Inspired by two remarkable women with roots in Mayo—Grace O’Malley, the legendary 16th-century Pirate Queen, and Hollywood icon Grace Kelly—The Grace embodies their shared spirit of bold Elegance, and refined sophistication. Just a short stroll from the vibrant town of Westport, and nestled within the 430-acre grounds of Westport Estate, the hotel offers an experience of slow luxury: a serene location where guests are invited to unwind in style and embrace moments of stillness and renewal. Here, time moves differently.
Dining at The Grace celebrates the richness of the land, with seasonal menus crafted in collaboration with local artisans and producers who know the region intimately. Every dish is a reflection of place—rooted in authenticity.
The hotel features 129 thoughtfully designed bedrooms, including four graceful suites and a selection of premium and deluxe rooms, all offering a sense of calm, comfort, and understated luxury. Universally accessible accommodations ensure every guest feels welcome. Wellness is at the heart of the experience, with a 20-metre pool, a fully equipped gym, and tranquil spa facilities curated for restoration and renewal.
Whether seeking quiet solitude or meaningful connection, guests will find space to do both.
For corporate retreats and gatherings, The Grace offers elegant indoor and outdoor venues for up to 300 delegates. From intimate meetings to large-scale conferences, each event is supported by state-of-the-art technology and a dedicated team committed to delivering seamless, personalised service at every touchpoint.
And when the day’s work is done, the surroundings truly come to life.
Voted Ireland’s Best Place to Live, Westport is a town that surprises at every turn, where natural beauty and cultural richness go hand in hand:
Follow the sound of traditional music into a warm, fire-lit pub,
Walk the ancient pilgrimage route to the summit of Croagh Patrick,
Marvel at the stars in Ireland’s only Gold Tier International Dark Sky Park,
Explore the heritage of Foxford Woollen Mills, sail across Clew Bay, or venture by ferry to Clare Island or Achill.
At The Grace, you’ll find a rare combination: elegance without fuss, luxury without pretence, and Ireland at its most inviting.
We look forward to welcoming you — with warmth, flavour, and unforgettable moments to connect.
