- Carton House Hotel

conference & events
Close and convenient
Carton House is located just 14 miles from Dublin city centre and 30
minutes from Dublin International Airport.
You’ll find everything within easy reach in Dublin and discover a
capital city that effortlessly blends culture and commerce; history
and hospitality; world class restaurants and a warm welcome everywhere.
It’s how we do things – in Ireland and at Carton House.
Travelling by car?
From Dublin, take the N4 motorway westbound turning off on the
Lexlip/Celbridge exit. Then simply follow the signs to Carton House. You’re just 5 minutes away.
Travelling by train?
Look for Maynooth station on the Western Suburban railway line. It’s a
short 40 minute train journey from Dublin and then just a 5 minute taxi
ride from Maynooth station to Carton House.
Travelling by air?
Dublin International Airport serves all major European and
international destinations. For onward travel by car, follow signs to
the M1, M50, then the N4. Or we can recommend taxi and chauffeur
services. For executive travellers arriving at Weston Airport, the N4 is
close by and very convenient. Arrangements can also be made to land
at Carton House by helicopter.
However you decide to travel, if you need further assistance or advice,
please contact us. We’ll be happy to help.

Spectacular view
Carton House is a stunning piece of Irish history set on an 1,100 acre estate
in Maynooth, Co. Kildare, with rolling woodlands intersected by the River Rye.
The old and new blend seamlessly together with the modern conference and
events facilities subtly connected to the Old House by glass corridors, affording
views of the magnificent grounds. Grandeur aside, everything is in easy walking
distance. From a spa treatment to a round of golf or Ireland Xtreme, it’s all on
your doorstep.

Make it special
Carton House is the ideal choice for companies and event planners searching for
that special destination to host an important event. Unique, charming location,
professional facilities and unrivalled service. A different class of venue.
Carton House is a perfect blend of historical grandeur and modern sophistication.
Fourteen fully equipped and beautifully decorated meeting rooms – many with
air-conditioning and state-of-the-art audio visual facilities. Plus that little bit of
inspiration you’re looking for.
Our dedicated conference and events team will tailor each experience to
your needs and desires. Whether you’re planning an elite executive meeting,
a glamorous product launch or a bespoke reward programme, you’re not on
your own.
From the very first call we work with you to make sure your event runs smoothly
and successfully. From the smallest meeting to exclusive use of the entire venue,
down to the last detail.
There’s nothing quite like Carton House for a special occasion.
The Carton Suite
The Carton Suite is designed around modern business. With all the latest audio,
video and internet technology you’d expect. Enjoy modern styling and natural
daylight inside and invigorating breakouts on manicured lawns outside.
Take it as one suite. Or split it into three. With its own entrance and pre-function
foyer, it adapts to your individual needs. Business conferences, product launches,
exhibitions and even car launches – it’s hosted them all. By night, it can be a
sophisticated space for a drinks reception or a shimmering silver ballroom for 350
gala dinner guests. Or the setting for dinner, after drinks in the main house.

Planning for success
There’s plenty to think about. What do you need? Quiet, with a bit of grandeur? Modern, yet sophisticated? Surroundsound PA system? Remote-controlled lighting? Lecterns? The checklist is a starting point. But the difference is in the detail.
And our highly skilled conference and events team know all about detail.
Will you need some team-building exercises? Ireland Xtreme at Carton House have the only tailor-made team-building
resort in Ireland offering a unique combination of forest adventure, ropes course, 4x4 driving, blind driving and a survivor
zone. All within 5 minutes’ walking distance of the hotel entrance.
Have you considered how your guests will spend their leisure time? In the Molton Brown Luxury Spa or our courtyard
swimming pool? Out on our two championship golf courses or getting into practice at the GUI National Academy? Perhaps
cycling around the beautiful 1,100 acres or fishing for pike, trout or salmon?
We are here on hand to go through every aspect of your event. To plan for success.
