Nestling at the foot of the Mountains of Mourne, the Slieve Donard Hotel is Northern Ireland 's favourite holiday hotel and celebrated its Centenary in 1997. The hotel stands in six acres of private grounds which lead to an extensive golden strand and to the world famous Royal County Down Golf Club. Offering deluxe accommodation. Luxurious surroundings and excellent facilities for holiday and weekend breaks, the hotel provides the ideal setting for every occasion. Due to major re-development our Elysium Health Club will be closed from 01 January 2005 until Spring 2006.
