Top Ballineen Hotel Reviews

Recent Reviews in Ballineen

Blue Haven Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great central location. Very nice room. Only notes would be for older or disabled folks, there is no elevator ( lift ), and on a Saturday night, rightfully the town was quite lively and music thumping until midnight. Worked great for us, but not a quiet / easily accessible room. Staff was great and again, could not be more centrally located. We got very lucky with a parking spot right across the street. €1.50 per hour ( 2 hour max ) until 18:00 and then free all day Sunday."

Dunmore House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Had a really lovely and relaxing stay at Dunmore House. The room, was very nice, spacious and clean, the bed was very comfortable. The shower room was modern and spacious, the towels soft and thick. The staff were wonderful, really helpful and so friendly. Breakfast was delicious. We also ate one night in the Adrift restaurant, it was really good!! Although we hadn’t booked a sea view, as no rooms were available, we did have views of the sea from our room, though slightly restricted as a side facing window. Being able to look out at the sea from our bed was an unexpected bonus. Can’t wait to return!"

The Glen Quarter

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, very clean and super friendly staff. Highly recommend!!"

Perryville House

10/10 Excellent

"Two wonderful. Expensive but well worth the price. Wonderful room and very quiet. Extremely helpful and courteous staff. Breakfast was spectacular. We would definitely stay again."

Long Quay House

10/10 Excellent

"We spent two nights in Kinsale at Long Quay House and we highly recommend the place. The location is awesome, the room was clean with a great shower, and the property is in very good condition. The owner and staff were very helpful. Breakfasts are cooked to order. We had eggs and salmon, eggs with bacon, and porridge with fruit. There is also a self serve area with fresh croissants, scones, bread, yogurt, fruit, and a small selection of cheeses and salamis. Although there is not parking on site, there is parking directly across the street. It is readily accessible and free overnight (6pm-1030am). During the day, the city charges for parking at these same spots with pay kiosks available. But the owner also showed us where there was free parking during the day, located (about 75 yards away)."

Talbot Hotel Cork

10/10 Excellent

"We only stayed one night, and the hotel was full- but it was very quiet and we had a good nights’ rest!"

Trident Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff, comfortable rooms, great locatio"

Clonakilty Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very pleasant lady on reception who allowed us to check in a little early. Large room with a fridge (always a good find these days!). Quite warm in the room but slept fine. One of our windows had condensation between the double glassing. Shallow bath but useable. Table and chairs, tea and coffee and television. Easy parking and about two-three minutes drive to town (where we had a great pizza). Very children friendly. Restaurant on site and leisure centre."

Castle Hotel Macroom

10/10 Excellent
