Kinsale Hotel & Spa

Kinsale Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel far exceeded our expectations & it's a bonus it's in the most beautiful of locations, it's peaceful and quiet. It's very modern and has all the extras you'd expect, all the staff were all welcoming, smiley and friendly. The spa / pool area was fabulous & it was lovely to have an early morning swim. Breakfast was delicious, we were lucky enough to have fabulous weather & able to eat breakfast on the terrace. The transfer bus into Kinsale (one way) was great. The Kinsale Hotel & Spa is a hidden gem & I would have no hesitation in recommending & next time we are in Cork, without doubt would book again."

Long Quay House

10/10 Excellent
"Very communicative prior to the stay with all of our questions. There's street and regular parking very close to the property that you pay for and it's free on Sundays. Room we had was very spacious and clean! We went during the heatwave and there was no AC but luckily there was a fan for us to use at night. Water pressure of the shower was also great with shampoo and body wash. Great view of the water and unique tide that comes in everyday. Also in perfect walking distance of all the shops and pubs. Also a good spot to walk to the two different forts in Kinsale."
