Pros +
- The building and surroundings are really nice. For lovers of traditional houses, this is a good place to spend some time.
- The hotel is a bit of the beaten track, which is great since there's not going to be much noise. Located just outside of Bantry, you're a 5 minute drive from the town.The hotel is splendid. It's beautiful, outside and inside. Rooms are big (we did have the Jr Suite), well appointed and charming. We even had a door to the garden, which was great since we're travelling with a dog.The room even has a top notch nespresso machine... very helpful in the morning.Breakfast was very good, all inclusive with a buffet and on order any type of hot breakfast, and of course a full Irish breakfast.They have a very nice and modern spa facility, including seaweed bath.
- Staff were very friendly and hard working. Did all they could to make guests comfortable.
Cons -
- The room I got was smaller than expected.Heat in the room stops during the night, and windows are not sealed properly.Breakfast could use some variation. Though, good quality.Quite expensive for the offering.
- Nothing to not like. The hotel just reopened on 12 March, my first night. There were a couple of quirks with the way the sockets for the TV and the kettle which I had not realised but were sorted by staff.
- Can't think of anything.

From start to finish our stay was wonderful . Gorgeous place , tasteful and homely , gorgeous room , comfy bed . Exceptional staff and delicious dinner . Breakfast was lovely . Spa and facilities excellent . A real Gem . Wr will be back in the Mew Year!
Really nice hotel - lovely room with a view of the sea - comfortable bed with a nice bathroom. The hotel has a relaxed "country house" feel with a great bar and friendly staff. We had a cocktail and then a lovely dinner, with great food, wine and service. Breakfast next morning was excellent - my only very small issue was the coffee could have been better. We stayed one night, as part of a few days driving the Wild Atlantic Way - highly recommended.
Can't think of anything.
Breakfast. Presentation and selection very good However I had an omelette which was burned black on top would have sent it back but for the pleasant friendly serverLiked the old world style /the staff /
The heating in the resturant and public areas was not adequateMake better use of the fire places to create warmth feeling if fires can’t be lit
Ronin was the perfect host. Eileen was very kind, as was Helen. Justine gave me the best massage I’ve ever had in my life, she’s worth her weight in gold. I don’t know who would ever replace her. And Leemore was very helpful to me & a great Massuer as well.
Nothing!
Gorgeous country hotel in a beautiful spot. The hosts could not have been more kind and helpful. The food at dinner and breakfast was excellent. The spa experience was also fabulous especially after long flights
Passable
The breakfast was a complete let down and I would have expected a lot more given the price we paid to stay last Friday night for the tour de beara cycle. Great opportunity there for the guest house to attract guests to return for the annual cycle Over priced all in all.
Firstly, thank you for providing breakfast st 7 , I believe 7.30 is the normal time, as cyclists we were up at 630 for the cycling event in glengarrif. However breakfast choice was poor, not a lot to choose from and someone forgot to serve me my toast.
On arriving to the hotel I was greeted my a mass of pot holes at the main gate...surely the manager is aware of this..needs repair work immediately.
Clean, character, spacious
Hotel a bit old fashioned but comfy and welcoming. Restaurant dinner was fabulous and breakfast was one of the best hote
Beautiful surroundings. Beautiful food.Exceptional staff who go above and beyond.Spotlessly clean.So peaceful and quiet.Perfect location as a base to tour around West Cork.
No lift. Not disability friendly if you book a room on the upper floors and it was a bath instead of a walk-in shower, again not disability friendly. Maybe available in other rooms, so check before booking.
The staff were super friendly, the food was fabulous for both breakfast and dinner, and we loved our lovely view from our room.The location is great too for anyone doing the Bantry cycle.We will definitely be back !
There is nothing we didn't like :-)
Breakfast was delicious,good variety of continental and cooked food(hot and fresh local ingredients)It was all first class Evening meal was 5star such tasty and lovely presented meal.Staff were very friendly and attentive
Breakfast good , location good
Room size for suite very small
The staff were very welcoming & friendly, the breakfast was very good, a good choice of cereals & fresh fruit & a lovely Irish breakfast
It’s a lovely old house, but could do with a revamp, we had a four poster bed that was quite old , very creaky .
The staff in the hotel (especially in the restaurant) were fantastic. Nothing was ever too much trouble. The food was terrific and the hotel had a lovely relaxed vibe. I would definitely recommend this place. The location was really good. We hope to return!
The Reception desk was generally unmanned and sometimes it was hard to speak to someone.Also, TV options were basic but it's rural Ireland and we weren't there to watch telly.
Excellent Breakfast.
I would have expected better quality rooms for a Superior double room than experienced. The room was old and lacking updated amenities for the price of the room.
Great staff, between the two young lads behind the bar, Lydia at reception and the two ladies at breakfast, they should be proud of themselves for the service they provided.The food at breakfast was the best I've eaten in a hotel and I've eaten in at least a hundred hotels.The family room was ma-hu-sive and the room to the front had a fantastic view, made all the better with the sun shining through.Guinness was good and didn't sample the spa area but I'd definitely recommend this hotel.
