Travel Information

There are two secrets to making the most of your vacation to Ireland: a conveniently located hotel, and hiring a car. The country;s numerous cultural and historical attractions are scattered across its sprawling landscape, making car travel a necessity, and a comfortable hotel a welcome haven after a long, enjoyable car drive. The Castletroy Park Hotel and Conference Centre is conveniently located on Dublin Road (N7), just 5 minutes from Limerick city and a 30 minute car drive from Shannon International Airport—which houses several car hire agencies where you can rent a car the moment you arrive. The hotel has a fantastic view of Clare Hills and the River Shannon, and is near the gate of Plassey Park, the 500-acre home of Ireland's youngest University. The hotel has very comfortable rooms (both smoking and non smoking), a well-equipped business center, and excellent dining facilities. The 'Mc Laughlins'. restaurant serves both International and local dishes made from the freshest ingredients, and has a fine selection of wines. For those whose car travels to the surrounding historical sites have awakened a nostalgia for old-style Irish dining, the Merry Pedlar Pub is a traditional Irish pub where you can savor brasserie style cuisine, good company, and lively song. For breakfast, head for the 'Conservatory' where you can enjoy a hot cup of coffee before heading for the next leg of your car travels through Ireland.

The hotel also has a 20m deck level swimming pool, sauna, Turkish steam room and jacuzzi, and gym.

The Castletroy Park Hotel and Conference Centre is also a short car drive away from major tourist locations like King John's Castle, Bunratty Castle and Folk Park, the Burren in County Clare, the Cliffs of Moher and the O'Brien's Tower. This makes it an ideal stop for those whose car drives take them through the Limerick area.
