Springtime magic is in the air—and The Limerick Strand Hotel is giving one lucky winner the chance to enjoy a luxurious two-night Easter Escape for two adults, including breakfast each morning and a sumptuous dinner on one evening.
From March 28th to April 12th, 2026, the hotel transforms into a lively haven of creativity, colour, and celebration with its much-loved Great Easter Escape. Whether you adore long spring walks, cultural discoveries, or simply unwinding in comfort, this is your chance to soak up the joy of the season in style.
Your prize includes a two-night stay in one of the hotel’s beautifully appointed guestrooms, where calm, comfort, and modern elegance come together seamlessly. Each morning begins with the hotel’s renowned, award-winning breakfast, the perfect fuel for a day of Easter adventures. One evening, you’ll enjoy a carefully crafted dinner bursting with local flavours at The River Restaurant & Bar—a highlight of every stay at the Limerick Strand Hotel.
Over Easter, the entire property buzzes with family-friendly activity. Young visitors staying at the hotel enjoy arts and crafts workshops each morning, including Easter Bunny Portraits, egg decorating, and bunny mask making—filling the hotel with festive colour and fun. While your prize is adults only, the shared sense of celebration creates a lovely, uplifting atmosphere throughout your stay.
Guests also enjoy complimentary access to the Energize Health Centre, home to a 20‑metre swimming pool, sauna, jacuzzi, and a complete fitness suite for those who like a boost of energy before exploring.
And there’s so much to explore. Limerick bursts into life in spring: stroll the riverside paths along the Shannon, wander the city’s historic streets, or venture further afield to the serene woodland trails of Curraghchase Forest Park, the exhilarating Ballyhoura Mountain Trails, or the sweeping vistas of the Limerick Greenway. Better yet, the hotel offers complimentary walking, running, and cycling maps, plus suggested driving itineraries—ideal for those wishing to roam beyond the city.
A major highlight of the Great Easter Escape is the hotel’s exclusive guest discounts, giving visitors access to an impressive 22 different attractions and activities across Limerick and Clare. From cultural landmarks to outdoor adventures and family‑friendly experiences, this extensive range of savings means you can explore more, do more, and enjoy exceptional value throughout your Easter break. Whether you’re diving into history, discovering scenic trails, or ticking off must‑see local gems, these discounts offer a superb variety of options to make your stay even more memorable.
If you’re arriving for the Easter weekend, consider booking the hotel’s much-loved Easter Sunday Lunch Buffet on April 5th—featuring delicious dishes, a glass of bubbly for adults, and Easter eggs for children visiting with their families. It’s one of the hotel’s most joyful days of the year.
With its extraordinary location overlooking the River Shannon, exceptional service, and a warm, festive atmosphere, the Limerick Strand Hotel is the perfect place for an Easter escape—and now you could enjoy it all for free.
