TESTIMONIALS
“Last year my husband and I celebrated our wedding day at The Ardilaun Hotel. We planned our wedding while living in
Canada. The staff at The Ardilaun were very organised and helpful, which made the planning of our big day straight-forward
and stress-free …Moposa was very beneficial too.
The Ardilaun is an excellent venue for wedding celebrations and I have no hesitation recommending this hotel to anyone.
The food exceeded expectations and the service was next to none. I recommend the homemade scones and the rib of beef!
Enjoy planning your special Day!”
Fidelma & Steve, Canada
“Thank you for helping to make our wedding day one of the most wonderful days of our lives. From the moment we met you
and walked into The Ardilaun Hotel, we knew it was the place that we wanted to have our wedding reception.The staff have
always been so helpful and friendly and happy….. Many of our guests have said to us how beautiful the hotel was,
how friendly and professional the staff were, and how beautiful the food was…..
we wish all of the staff the very best in the future and thank you all so much.”
Aoife & Eamon, Clare
“I just want to say a big thank you and all of the staff in The Ardilaun Hotel for the fantastic job you did for Aodán’s and
Neasa’s wedding….Overall the high attention to detail, the outstanding food, fantastic beautifully landscaped gardens, and the
high level of customer service you provided for my son’s wedding made a most memorable experience. Well done and thanks.”
