Lacking in facilities
Pros:

luxury period house nice and comfortable. It is quite small and cosy
But very very quite so guests tended to talk very low and the atmosphere was a bit stiff , nice to go if your looking for a bit of peace and quiet. The breakfast: I had pancakes off the hot food menu, they were inedible , soggy and burnt . continental buffet small but what was on offer was fresh. breads were not nice, cheap sliced pan toast, and plain soda bread , no other healthy options . No tea or coffee making facilities in the rooms which was very disappointing, reception appeared friendly but very fake and put on . However the rest of the staff could not do enough for you.

Idyllic

We had a really lovely stay. The staff are wonderfully friendly and efficient while being nice and relaxed as well. Between the lovely walks, excellent food and relaxed and welcoming atmosphere I would have to give Marlfield 10/10. We will be back.

Pros:

We loved everything, especially the old world feel, the wonderful receptionist and the food.
Because we both like to swim, it would have been nice if there was a leisure pool but it was not a major issue.
We would love to stay there again soon.

Warm, welcoming and thoroughly relaxing
Pros:

Amazing short stay. Fabulous boutique location which is warm and welcoming from your first step through the front door until you leave. Staff we're great always there when there but never 'in your face' and the restaurants have a great selection of food both festive and non-festive.
If you want a relaxing, sit back beside a warm fire with a nice drink reading the paper and soaking the festive time of year, then this is the place.

I couldn't recommend it enough.

A very charming and elegant country house
Pros:

We had a wonderful time with terrific food at "Duck" - fabulous informal restaurant in the former stables. Room was very nicely appointed and comfortable. Beautifully maintained and decorated hotel with many personal touches by the proprietors and thoroughly enjoyable - Gorgeous gardens....

A special hotel experience
Pros:

Beautiful characterful hotel. Room and bed were smal but beautiful furnished and spotlessly clean. Staff are very professional courteous but friendly and good fun at the same time. A final word on the breakfast - nothing different about the content of the irish breakfast but the quality of the ingredients and the manner in which it was prepared made it absolutely delicious- even the toast was special. Can't recommend enough for a quiet gentle and relaxed stay.

A credit to Gorey/Ireland
Pros:

Albeit I stayed the one night and continued on for a business meeting. I found the hotel and staff to be so very kind and sincere (did not appear put on). Everything is done tastefully with a sense of luxury. A credit to the area, and for me the icing on the cake would be an in room tea/coffee selection, some of us are up in the wee hours when the kitchen is not open.

Beautiful hotel with a tranquil setting
Pros:

Lovely tranquil setting, we went there for a chilled out weekend with some sight seeing and this was the perfect hotel. The gardens and nearby beach were gorgeous and the meal we had in the hotel was amazing.
