A bright and modern hotel in historic Leixlip, half an hour outside of Dublin, with an excellent carvery restaurant – includes breakfast, late check-out and food and drink discounts.
  • West of centre: Just 15 kilometres west of vibrant Dublin, Springfield Hotel is well located for jaunts into the capital as well as exploring historic Leixlip and Ireland’s fabulous east coast. The hotel’s got fantastic road connections if you’re driving, and there’s plenty to see and do locally from exploring castles to playing (or watching) golf or indulging it a spot of retail therapy.

  • The best of Irish grub: You’ll find all the Emerald Isle’s favourite dishes on offer at the hotel’s restaurant and bar, not to mention the best of Irish produce. Breakfasts are a cornucopia of pastries, breads, local meats and cheeses as well as all the elements of a ‘Full Irish’. Snacks and light bites like sandwiches are available throughout the day and carvery dinners are warming and delicious – try the soup with Guinness stout soda bread, roast sirloin of Irish beef. Book in advance for afternoon tea which includes a mouth-watering selection of cakes and scones.

  • Restful rooms: After days out getting to know this corner of Ireland, return to beautifully appointed rooms and suites, all with comfy twin or Queen beds dressed in crisp, white linens, places to sit and relax, or enjoy a pre-dinner drink, and en suite bathrooms with power showers. There’s superfast Wi-Fi too, so you can catch up on your favourite shows.

How to get there

Located just off Junction 5 of the N4, Springfield Hotel is a 90-minute drive from Dublin airport. The nearest train station is Leixlip (Louisa Bridge) which is a six-minute drive away.

Springfield Hotel, Leixlip Road, Cooldrinagh, Leixlip, Co. Kildare, W23 W280, Ireland

Culture buffs shouldn’t miss County Kildare’s many historical hotspots, from the famous 13th-century Grey, White and Black Abbeys to the beautiful St Brigid’s Cathedral in Kildare town, one of the earliest Christian sites in the country. Elsewhere, the Norman-era St David’s Church boasts ties to none other than St Patrick himself, while nearby Maynooth is a must for its awe-inspiring castle ruins, a historic university campus, and grand stately homes like Castletown House and Carton House.

For something a little more active, you’ll find all manner of outdoor activities in the vicinity, from hiking and cycling to golf, horseback riding and more. In fact, the area is known for its rich equestrian heritage, and horse lovers will find two noteworthy racecourses (Naas and Punchestown) and a sprinkling of stud farms close by.
