Hotel Murphys (Wicklow, Ireland)

About Murphys

Murphy’s hotel, Tinahely, Co. Wicklow, adjacent to the famous Wicklow Way, provides excellent accommodation. Its close proximity to Ballybeg wedding venue, Coollattin, Maccreddin, Woodenbridge golf clubs, walking trails/loops & the monastic site at Glendalough (39km) makes it a popular choice. The hotel is wheelchair friendly with an elevator/lift for ease of access. To find out more see ‘About Us’. The Hotel is situated in the centre of Tinahely, an old estate village in the Derry river valley, Southwest Wicklow. It is well documented that the village was burned to the ground in the 1798 Rebellion. Aanecdotal evidence suggests that Murphy’s hotel escaped destruction as residents fanned smoke out the windows to create the impression that the public house, as it was then, had already caught fire. The hotel was purchased by the Horan family in 2005 and opened as a bar & lounge Christmas of the same year. Most recently it has been renovated to include ten bedrooms earning it hotel status, a real labour of love for the family members who were actively involved in the build. All rooms have been finished to a very high standard.
