One of the best venues for a wedding that I ever attended. The interior of the Castle Arch is classy, refined, and cosy. It certainly isn’t over-the-top and tacky, rather it is a perfect balance of functional and refined. The staff is very friendly and efficient. They attended to our every need with the courtesy and graciousness you should expect. The conservatory, where breakfast and the initial reception was held, was very warm and comfortable. Separated from the bar for privacy, but close enough to where you had access. Upstairs, the ballroom facility was fantastic. It definitely was not like similar hotels which featured«conference rooms» and passed them off as reception areas. No, this was different — a proper ballroom with a bar, wooden floors, and beautiful lighting. A private balcony for smokers and a private WC was also available. The food was tasty and filling. It was not your typical catered food, but rather was of quality and flavour. I was filled and satisfied. The rooms themselves were very nice. Comfortable bedding, nice facilities, and reasonably priced. The full Irish breakfast that came with the room was gorgeous, especially the black pudding. I can’t reiterate enough how attentive the managers and serving staff were. Always polite, discreet, and eager to please. Price-wise this could not be beat. Seriously. They definitely want your business and have a proper attitude as to who the customer is. While many contemporary hotels seem to act as if they are doing you a favour and are eager to squeeze every last Euro out of you — the Castle Arch has a much more fair and respectable approach. Their prices were significantly less expensive then their contemporaries and the quality of the facilities and service were certainly higher. The savings on price will not require a sacrifice in outcome or result. I’m seriously impressed. With elegance and class they treat you, the customer, like a king. I couldn’t recommend them enough for negotiating a wedding, 21st, anniversary party, or Christmas party.

Stayed here one night. The room was nice, and surprisingly spacious. My only mark against is that the guest wifi network was only available downstairs in the lobby area. Otherwise, the service was friendly, and the full breakfast was very good. It’s a short and very pleasant walk to either Trim Cathedral or Trim Castle, the major attractions in the area.
