"I was greeted by Anthony the owner when I first arrived. I travel a lot & I don't think I've ever had a more friendly arrival in my 30 years of traveling! The restaurant was amazing with flavorful food & the bar was maybe even better! I will definitely be back next time I'm in Kinsale!"

"We loved our stay at Perryville. The location was excellent. Check in was a breeze. The bellman was especially helpful throughout our stay. He offered assistance by directing traffic and pointing us in the right direction when we left. The room was huge with an amazing view. My only suggestion is that if there was a safe in the room we couldn't locate it. Thank you, and we hope to come back."
