클리프 앳 리옹스

Stayed for 1 night bed and breakfast overlooking Lilly Pond. The grounds were very nice. Bedrooms were dreary, chairs torn, furniture badly marked and cables hanging down from TV which had only 2 stations. Bathroom was very big and seemed recently refurbished with nice rainfall shower and 2 sinks. The thermal village has 2 jacuzzi's/saunas which were complimentary (but stay overpriced in first place). Didn't have to book thermal village but you might have to awkwardly share if it's busy. Dinner was good but overpriced. Steak €48 which didn't include sides. Glass of wine €15, cocktails €17. Breakfast was good with good quality ingredients. Also nice coffee shop onsite. No entertainment or TV in the bars. Staff were very nice but it's like a wedding venue. Better options like Carton House or Mount Juliet imo.

We had pleasure of staying at this charming boutique hotel, and it was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The standout feature of the hotel is undoubtedly its fantastic restaurant. The menu offers beauriful dishes, prepared with the freshest ingredients, and each course was fantastic. The cheese cart was especially wonderful. The ambience in the dining area was warm and inviting, and the staff were friendly and attentive. There were some mistake with our order and bill but these were quickly rectified. The bar with its wood burning fire, is a cozy retreat, perfect for unwinding after a day of relaxation. We especially enjoyed the spa, the treatments are luxurious, and I highly recommend indulging in one of their signature therapies for a complete rejuvenation. One of the most unique aspects of the spa is the copper bath experience. It's a truly indulgent and memorable activity that adds a touch of opulence to your stay. The copper tubs are not only aesthetically stunning but provide an incredibly soothing experience, allowing you to completely unwind and relax. After the baths we enjoyed sorbet and herbal tea by the fire in the relaxation room. Overall, this boutique hotel excels in every area, offering a perfect blend of comfort, luxury, and exceptional service. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat, a culinary experience, or a day of pampering, this hotel has it all. Highly recommended!

We hosted a large family event in the Orangery. I’ve been going back and forth as to whether to write this review, but have decided to do so because for the amount we paid, I felt the experience was a bit disappointing. The good: the venue looks beautiful. If you’re seeking nothing but nice photos of the place, you’re on to a winner. Although the cost of hosting an event here was very steep, we decided to go for it as we really liked the look of the place and it was a special day for our family. Cliff charge a venue hire fee in addition to the cost per meal. Plus there’s a compulsory 12.5% service charge on food and beverage. So it mounts up. Even the kids’ meals and baby bowls are expensive. First issue on the day: the Orangery gets incredibly warm. We’re talking make-up sliding off guests’ faces and feeling too hot in a light summer dress. The heat was such that most of our guests had to go outside for air between each course, which broke up the party a bit. And that particular day wasn’t even that sunny outdoors. I dread to think what it would be like on a very hot day - I don’t know how a bride would manage! The annoying thing was that there were aircon units dotted around the Orangery which could have helped, but they were all turned off bar one. My family also noted some vents which appeared to be closed. Don’t know why the place was not properly ventilated or cooled when there was the means to do so. The event manager I dealt with prior to the event was mostly helpful and accommodating. However there was one oversight which negatively impacted our day. Our baby daughter can’t yet sit up in a highchair. Prior to the event, I had asked for a space at the table to be left clear between my husband’s chair and mine so we could put her pram in between us. When we arrived, this had not been done. I spoke to the event manager on the day (a different person to who I’d previously dealt with). He had obviously not been told about this request - it had been forgotten about. I asked about moving the chairs. He mentioned that this would mean changing the whole table plan and indicated that it would be an imposition. So we just left it. Our daughter ended up stuck behind our backs in a walkway. Her pram was in the way of both waitstaff and guests. If there had been a space left between us, she would have been happy as she could have seen us and we could have taken a moment to eat while still interacting with her. As it was, she had to be taken up and held throughout the meal as she understandably got lonely not being able to see us. Such a simple thing but the oversight really impacted our day, and I felt sad that there was no space left for her at the table as the day was supposed to be in celebration of her. The starter was lovely, the main was ok. For dessert I ordered churros. They were tiny, dry and burnt - almost inedible. I could see that other guests left them unfinished as well - disappointing when we paid so much for the meal. We’d preo

We came to cliff at lyons for sisters night away and to say it exceeded our expectations is an understatement. The grounds, cottages and facilities are all stunning. Breakfast and dinner were also a treat. The mill opens out onto a little waterfall, nature at its best. Staff were extremely accommodating and well trained. We will definitely be back.

We had our wedding on 17th of May. The venue was Cliff at Lyons. Right from the start we had full support from Janie, our POC with CAL. She guided us through all the necessary preparations and was always there for every question we had. She was the best person for the job and made our wedding day easier to prepare and more special than we could have hoped for. Thank you, Janie. The hotel itself was a fairy tale. The ceremony was in the orchard, the drinks reception in the Lyon's Den and the dinner in the Orangery. Everything was lovely, the staff was polite and professional and Arun (the person filling in for Janie on that day) was on top of everything. It was truly the best day of our lives, and we can't wait to come back more often. Carmen & Octavian

Beautiful place in a tranquil setting with lovely outdoor areas to enjoy drinks/food and the fabulous gardens. The food in the restaurant was top quality and breakfast was simply amazing with a great choice of hot dishes, a nice treat to be served cooked to order, as many hotels offer self service breakfast these days. We did not get to use the Well but it looked lovely, bring your swimwear. Our room facilities could have been improved a little with better attention to cleaning under furniture etc. but the bed and linens were so nice. Lack of privacy in the room we had as it was overlooked by everyone passing to the Well outdoor experience. Bathroom was nice with a great shower and lovely toiletries and towels, but there was no magnifying mirror for shaving. However it was a very positive experience overall with such friendly helpful staff, nothing would be too much trouble for them.
