Description:
Carton House has opened its doors as a luxury hotel. Minimalist interiors, spacious modern rooms, contemporary art and sparkling chandeliers contrast magnificently with the untouched classic exterior and original antique pieces. Following this fantastic makeover, Carton House is now welcoming guests to experience this enchanting world, steeped in history, but with all the comforts of a luxury hotel. Just half an hour outside Dublin, the beautifully elegant Palladian house is set in over a thousand acres of stunning parkland, and has attracted a long list of glamorous guests from Queen Victoria to Grace Kelly. The bright colours and contemporary artwork of the reception welcomes guests into the lavish and indulgent world of Carton House. With the expert eye of acclaimed architects and designers Carton House is an aesthetic masterpiece. Striking modern art adorns the walls and large glass windows flood the reception with natural light, while high ceilings across the main house create a sense of space and grandeur. The curved corridors are decorated with black and white photographs of the original house, leading guests on an alluring journey through the history of the estate.
