Country escapes don’t get much more impressive than this. Outstanding among luxury five star hotels in Ireland and set amidst one of the most scenic and historic estates in the country is Powerscourt Hotel, a 194-room resort showcasing Palladian-style architecture and offering guests a host of amenities. Recently named AA Hotel of the Year, two championship golf courses, a 30,000-square foot luxury spa by ESPA, a signature restaurant and traditional Irish pub are among this luxury hotel’s distinctive attractions.

If rejuvenation is what you need, luxury spa by ESPA awaits. Unwind amid the sparkles of the Swarovski-lit pool or find some balance and calm in the amethyst crystal steam room. The grounds themselves offer their own slice of serenity, with perfectly maintained gardens and Ireland’s highest waterfalls to discover. Take a stroll along the Dargle River via the estate’s five-kilometre set trail, or hop on a bicycle to find a secluded spot for a picnic.

When it comes to dining, you’re not short of refined settings here. On the third floor, Sika Restaurant exudes elegance and shows off stunning vistas over Sugar Loaf Mountain from floor-to-ceiling windows, and afternoon tea is served daily in the Sugar Loaf Lounge. No trip to Ireland would be complete without an authentic Irish pub visit, and McGills is on hand for a perfectly poured pint after a day on the fairways.

The Great Sugar Loaf Mountain is visible across the valley, between the tall elegant beech trees. The avenue slopes down, through woodland, before revealing the Palladian elegance of Powerscourt Hotel Resort & Spa, with its breathtaking views.
Located on the famous Powerscourt Estate, one of Ireland’s finest estates, with its historic house, beautifully manicured garden and its waterfall, the highest in Ireland, you may be just half an hour from Dublin but it could be a million miles away.
