accommodation punchestown

[firenuts]

Going to the festival for the first time, i was looking for hotel accommodation but unsure where to stay. I have been to Dublin several times so would rather stay some where else. Needs to be lively!

Would appreciate anyones experience or advice.

Thanks Sid

Naas is where the craic is each evening of the festival and its not far in a taxi to the track. Never stayed in Naas so couldnt tell you what hotel/b&b but Id get booking asap!

Naas is a fine town.
Curryhill House (cheaper) or Killashee House Hotels are where the racing people might be.

There are a good few choices in Naas firenuts, what sort of budget do you have per night, remembering that sterling is practically 1:1 with the Euro now?

I really like the Punchestown festival – the atmosphere is far less frenetic that at Cheltenham but still be really great – indeed it is one of my favourite meetings in terms of atmosphere.

Personally I commute each day – if you book at the right time you can get very cheap flights – last year I think the most I paid for a return flight was £24, some days it was only £10 return. Even adding in the car parking and car hire it still works out cheaper than staying in a hotel, with the added bonus you get to sleep in your own bed each night.

I’d also recommend Killashee House – stayed there a couple of times and it’s pretty good.
