 4 star hotel or any restaurant for that matter. Their lack of interest is apparent. After our main courses were cleared, we had a long wait for our dessert menus, by which time we had to get someones attention to get them. Perhaps this is due to too many people serving the one table, so one doesn't know what the other has done. The restaurant wasn't even full that night, so the delay would be inexcusable. Another thing we noticed was that once a table had been vacated, the dishes were not cleared away, making the restaurant look very untidy and unorganised. As previously stated, this was my 4th time to eat at the hotel and each time I received the same lacklustre service. By the time we got back to our room we realised that it was situated right over the function room and there was a wedding in full swing. The music was very loud and we felt that we were at the wedding, rather than hearing low background mucic.
This made for a very bad nights sleep. The heat in the room was also unbearable, no airconditioning from what we could see. We were initially unable to open our window due to the noise. All in all, the hotel is hugely disappointing and it goes to show that it doesn't matter how superb the food is, or how well the hotel is presented, if the service is poor, that's what people will remember.Included complimentary in all our Wedding packages a gift from us to you…… Prosecco reception for the Bridal party on red carpet Fresh floral centrepiece or candelabra on each table with special arrangement for Top Table Crisp white chair covers and white linen napkins as standard Choice of Chair sash covers to match with wedding theme Inscribed Crystal memento as our special gift for the Bride & Groom on the day Idyllic indoor and outdoor surroundings for all your photo opportunities on the day Complimentary wedding cake stand with specialised knife for cutting
