Breakfast was incredible and the staff were so friendly.
Hotel is a old but nicely refurbed.
Breakfast was good. Had a nice chat with receptionist. Very friendly and lovely
Only stayed one night and wished we could have stayed longer.
Staff are so friendly and helpful, food was very good,
I would have liked a full shower rather than one in the bath
The location, and the breakfast was excellent
Water could have been hotter.
Breakfast was good .had dinner first night had steak sandwich beef was tough a disappointment for the price .
Hotel excellent location excellent. Excellent food and service.
Bed was very comfortable, pool & steam room also great, very friendly reception ?
NO herbal tea selection in the room & I asked for 2 earl grey & 2 chamomile tea bags @ the bar & was charged for them ridiculous also the coffee in the cafe was lovely but in the bar after our dinner it was terrible ?
The property is unique and clean, very nice.
The food in the restaurant for dinner and breakfast was subpar. I would stay at the hotel but jot go the restaurant again.
Check in was flawless. The staff were very helpful. WE were able to laundry done. The room was spacious. The breakfast was excellent. We ate in the restaurant each night. Excellent food and service.
Great breakfast with friendly and helpful staff.
Place is a bit dated needs some repair/upgrade
Food excellent although on the pricey side. Staff in bar were extremely friendly and professional. Breakfast was excellent
Expensive in my opinion. Room needed a little TLC. Socket falling off wall behind TV and no blind on bathroom letting street light and natural light into main bedroom.
Great area in County Cork, lovely people and service was excellent
Room was fantastic. Food was delicious, especially breakfast. The staff were super friendly and efficient.,
The pool is a bit tired and in need of a spruce up in places. Also it was hard to get space to swim, except early morning, as it was always almost completely taken over by children’s swimming lessons.
Great location. They staff were amazing, so very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely, but think €188+ for a double room with breakfast was a bit pricey.
All staff at the hotel are well trained, personable and a credit to the hotel.
All was first class. Only negative was the side dishes offered at dinner. Vegtables and mash were very poor quality.
The room, the breakfast, the restaurant and all the staff.
Not easily spotted in the dark, but that’s all really.
It was perfectly located in a small town that was close for an easy drive to Blarney and Cork. The hotel itself was wonderful, the staff were amazing, and the food was outstanding!
