We had our wedding here and it was stunning. The food was amazing, the rooms so comfortable and spacious. The portions and wine was so generous. The staff were extremely helpful, kind, courteous and easy to deal with both on the day, at the tasting and during the whole planning process. We couldn't have enjoyed it more or could recommend it highly enough, for a meal, a drink, a night's stay or a wedding day. An absolutely stunning location, beautiful venue and thoroughly relaxing experience. We chose the venue due to our consistently positive experience here over the years and fond and happy memories here both for meals, drinks and enjoying the annual festival of writing and ideas. Also very good value for money.

Another fabulous stay at The Step House hotel in Borris. We absolutely love this hotel - the food is excellent - beautifully presented by friendly and efficient staff who go out of their way to ensure that the stay is perfect. We have also been during the Summer months when the garden is in full bloom and it is a pleasure to sit there - to listen to the birds singing and to admire the flowers whilst sipping a glass of wine - definitely one of life's pleasures.

Had dinner in the bar. The restaurant had no bookings on the night we visited so we didn't want to be dining on our own. The restaurant menu was available in the bar. I had wild venison (€38) - this came with no veg so I ordered a portion of seasonal veg (€4.50). The seasonal veg turned out to be green beans and nothing else. Somebody is having a laugh here!!

The Hotel accommodation and Staff were just superb, the atmosphere was simply so relaxing and I can state that we were all appreciative of the service provided. The surrounding countryside and views from Mount Leinster added to the joy of our stay at Dtep House

I attended the Step House for a Christmas lunch with the Borris lace makers, a group of 24 woman. We have to say the food was fabulous and the service was excellent. We would like to mention Benny for the great service we were giving. We will be back.

Few villages the size of Borris are blessed with so good a hotel. The step house is family owned and run with an eye on elegance and quality. The annual dinner of a small sports club brought me there. Lovely function room, attentive staff, good quality drink and gorgeous food immaculately prepared and served. Delicious soup and breads, hake in a bed of tomatoes, perfect veg and to-die-for mash potatoes. An absolutely delicious dessert. Wines were very reasonable and good. They just know how to do simple elegant quality. Wonderful.
