I stayed with my son on Thursday 20 November 2025. The purpose was to attend a book launch by John Feehan (The Silver River of Slieve Bloom), On arrival we met with Marissa who was informative, knowledgeable and very welcoming. The hotel was beautiful, full of charm and character, evening meal and breakfast were delicious. The book launch was a beautiful event, very special. Overall we had a lovely experience of Birr thanks to Marissa and the staff of Dooly's Hotel, and also to Offaly County Council and the Heritage Council who hosted the launch in Kilcormac. A visit to Birr Castle was also something to remember and chrrish. I'm hoping to go back soon. Brigid Birney

Go on our Killian! He was as sweet as sugar and very helpful — he never let our glasses go empty. He was enthusiastic, kind, and a hardworking young lad. His service was amazing!
