CITYWEST HOTEL, CONFERENCE, LEISURE & GOLF RESORT
Citywest is fortunate to offer two fantastic golf courses, both designed by the esteemed Christy O'Connor Jnr. Set within 300 acres of stunning countryside, and within striking distance of Dublin city centre, Citywest is a superb all-round venue for a golf break.
Championship Course
O'Connor's Championship Course is an excellent test, built according to the classic design principles of parkland golf. Visiting players will be tested by the length of the course, and the imposing water features and bunkers, but all will enjoy the manicured fairways and greens of this beautiful creation.
The highlight is the outstanding closing hole, named ‘O'Connor's Pass', where the task is to thread your drive through an avenue of mature trees, before negotiating the massive water hazards to the left of the fairway and in front of the green. This is a truly magnificent finishing hole.
Lakes Course
The Lakes Course, featuring its various water hazards and some impressive bunkering, offers visitors an enjoyable test, and perhaps some welcome respite from the challenges of the neighbouring Championship Course. Though not long, the Lakes is fraught with danger, and can punish severely those who are too greedy.
QUICK ENQUIRY
Citywest played host to the Gala Dinner for the 2006 Ryder Cup, and the massive hotel and estate boast outstanding facilities for golf, leisure and business travellers.
The hotel is enormous, boasting 1,314 en-suite bedrooms including classic, executive and Presidential suites. All of the rooms offer visitors an extremely comfortable base from which to explore the hotel, its facilities, or Dublin itself.
As you would expect from a resort of this magnitude, there are many different options for eating, drinking, and also leisure for the active among you. It is also possible to try outdoor pursuits such as horse riding, trout fishing and hillwalking.
The magnificent golf courses, leisure facilities and hotel rooms, in conjunction with the proximity to Dublin make Citywest a perfect destination for a golf break in Ireland.
The state-of-the-art Health and Leisure Club is one of Ireland's most extensive leisure complexes; there are separate spa centres for men and women, each featuring jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and heated caldarium. There are also beauty treatments and a crèche available.
Dublin is one Europe's liveliest capital cities, with many people flocking to experience the sights, the culture, or just the craic. As the locals maintain, the Guinness does taste better in Dublin, and the atmosphere in the city centre at night time is unrivalled. With the international airport just 20 minutes from town, it is extremely easy to access both the city, and the array of magnificent golf courses that are littered around the surrounding coastline Co. Wicklow to the south.
There are over 1,000 pubs in Dublin, and a visit to at least a few of them to sample the local brew is essential to any Dublin Tour.
The fine dining at the Terrace Restaurant is complemented by fantastic mountain views.
