Ballina Business Profile: The Ice House

Ballina Business Profile: The Ice House

History of the Hotel

Originally called the ‘Iceland Cottage’ the Ice House hotel is a building steeped in history. Strategically positioned on the Moy Estuary, (which became the principal sea-port of Ireland) in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century tons of wild salmon were preserved here under ice before being shipped to the markets of Dublin and Liverpool. Today it stands built anew, once again a place to rest a while…but in an altogether different kind of cool.

Style

Contemporary chic meets traditional elegance throughout Mayo’s 4 Star Ice House Hotel. It’s the little details you remember. Like the comforting goose down duvets, the waterside hot tubs and sauna and the original pieces of art that catch your eye everywhere. Created by three of Irelands finest artists…Charles Tyrrell, Martin Gale and John Devlin…like the Ice House itself they are far from ordinary.

SERVICE

With just 32 bedrooms and suites, at this boutique Ballina hotel you can look forward to personal service that is second to none. First class food and drink, VOYA organic seaweed lotions and potions, comfort with spectacular views and an award winning Chill Spa that guarantees to soothe are just the beginning.
