A good work trip, staying in Kells again. Lovely hotel with a great buzz. Can't believe how busy it is ! Had an unfortunate experience without any heating in my room, but the staff brought up a portable radiator for me. One of those things tbh. Breakfast next door is great - make sure you book that for sure. Oh, and the Ceaser Salad with King Prawns is magnificent.

fantastic family run hotel with a very personal welcome and approach to their guests. Great buzz in the hotel bar with locals and visitors adding to the atmosphere. Delicious Guiness on tap. The hotel is well known for its food and once again it didn't disappoint. I always enjoy staying here when i am in the area on business

The Headfort is an old established hotel in the centre of historic Kells. It’s very comfortable with really pleasant helpful staff. The food is excellent. I shall return and use it as a base for trips to Meath. Very much recommend it.

Headfort Arms is wonderful. We keep making the mistake of staying in Swords each trip into Dublin because of its proximity to Dublin Airport. Navan is an easy drive just a bit further for an incredible improvement in quality that’s far less expensive.

Lovely hotel in Kells. The rooms, furnishings, and features seem newer and well-maintained. Our room was not ready when we arrived even though it was after check-in time, but the staff set us up in the bar and treated us well. There was a wedding and a concert the weekend we were there, resulting in some areas being extremely overcrowded and noisy, and the parking being full. Restaurant options are very good, and we enjoyed some of the best food and drink of our Ireland trip.
