10/10 Excellent
"The standard double room was small but well appointed for a 2-night stay. Hotel is really nicely done with a lovely bar/lobby area and a really nice 'rooftop' bar restaurant with views over the city. We had drinks at both bars and they had nice alcohol free cocktail and wine options which this pregnant lady appreciated. Didn't eat there. It's in the business district so not the buzziest part of town but that means it's nice and quiet and only a short walk into the town centre for bars and restaurants. Also convenient for the Marina Market food hall. Handily located for the train/bus station if travelling from the airport on public transport and taking a day trip to Cobh, Hertz car rental is also on the doorstep which was great for us as we then spent 2 days driving along the west coast and back."

"I booked two separate rooms for this trip. When one of the rooms I booked did not have separate beds for my daughter and grandmother the hotel made arrangements with a sister property down the street, saved the Stay!"

Kinsale Hotel & Spa

Kinsale Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"We spent only one night in Kinsale hotel and spa. The room was specious and the views were spectacular. We stayed in the harbor view room. Unfortunately we didn’t have enough time to visit the spa but it looked amazing. Breakfast was great with so many options in it. The staff was who made this one night stay so good, friendly, helpful and cheerful. I couldn’t fault them. The only negative for this hotel that you need a car to go to the city. It is close but you can’t walk it because it is a bit away from anything. The hotel offers a shuttle bus to the city but you need to book a taxi to come back. You need at least an hr to be able to get a taxi so make sure you pre-book your way back. The toilet floor seems to be noisy when walking over it. Other than that everything was perfect. I wish I had more time in Kinsale to enjoy the hotel and its views further."
