Weddings of Distinction at the Luxurious 4* Abbey Hotel Roscommon
I have worked in the Abbey Hotel in Roscommon town a lot over the last ten years. It’s friendly staff, beautiful venue location and stunning ball room make it an ideal venue for your wedding. I also like that is right next to Roscommon Castle which is an amazing place to go for wedding photos all year around. I recently did a interview with Geraldine Grealy, Director of Marketing & PR at the Abbey Hotel.
What is different about the 4* Abbey Hotel Roscommon?
The 4* Abbey Hotel is centrally located in Ireland’s Hidden Heartlands just on the outskirts of Roscommon Town. This is a well established family run business owned and managed by the Grealy Family Dynasty since 1963. Now in it’s 5th generation of the family running this well established wedding venue, it has garnered popularity and appeal for hosting weddings of distinction from couples from all over Ireland, the UK and indeed the USA. It’s location, so close to Ireland West Airport Knock (55 minutes) and only 90 minutes from Dublin makes it a suitable destination venue with all the trappings of an old country castle. Generations of families have celebrated their weddings and indeed many subsequent celebrations at the Abbey down through the years. “At the Abbey we are dedicated to hosting unique wedding celebrations that fulfil the individual needs and personality of each couple.
