The Ritz Carlton Powerscourt Reviews

5 for garden and views etc

But overpriced and then no ticket deal for garden and waterfall

Powerscourt was lovely to walk around and see all the gardens. It was raining pretty badly but we still had fun. It was nice to get outside and see some manicured beauty but I do believe that most of Ireland's best beauty is unmanicured. It was also quite busy even for a rainy day.

Fantastic palace and gardens! It is worth coming calmly and strolling through the different corners of the garden, enjoying the scenery and nature!

Beautiful garden and location of the film The Count of Monte Cristo

Great gardens and palace, ready to visit all seasons

Spent a whole day wondering around the gardens, browsing around the shops and relaxing in the grounds. Hand held guides are available to help you get the most out of the gardens. Available in several languages. The shops have a beautiful range of Avoca products. The delicatessen area has a wide variety of foods. You can take your own picnic or have lunch in the cafe. Everything looked delicious. Lots of parking available. An enjoyable day out.

Very nice, too bad the day of the visit was very cloudy.

Famous for their scones and cakes, but the walks in the gardens are to be enjoyed, great place to take your visitors to. I fell in love with their furniture department. Now I want to make over my home !

Do not miss the Japanese garden. An audio guided tour is available, but I find that you get a much netter impression by just walking around and reading the small placards located here and there.
2 hours time can be recommended for the visit.
Shop, cafe and restrooms are located in the main building

Beautiful setting plenty of shopping escapism, little over sanitised now though

Today is absolutely gorgeous out in crispy dry cold with lovely sunshine through trees walking sheer bliss

Magnificent gardens, trees, starues. A work of art.

It would be 5 stars but there was a severe lack of Waluigi

Lovely venue , rooms very nice . Staff pleasant. Food very poor , amateur restaurants and poor quality produce

Lovely staff, lovely views and walks and lovely food!

Found the place to be a tourist trap, 10.50 euro for 2 adult admission to the garden, which is only barely starting to bloom, everything greatly overpriced, don't bother going, at least the Phoenix Park is free and scenic

Beautiful gardens. Stunning views is sugar loaf. Avoca cafe is always delicious just a bit on the pricey side.

Lovely day out if weather good... but probably bit expensive

Impressive, beautifully landscaped garden with many different facets

We can not do it badly, but if you do not have a lot of admission fees and you have other European garden shuttles, you will be able to get a good start.

Check out the waterfall after a rainy night don't bother on sunny days

Well built and nice place for a quick break from city. Nice food and nice gardens.

A really nice place to visit, lovely walks and food.

Stunning gardens in County Wicklow. Well worth the trip to visit

One of the most beautiful gardens in the world indeed!!!!

Love it highly recommended it's world class hotel and services at a great price.10 from 10

Beautiful! It is an experience truly unforgettable. Well worth a visit.

Such a beautiful estate. Really must come visit, especially if the weather is nice out. The gardens are so beautiful. There is a cafe that you can sit at and enjoy the view.

Very nice garden, lot's to see, nice garden center, also a distillery.

Beautiful garden, perfect for a walk and beautiful view of the mountain as well.

Absolutely amazing gardens!! A definite must-see for anyone visiting Ireland!

6.50 for a pint... very slow service from bar staff.

Really well maintained gardens, great spot for a walk & lunch with kids.

Beautiful gardens!!! Plan to be here for a few hours to enjoy it thoroughly.

Coffee and scones are lovley and the gardens are beautiful

A large, wonderfully landscaped, huge park with various shops, a mediocre restaurant, huge lake, Japanese garden, over 100 years old animal cemetery and many other attractions. If you are in the vicinity, you should definitely go!

The splendour of Autumn was spectacular. It was also empty, the dream!

Magnificent House, great Park. Also showing a Japanese garden.

Great food, good service, very polite and helpful staff. Just a nice place to visit

Enjoyable Saturday afternoon, gardens are beautiful, a bit brown due to the drought. Flowers were fine and the trees magnificent. Nice shops and cafe as well.

Beautiful garden and old, venerable house with a cafe and 'shopping center'.
At the moment there is no green grass to be seen because of the weather, all yellow steppe! It's a shame, but still worth a visit.

Super nice and well kept. There are trees all over the world and some are quite impressive

Beautiful gardens, totally worth the 10 euro entrance fee. A must see if you can get the. My flatmate and I even managed to cycle the from blackrock!

Beautiful, well-kept place, neat and clean, amazing view. Quiet and calm.

So very beautiful would like to spend a whole day there

Beautiful location with plenty of space and activity areas for kids.

Beautiful place,as anywhere in Wicklow , can be tough in the winter, the grounds are stunning , but better in the summer

Highly recommended. Suitable for family to have a fun.

Great variety of plants, flowers & shrubs
Got great plant holders

Beautiful house, beautiful garden! Definitely enough time to plan. The film screening in the house about the history of the entire plant you should look at - very interesting. The staff was already extremely friendly More

Unfortunately it was freezing cold out and raining that I didn't get to explore the gardens. I did get to see the cafe, mini shops inside, the beautiful Powerscourt Christmas/garden shop, little Nativity barn with animals (deers, donkeys, sheeps, chickens, ...) and outdoor tree/wreath area for purchasing.

The area is huge and well kept.

I especially liked the garden shop as it was very festive inside with Christmas decorations and trinkets for purchasing along with plants and decor that I unfortunately could not buy to take back to the US with me.

The cafe inside has plenty of seating though I am sure in the summer it fills up easily. There is a beautiful patio and view of the gardens from the cafe.

While the waterfall is spectacular, I couldn t believe the price to see it!
It was 5.50 each for a student. I mean.. it s literally a waterfall and should be free of charge. After all it s not like a natural waterfall and forest requires much maintenance!

Wish the roses we're in bloom. The gardens were lovely even though too early for roses. Lunch of sausage roll was delicious.

One of the top place for a nice walk or activities with the kids. For everyone really. Can't beat the spot and landscape either.

Powerscourt is a beautiful location with impressive gardens
