Location

About 15 minutes west of the city center

The Castleknock Hotel and Country Club is a 15-minute drive from the center of Dublin and is not easily reachable using public transportation. There is a bus that stops at a nearby shopping center but this is still a six-minute drive from the hotel. It is a great place to escape from the city but not the best location for guests that want to access Dublin without driving.Dublin has changed dramatically in the last 15 years. First there was the boom of the Celtic Tiger that brought great development and growth to the city. As a result of this wave of wealth, the city now has a cosmopolitan feel that it never had before. Since the economic bust, restaurants and hotels have generally retained the same quality, but the city is less expensive. Dublin has beautiful gardens, museums, and theaters, but it is the everyday things in the Irish capital -- like sitting in a local pub and having a pint -- that are a high point for many visitors.- 21-minute drive to Dublin Airport
