Here at the award-winning 4 star Castleknock Hotel, we have a long-standing tradition of hosting sports teams to Dublin since the hotel opened in 2005. lt is the perfect sports training venue to provide the maximum benefit to your team's preparation.

You go through Rugby destinations in the World to play for 80 minutes and some of the best experiences when you look back at all destinations you go to are held very close to our hearts . It might not be just because of the places you visit or the food you eat, for me the most memorable ones deal with the connection that we make with people we cross paths with in our travels.
