Unreal venue!

As a wedding photographer I am extremely lucky to get to some of the best wedding venues in the country and the Slieve Donard is most definitely one of my favourite spots to get to. As a wedding supplier I am always looked after at the Slieve Donard extremely well, making sure I am fed and watered throughout each wedding I photograph there. Every member of staff is very friendly and nothing is a problem for them when asked. I didn't think that the hotel could get any better than it already was when it closed for refurbishment and wow, it is absolutely stunning!! Every room is unreal! And what about the view out the front looking at the Mournes, amazing! Keep up the brilliant work and I would honestly be happy to shoot weddings in the Slieve Donard every week!

Stress Free Wedding!!!

Great event staff and they made our wedding stress free and the most memorable day. Big shout out to John and Niamh. John was the best from the time we booked our wedding to the day it’s self. Wouldn’t have been the same without him.

Absolute Perfection!

Everything about the venue, staff and wedding were absolutely perfect! There is nowhere else on earth we would rather have spent our big day. Every detail from start to finish was world class. We had so many guests telling us they’d never been to a nicer wedding or a nicer venue. We will be lifelong visitors at the Slieve Donard and would recommend it to anyone and everyone. Absolute perfection. John and Lauren were absolutely amazing. We can’t praise either of them highly enough.

Unbelievable Experience!!

Unbelievable experience with Niamh and John Comerton. We were very grateful to how they both dealt with the recent death we had in the family and were extremely sensitive. Niamh was unbelievable really helped to manage the stress.

Exceptional Staff

We couldn't have been more delighted with our experience of having our wedding at the Slieve Donard. The staff were exceptional, so warm and friendly and went above and beyond to accommodate us and our guests. The food was beautiful and we felt it was all good value for money. Thanks so much! Lauren was just brilliant, We felt we could rely on her completely which took a huge amount of stress out of the day. Niamh who we met the evening before who was also fantastic!

The Perfect Wedding!!

We got married at the Slieve Donard on 17th of September 2023 and honestly, we had the best experience. From viewing the hotel to the morning after our wedding, your team could not have been better or more supportive. John was amazing during the booking, planning, and organising. Niamh was incredible in the days before and day of the wedding. From the time we arrived on the Saturday until leaving on the Monday afternoon we felt like the two most important people in the world.
