Hotel
We have a room block at this hotel, there is no code, you can just call in to the front desk to make reservations under the Keen Gawne Wedding Block. +353 71 914 0008. The block is for August 14th - 16th, but if anyone wishes to stay additional days before or after the block dates, we recommend calling soon to book as it's their busy season.
Travel Note
If the other options aren't your thing, you're welcome to stay in any hotel or airbnb in Sligo or Strand Hill! We recommend wherever you book that it's on the sooner side because it will be during Ireland's peak summer holiday. Also, please keep in mind that shuttle buses will only be picking up at the Radisson & Sligo Park Hotel when scheduling your stay. Feel free to ask Maggie or Garrett for their recommendations!
Rental Car
While renting a car is not necessary, if you plan to rent, we recommend making reservations in advance as cars are limited. For our American guests, the drive from Dublin to Sligo is primarily a 4-lane highway and fairly straightforward. Make sure to confirm if you'd like to drive manual or automatic as well.
