One could argue that rooms are not so trendy but they are clean and spacious. We had a family room which was big enough with 2 double beds (the kids would have preferred 1 double and 2 singles). We went to the restaurant once, where we had some good food and excellent service. The value for the price was well... More

We stayed here in July 2012 for my wife's birthday, I had asked for flowers and champagne to be in the room and chilled for our arrival.

We recently stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and found it very disappointing. The whole place is very dated and in general poor condition. It was like being stuck in a depressing 80's time warp. The only Internet access was a coin operated computer in the lobby, where the printer didn't work. The staff were pleasant and helpful but... More

We stayed here in March 2012, the hotel is located a bit outside Bantry town, it would be a bit of a walk to walk back from a night out. The hotel has free parking and attractive grounds. The lobby is the most up to date part of the hotel, but still a product of its age. The staff were... More
