It's actually a lovely hotel, but their covid duty of care was extremely sloppy, merely tokenistic at best. We actually had to ask one of the owners to wear their mask while serving guests. But the worst was one of their staff was coughing and spluttering around the breakfast room without a mask. Avoid, avoid, avoid!!!! ##### Niall Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary 24 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Gorgeous Absolutely gorgeous hotel, the staff were excellent! Everything was so clean, freshly renovated and done with such good taste. A lovely blonde lady that showed us to our room looked after us so well, there was really no more she could have done The barman Brian was brilliant as well, we had the television in front of the bar and I never had to even ask for a drink even though they were so so busy ##### Mary Stayed 1 night in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 12 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Relaxing Few Days ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Eddie 9 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Rooms are very spacious and very comfortable.

Right by the Blarney Castle. Staff was excellent. Old world pub and restaurant with excellent local music on Tuesday evening.(Just happened to be the day we checked in). Shower was a little snug due to a grab bar in a really bad spot. Hard to stand in shower and not be leaning on bar and touching curtain on other side. Other than that, the best area in Ireland. ##### TonyP Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 15 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 13 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ann, San Diego 8 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff are very kind and helpful. The food in their pub and restaurant is amazing. The hotel is a very short walk to the castle. Our room was large, very comfortable, attractive and functional. ##### Ann Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 19 Dec 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Let me start off with the good of this property. It was in a great location to go to the Blarney Castle and they let us leave the rental car there while we visited the castle. The food was great. However, the room was not clean and the heat did not work. Specifically, there was a lot mold on the shower walls and I had to try to wash off the mold from the shower curtain in the tub before trying to use it. We asked to move rooms but were denied. They did bring in a space heater to the room which made the no heat a little better but we did not want to run the space heater all night while we were sleeping. While traveling in Ireland we stayed at several hotels and all were in the same price of each other, so I can say for the same price you can find MUCH better. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff 24 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Loved Blarney Castle Hotel Our trip to Blarney Castle was magical!!!
