Ireland's best wedding hotels revealed at 2024 Irish Hotel Awards

The country's best wedding hotels, coastal escapes, golf experiences, and dog-friendly getaways have been named at the 2024 Irish Hotel Awards.

The awards were announced at a bustling ceremony at the four-star Johnstown Estate in Co. Meath, where hospitality teams from across the industry gathered to celebrate and watch as a number of awards were doled out.
