An early competitor for the hotel was the zootel, but despite their best efforts with frilly lampshades, the owners couldn’t disguise the elephant in the room. Leave the animals at home for today’s Groupon for £139 enjoy a two night mini break, with full Irish breakfasts and a four course dinner on either night at the four star Amber Springs Hotel and Health Spa. Just 50 minutes from Dublin and 30 minutes by car from Wexford, the Amber Springs Hotel is in a convenient spot for a little luxury retreat. Built in 2006, the hotel is deckedout according to the provisions of the four star standard, with simple, elegantly furnished en suite rooms in soft oatmeal tones and with kingfisher flashes of colour. From the crisp white pillows to the tiny Elemis toiletries, and from the ample 18 metre swimming and hydrotherapy pool to the sauna, steam room and fitness studio, the hotel offers guests a number of backdrops for intense relaxation. Having dropped their valises with the valets, guests can choose to kick off a two night mini break with a four course feast in the contemporary Kelby’s Bistro. With a vast picture window running the length of the restaurant, guests can watch the evening draw in as the courses draw on, before retiring for a nightcap in the bar or heading straight upstairs to bounce on the beds. Rising early enough to make use of all the mini toiletries, guests can then skip downstairs for a full Irish breakfast before heading to lounge by the pool, work out in the gym, or seek pampered bliss in the spa. Reviews The hotel has received a number of positive reviews from guests who have praised the comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. TripAdvisor users scored 4/5 and gave further mention to the friendly efficient staff and the excellent food served at Amber Springs. All in all it was a most enjoyable few days, and I would seriously recommend this hotel. We had been here for a weekend last summer, and doubled our time this year…..maybe a week in 2012 – marymai, TripAdvisor, Aug 2011 The staff in the hotel couldnt sic be nicer or friendlier and this was commented on by nearly all of our guests. The bedrooms are big and very comfortable and the Bridal Suite is pure luxury. All in all, I couldnt sic find one fault with this hotel – Avril O, TripAdvisor, Aug 2011 Coupons from Groupon  Travel  Accommodation  Hotels  Travel East Coast and Midlands  Accommodation East Coast and Midlands  Hotels East Coast and Midlands Further deals in this category 1. Overnight Stay For Two With Bottle of Prosecco Plus Breakfast and Late CheckOut for €59 at The Waterside House Hotel 2. Night For Two With Breakfast, Wine on Arrival, and Massage for €99 at The FourStar Fitzwilton Hotel Value €281.50 3. Overnight Stay For Two With Breakfast, Bubbly, and Truffles for €77 at Bloomfield House Hotel €155 Value 4. Treat Yourself and a Friend to a Night Away in a Double or Twin Room, Bed and Breakfast at the Shannon Oaks Hotel and Country Club for only €49 instead of €119 5. One €99 or Two €189 Night Stay For Two With Breakfast, Wine and Golf or Optional Massage at the 4 Nuremore Hotel and Country Club Up to 60% Off Further deals in this city 1. Wash, Cut, Blow Dry and Joico Conditioning Treatment for €28 at Shampoo Hair Design Value €70 2. Indulge in a Silky Full Body Chocolate Massage at Creative Spa for Only €24 instead of €70 3. Allergy Testing with Dietary and Nutritional Review for €38 at Amber Allergy Testing €95 Value 4. A Wash, Cut, Blow Dry and Conditioning Treatment for €25 at The Salon Hair and Beauty Value €62 5. Two €6 or Four €10 Tickets to Any Show at Capital Comedy Club Up to 64% Off Further deals in Ireland 1. Ferrari 348 Driving Experience including 45 minute Drive and 15 minute PreDrive Briefing for €129 with Golden Moments €299 Value 2. Swedish, Holistic or Back, Neck and Shoulder Massage for €27 at Forever Beautiful Up to €65 Value 3. €15 instead of €40 for paintballing with all equipment included and 400 paintballs at Skirmish Save 63% 4. Waterski, Wakeboard or Tubing Session for €32 at Cork Powerboat Waterski Club €65 Value 5. Army Assault Course and Paintball Experience With Food and Drink for €39 at Braveforce €102 Value Further deals in other categories 1. Any Two Large Smoothies for €4 at Zumo €8.50 Value 2. Any Lingerie Set Plus Free Fitting for €30 at Change Lingerie Up to €79.90 Value 3. Six Individual HourLong Classes of Salsa, Hip Hop, Aerobics, Ballet or Pole Dancing for €28 at The National Dance Academy 4. €6 instead of €16 to explore Ireland’s capital city and visitor attractions at your leisure with your two day tour ticket with Dualway Save 63% 5. Choice of Massage €24 Plus Manicure And Pedicure €39 at The PictureHouse Beauty and Holistic Clinique Up to 71% Off Similar deals from this merchant Two Night Stay With Four Course Dinner and Breakfast For Two for €139
