Sunday Independent ‘A Taste for Life’

We are chuffed to bits that Ballyvolane House won ‘Best Boutique Hotel’ at the Irish Hospitality Awards at The Shelbourne Hotel in Dublin on Monday, 15th October 2018. It is a brilliant accolade to receive and we are very appreciative that all our efforts have been rewarded in this way. We would like to thank our guests and especially our dedicated and hard-working team, who have been beavering away out front and behind the scenes - always smiling. We would also like to thank the judges and Emily Hourican, Editor of Hospitality Ireland Magazine for hosting the awards ceremony. The Shelbourne Hotel was a cracking setting and provided an excellent lunch. Thank you - we are celebrating!
