We had our wedding reception in the Abbey Hotel on the 7th of December 2019. The level of professionalism and service we received right from our initial show around was exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble! The food was fantastic and cooked to perfection, right down to the temperature of the …

fillet of beef. All guests we have spoken to have remarked on it. The day from start to finish was absolutely fabulous. The wedding coordinators were brilliant and very responsive with emails and calls. Sarah was wonderful on the day and had everything running like clockwork, no detail was overlooked. We could not have been more thrilled with how our day went and would highly recommend the Abbey Hotel for any future couple looking to book their wedding reception.

Absolutely fabulous venue. Beautiful setting unfortunately due to our Irish weather our outside time was limited but lots of photo opportunities in the hotel. Wedding planners extremely pleasant and helpful as were any of the staff we met! I had numerous dietary requirements from numerous guests and …

all were met and my expectations were exceeded. Everyone was taken care of. Highly recommend this wedding venue for location, staff and food. All areas were closely monitored by Julie and her team and anything I overlooked was mentioned to be and rectified quickly and discreetly. If I were to do it again Id be back in the morning!

To Geraldine & Tom Grealy and Family and all the staff

Thank you so much for giving us the most fantastic day on 6th April 2019. From the moment we had the pleasure of meeting you, you accommodated us in every way. Nothing was too much trouble and our every request was catered for. The …

attention to detail was second to none, from the drinks reception to table settings and beyond. We had a lot of props that required a lot of set up on the day and Geraldine and her staff listened carefully to what we wanted and set up and displayed everything exactly as we wished. We also have to commend in a special way the Chef, the kitchen personnel and the staff involved in our dinner service. We have received so many compliments from our guests about the food served on the day. The presentation and attention to detail with every dish was amazing. Furthermore the service received from every staff member was impeccable and truly faultless. We cannot recommend the Abbey highly enough. Its staff instils confidence. They are a pleasure to deal with and are so skilled at what they do. Geraldine even emailed us some candid photographs she had taken of us on the day – just like a friend or a family member would do! That personal touch provided by the Abbey is in our opinion why it is so special. We enjoyed every moment of our day and we cannot thank Geraldine and her team enough for making our dream day a reality. We are already looking forward to returning to the Abbey and to meeting everyone again. Sarah and Ciarán x

The Abbey hotel were extremely helpful and accommodating from the minute we booked our wedding. Although we dealt with 3 different wedding coordinators our day was always in safe hands. They were always easy to contact with any questions and replied promptly to all emails.

On the day we had …

nothing to worry about. The drinks reception ran smoothly and many of our friends commented on how much they loved the fruit punch. From the moment I arrived, I had nothing to worry about and everything ran to schedule. Guests were called to the meal at 5.00 and we were all seated for speeches at 5.30. After the speeches, we were quickly served our dinner. The food was of an extremely high quality and every dietary requirement was catered for. The rest of the night was a fantastic success and we definitely had the best day ever.

Thanks so much to everyone at The Abbey Hotel for making our wedding day so special.

Everything went just as expected. Food was amazing.
Thanks to Julie and the team for everything.

It's very hard to pick a venue that ticks all the boxes, but The Abbey made it easy for us. The homely feeling on arrival, the helpful staff and of course the beautiful food. They have years of experience and its a credit to them. Our guests travelled from near and far and all were equally impressed …

with their experience with the venue, staff, food and service. Thank you for giving us and our guests the perfect day!
We can not recommend The Abbey highly enough.
Best wishes for the future,

Paudie and I had our wedding at the Abbey Hotel on Saturday 12th of August and we couldn’t be happier with how everything went in the hotel. From the warm welcomes and fabulous food to the friendly staff and excellent service it was just perfect from start to finish. So many guests commented on …

the ‘homely’ feel of the hotel with its character and fabulous grounds & gardens. We would like to say a huge thank you to the Grealy family, wedding co-ordinator Lisa Mulally and all the staff at the Abbey Hotel for a truly amazing day. The ballroom looked beautiful and everywhere was immaculate. Adrian & Lisa were so professional and ensured everything ran smoothly on the day – the timing of the food, speeches, music, tea /coffee & cake etc. From the first day we choose the Abbey Hotel Roscommon as our wedding venue they were so accommodating and nothing was a problem. We can't thank you enough and would most definitely recommend The Abbey Hotel to any future couples.

Where to start, we cannot say enough good things about the Abbey. This is mostly down to Lisa the wedding coordinator. She was an absolute pleasure to talk to and discuss things with. She's a woman that knows her job inside out. Nothing is a problem to Lisa. The meal was simply fabulous, efficient, …

hot, fresh and there was no shortage of seconds. Even some guests complimented how nice the cup of tea was. The ballroom and the Abbey itself looked fabulous. The Greally family were on hand to welcome us and delighted to see the horse and carriage. The staff were brilliant especially the bar staff, again no delays getting served. If your thinking about the Abbey for any event, we would highly recommend it. Ita and Shane.

We can't recommend the Abbey Hotel enough for a wedding ... They really know what they're at! It is a beautiful cosy hotel that can still cater for a big number (such as our wedding). The food was excellent, the ball room looked amazing and they we're incredibly efficient. Lisa and the team were …

also very helpful in setting up different pieces for the day ... Sweet table, guestbook and the flowers for the tables. We had a fantastic day and I would have no hesitation in advising friends and family to choose the Abbey hotel for their big day.

We had our wedding at the Abbey Hotel, Roscommon on 06th October.

We chose the Abbey Hotel because it is a building with great charactor, because of its reputation for great food and because it has only one large function room guaranteeing one wedding per day.

The Abbey Hotel and in …

particular Lisa, the wedding coordinator, could not have been more helpful in the weeks leading up to our big day. They listened to us and took all we said on board while giving us ideas and guidance about how our day would go.

The food was incredible! All of our guests raved about the meal. The groom himself is ceoliac and the Abbey made sure that he missed out on nothing. Canepes and evening finger food was specifically prepared for him and our other guests with dietry requirements.

The function room looked beautiful for our day. Lisa placed all our personal touches perfectly around the room and even if our guests didn't notice, we certainly did.

We had our wedding in the Abbey on the 29th of April 2017. I can't praise the staff and owners enough. From the minute we contacted the hotel for a viewing they made us feel very welcome. Everyone in the hotel is extremely helpful and friendly. They were always available to answer any questions we …

had, they could recommend bands, photographers etc and would always work around out schedule if we needed to meet. The week before the wedding Geraldine and Lisa were on the phone for any queries I had. They even designed a separate menu for my aunt (she has special dietary requirements)- the day before the wedding. The day of the wedding was completely flawless and that is thanks to everyone in the Abbey. The food, service and drink was out of this world. We didn't have to worry about anything on the day of the wedding thanks to everyone in the hotel. Even the morning after the wedding, Tom (the owner) went and carried down my uncles breakfast, (my unlce is in his 70's), got him the paper and sat beside him discussing the weather. The best decision we ever made was to have our wedding in the Abbey. I am proud to say I am an Abbey Bride. I wholeheartedly recommend the Abbey Hotel for ANY award it has been nominated for.
