Mayo hotel No. 1 in Condé Nast Readers’ Choice Awards

THE Lodge at Ashford Castle has been ranked the top hotel in Ireland by Condé Nast US readers in the Hotels of the World category.

Condé Nast’s annual awards celebrate its readers’ favourite hotels, cruises, countries, cities, spas and more. People vote in their thousands to share their top destinations around the world.

Part of The Red Carnation Hotel Collection, The Lodge at Ashford Castle is situated on a spectacular 350-acre Ashford Castle Estate in Cong, Co. Mayo.

Peter Fergus, general manager at The Lodge at Ashford Castle, said of the award: “It is an honour to be named the top hotel in Ireland for any award, but what makes this one all the more cherished is that it was chosen by those who we deem most important - our guests.

“This award wouldn’t be possible without the wonderful staff who show up every day for our guests, their passion and commitment are visible for all to see, and this award is a testament to that.”
