"The staff could not have more accommodating! From the very start, assisting with luggage as well as promptly fixing our tv and apologizing for it giving us an issue. They also were so helpful giving us advise on where to go in town. It was drizzling and we had just finished the Ring of Kerry so we needed an Uber. They insisted on ordering us a cab for the same price and even walked us out and opened the cab doors for us. Saw us later back at the hotel and gave us welcome greeting and took great care of us at the bar. We had a great time listening to the wonderful music. The property is beautiful and well taken care of. We enjoyed the time there very much."

"Great hotel in Dingle. Comfy bed and nice bathroom. Walking distance to downtown. Only negative and cause I’m an American is there was no AC. “Heat wave” in Ireland and the window opens down kind of to the side walk of the parking lot. Could have used a ceiling fan at least but oh well!"
