Tucked away in quiet, suburban Dublin, Clontarf Castle Hotel, with its magnificent entrance hall, hanging tapestries, mysterious doorways and roaring fires, is located two miles from Dublin city centre and five miles from Dublin Airport. Some of the world's most famous horse racing tracks are near the hotel, including Fairyhouse, Leopardstown and the Curragh. Golfers will be spoilt for choice with several 18-hole championship courses nearby. All-Ireland club rugby is played within walking distance, and if the season is right, guests can catch an international cricket match in Castle Avenue.
Guests can dine at the on-site bistro, which serves modern dishes and fine wines in a Midiaeval atmosphere complete with chandeliers and traditional pewter goblets. The casual, contemporary pub is the sort of place a dashing young knight might be found practicing the finer points of chivalry while downing a pint of stout; the bar is more refined, a place for the graduated knight. Conference rooms cater for meetings of up to 500 people and come equipped with the latest audio-visual equipment. The concierge can assist with booking tours and restaurants and can also advise on the area's best attractions. Other practical amenities include complimentary parking and a currency exchange service.

The 111 guestrooms are decorated in rich greens and oranges with dark wood furnishings and feature high-speed Internet access, televisions with pay movies, tea/coffee making facilities, telephones and complimentary toiletries.
