The hotel is a fine boutique hotel with real seaview. The building is nice, the park surrounding it is wonderful. You can admire 2 m long hydrangeas during breakfast! We had a room on the second floor with sea view, we liked that a lot. The room was nice, the bed a little small for two people. The whole place is very quiet, very elegant. There is a restaurant also, we have tried it once, it is more expensive than the average in the vicinity. We did not try the spa services because we had other obligations. You need a car, because the towns nearby are not walking distance. Suggested for those who want to really stay away for a couple of days and enjoy old furniture etc.

The water-sewege system is a little outdated, the water pressure is sometimes low. The bathroom is tiny, and the windows are the old type. Overally, the hotel might think of a little modernisation to attract also younger generations.

The hotel was rather dated (which isn't really obvious from the photographs) although the garden and the restaurant/breakfast room were lovely. We ate dinner in the restaurant and it was delicious - as was breakfast (I can remember really enjoying the stewed rhubarb!). The hotel is set back from the main road so is quiet but I was hoping to be able to walk around the bay from the hotel - which wasn't possible.

The shower had a control which needed twisting and it was very stiff - most people wouldn't have a problem with it, but for the elderly it might be a problem.

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.

There was nothing I didn't like.

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.

Everything was fabalous. Breakfast was delicious. Beautiful home -made jams, ruburb, bacon, and breads, Dinner was fabalous , Staff were so friendly. And the REAL tea to our bedroom, with chocolates and shortbread biscuits were JUST yummy

Nothing,

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.

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.

Staff were very friendly and hard working. Did all they could to make guests comfortable.

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.

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

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!
