I had the best time here! DCU took a bunch of international students to Causey Farm to experience…read moreIrish Farm life. We learned how to play a traditional Irish drum, learned traditional Irish dancing, made soda bread from scratch, ate said soda bread with soup and other items at the end of the day. We also went down to the bog and cut turf and learned about the importance it plays on the ecosystem, milked a cow, watched the farmer herd his sheep and played a game of Hurley. At the end of the day, after the meal we listened and joined in to traditional Irish music. Being an international student it was a fantastic experience and everyone from the group loved the trip!

I can't say too much or I will give it away, just remember to wear comfy shoes, warm clothes and prepare to be scared. Lots of frights and "Oh No" moments, so if you love horror or Halloween I highly recommend it! Great way to spend an evening and well worth the bit of a trip outside the pale.

Lord Henry Mountcharles has been organising concerts at his home, Slane Castle, for decades. Over the years I've seen numerous bands here including Guns N Roses (1992), The Verve (1998), The Rolling Stones (2007) and more recently Guns N Roses again in May 2017. There is quite a walk from bus/car parks to and from the site, approximately 45 minutes each way, which is fine at the start of a concert, but tough after a gig, when you've been standing for hours. Plus, as an open air venue, this site is at the mercy of the unpredictable Irish weather. Nevertheless, nowhere else equals Slane for a fantastic live music experience and it makes for a spectacular day out. Even though over 80,000 people can attend such events, Slane is well run with numerous bars, food vans, nearby camp sites, toilets and security. A must for live music fans, but expect to be exhausted at the end of a day here. Plus you're going to have very late night by the time you make it back to your vehicle and escape through the traffic!

A contemporary structure within an ancient building, The Atrium stands in palpable contrast to the…read moretime-honoured Dining Hall. The Dining Hall is saturated with various antique fixtures and fittings that harp back to Trinity's illustrious history whilst The Atrium embodies a more prevailing, up-and-coming side to the university often hosting a wealth of contemporary affairs such as fashion show receptions and photography exhibitions again in contrast to the more customary activities you would expect to go on within the conventional setting of the Dining Hall. A perfect spot for receptions and buffets alike, the Atrium loans itself to artistic and innovative activity, entertainment, staging and presentations. The interior is very up-to-the-minute with beech wood beams outlining the balconies, yet in conjunction with how it can never move too far away from it's historic roots owing to it being within the same ancient building as the Dining Hall The Atrium's interior design itself is deep-rooted and clearly influenced by Tudor beams, in fact upon first seeing inside it reminded me of a present-day Globe Theatre. A fun venue for work and play, this uniquely designed venue boasts a progressive charm whilst never losing touch with the enchanting Trinity times gone by that so many of the other grandiose buildings on site commemorate.

Things we didn't like: there is a pub down stairs that stays open very late in the evening. You can hear the club music all through the room. One night we were kept awake until 2:00AM because of the noise. It just so happened that on this same night, the boiler went out so we had no heat and no hot water to take a shower. I would possibly consider staying here again in the future if I could get a room away from the pub.

It had an in - room kettle tea/coffee biscuits, a tv that was a bit of a challenge to get to work and it was so quiet. So the tv is tuned to open at a menu featuring N'flix and it took a minute to realise I had to click along several boxes to reach the tv icon so it's no longer simple just to put on the tv. Our deal included dinner. We had a one course main so opted to pay €7.5 up charge for 10oz sirloins. The food was delicious and the portions generous. Each main included chips, but we held one back as we knew we simply wouldn't eat that much food and we really dislike food waste. While they had English mustard they didn't have the finest - Colman's. Breakfast was pretty good particularly if you are sausage bacon and egg inclined. Most of my breakfast was made from scratch and tasty. There's no fresh fruit, no cold meats, no fish (I realise this is my first visit and the owners will know what works at breakfast and I've been in higher star hotels that don't offer fish) and the mini croissants and mini chocolate croissants do really need re thought and upgraded. I'm aware too that myopic politicians in the country are deliberately punishing small hotels, outside the capital, by taxing hospitality to give the multi national hotel operators a punch in the nose for mercenary price gouging much of which is disgraceful. All the staff were genuinely friendly and the hotel environment was delightful. Hope to return.

It's…read morebeautiful from the outside, really pretty interior, and the woman at check in was exceptionally helpful and gave me early check in. But that was where my enjoyment ended. Couldn't get away from the place quick enough. Walked into the carvery at 12.26pm and 6-8 staff stood at the other end of the room. Carvery doesn't open till 12.30pm and I'm not sure how it works - do I seat myself? Do I get seated? No idea. And if I hadn't shouted down the restaurant at the staff, I'd still be standing there none the wiser. I'd been reassured by the woman at the front desk that their carvery was 'the best,' the meat was delicious and juicy, but beyond that it was rough going. Breakfast wasn't much better - and again, no one was particularly helpful about how the system worked. Lots of staff, just not very helpful. Room was absolutely freezing (in May!). There was a bright light from a corridor across the alleyway beaming into the room all night, and the walls were paper thin so it was loud all night, the room phone kept making an audible dial tone so I had to disconnect it. For the price, I wasn't thrilled at all.
