The Ritz Carlton Powerscourt Reviews

Great park and lots to see. Was here a little early in the year to blossom. Gives a better impression in the sun than in cool gray weather.

Great gardens. Beautiful views of the Wicklow Mountains.

Normally amazing place to visit. Cafe very disappointing yesterday. Not yet organised and got stale cake. Prices outrageous. Also my loo .

Beautiful garden, lovely and well kept, I go there at least once a year, to relax

Amazing experience, lovely to have a walk with a family! Got to be there at sunny weather and loved it! :) 100% recommended!

The Japanese garden is beautifully arranged. I also saw the rainbow that formed over the central lake.

detailed and attractive craftmanship in statues and stone work. A credit to those gone by.

Nice place, just be wary of the garden centre. Nice stuff but overpriced.

Rounded off a beautiful stay in the amazing hotel adjacent.

Even though we visited in October it was still beautiful. The various themed areas of the gardens were all well cared for and interesting. We especially liked the woods with it's large and varied collection of trees and the pet cemetery.

Very good place to visit and breakfast, there are shops, breakfast place, gardens and horses

Great place to spend an afternoon strolling around the extensive gradens. The restaurant is a bit expensive. The garden centre had a large selection of plants for sale.

Great gardens, on a nice day you could spend an afternoon exploring the various areas of the gardens.
Good cafe and shops, very busy when we visited but still great service.

The most beautiful gardens I have ever visited. Well worth the entrance fee alone!

Magical day out in the sunshine. Take the kids and a picnic....leave the tv at home

A fantastic place for a visit with the family or for a romantic walk with a loved one, I highly recommend it, especially on clear days

Nice park with a lot of sight, but don't miss the distillery, the nearest neighbor

A plenty of beauty of flora, Italian garden, probably looking like in Renessanse ages, with an adorable Triton Lake. Splendid Japanese garden and plenty of tall and healthy trees from different places of the world. Also a English style garden and with unforgettable view to the panoramic apearense of Wicklow mountains.

Lovely for long walks with beautiful views and gardens. So well kept.. the paths are abit hard with buggies as there not paved there gritty stone which is something that could be improved in the future and not alot of toilets, none infact while your walking around the gardens whoch again isnt great with children but we had a great day.

Wilting flowers, fountains with algae on it and grass with weeds. Poorly maintained.

This is a place to potter about and enjoy the peace and calm. ..the avenue, regal in its autumnal colour, beautiful views across the valley. .. relax over wonderful fresh food and coffee. ..

Clean, sanitation station well situated. Covid19 signs. Staff friendly.rooms clean. Food good. Limited time to 1hr and 1/2hrs only.

Wonderful place. Beautiful gardens & the house is spectacular. If you can, take in a visit to the waterfall as well. This place is in a beautiful part of Ireland & I suggest you set aside a full day to enjoy it all.

Yes, very nice, but you do not necessarily have seen.

Although if access to the garden is paid, for the beauty lovers that man can do with nature and for those who like photography, the place can be a background show!

The garden is large and pretty. Not sure about the claimed world number 3 ranking.

Very nice and well-kept garden. Well worth a visit in any case

Spectacular gardens, considered the most beautiful in the world.

A beautiful plant. Was the final highlight of our trip.

Unbelievably scenic location. Good public amenities. Playground for little kids.

Amazing place! Going to go there many times again and interested to see how its changes in a different seasons

I have visited Powerscourt a number of times over the past twenty years. But it was only recently I paid into the Gardens area. I thought the extent of the grounds was what I could see from the cafe terrace, how wrong I was. Do not visit here and leave without buying a ticket for the Gardens access. They are beyond what any words could describe. Jill and her team are very helpful and friendly. Probably the best place to visit in the greater Dublin/Wicklow area.

The gardens were beautiful and the grounds and everything else was very well kept.

Love the house and gardens staff are friendly however they don't cater for celiac/diabetics which is a shame and unfortunately the dish we had wasn't great either. Come on Avoca you can do better than that!

Beautiful. 1 house walk is enough, but Yu can split it into a 30 minute walk if that's all the time you have, the stairs do connect. A lot of retail and tough to find information about the acual house, but worth a visit if you enjoy gardens.

A beautiful promenade near Dublin.
I recommend drinking coffee or eating at a cafe inside (!)

Amazing walks, that can last hours, or a few minutes. Great audio tour as well.

Very impressive work in progress with fabulous gardens..will easily get 5 stars when completed.

Beautiful. We were there on a beautiful spring day, but nevertheless the gardens and the house are fantastic, highly recommended.

Great place! One of the finest gardens I have ever seen and a good restaurant! A must see!

Gorgeous. Loved meeting one of the five permanent gardeners and the whole estate is surreal.

Fabulous, but gardens have limited access for wheelchair users. Toilets disgusting. Disabled toilet very small.

Very nice place, takes from morning to early evening back and forth from dublin but totally enjoyable and worth visiting.

Great place to visit impeccable place great spot to spend a couple of hours

Private enclosure with a golf course, shops, cafeteria, greenhouses and palace where its main attraction is its garden with back steps leading up to a fountain. The garden is paid ( 7.50 per person).
Honestly, very expensive to just get a photo of those views. Very focused on tourism and making cash. The interior of the palace is accessible, since it is there where it has the shops, cafeteria, etc.

They are magnificent, it is worth going to meet them, advisable to go with children, they will have a great time!

Great place for a day out lovely walks and nice food

Beautiful, worth the money. But stay away from Avoca. 40 euros, lunch for two!

Amazing garden, kept very well!
I loved it!
Stunning view from the tower.

Great scrolling spot with beautiful gardens. There is also a helpful audio guide available.

If you visit it at a time when it has not rained, you cannot admire its beauty and you will find a disappointment

Wonderful place walking around big trees breathing pure fresh air and smell the nature

Outstanding natural beauty !!! Well kept gardens, always a delight. The staff are very welcoming and polite ....

Those who come near should definitely visit Powerscourt. A beautiful garden with different topics. Very generous. You have to take more time to let it all work for you!

Very good place to experience diversity of plants and garden. Have an amazing collection of plants to shop around

Overpriced nonsense referencing the food, it's quality- poor, the staff are kind the general cost of anything is robbery with out violence! , feel sorry for the tourists they are and will be ripped off here. The gardens I am sure are lovely but the admission prices is prohibitive.
Nice place to walk around but I could not recommend here as an affordable place for a family coffee is not great either.

My daughter treated me to tea for my 70th birthday. It snowed . The tea and cakes were absolutely delicious

Nice castle. Beautiful Japanese garden. Many beautiful, large and special trees in the surrounding gardens.

As the Sun was bright and beautiful day a head the Powerscourt waterfall saw entire Dublin being there and no parking was available hence many of us had to take a uturn and change the plans. Garden is beautiful.
