The front of the Hotel looks ok and the reception area is very modern..however that is where it stops. The rooms were less than warm and my fiancee had to ask them to turn it on after... More

Stayed during July 2011. Hotel is in middle of Bantry. There are no elevators. There was bugs on bathroom floor and stains on hotel room floor. One of the windows would not open as it was screwed closed. Comforters were old and outdated. 3 beds in room, all with springs sticking out. Room smelled. More

We stayed here for 1 night on a family holiday through Ireland, we wanted 3 rooms and for 80 Euro they were very small.The breakfast was good but considering the price a B&B would have given us more value and room. The hotel was OK but would defiantly rethink if we were there again. More

Despite the good location, The Reception and the best business award is definitely deceiving!! its Modern looking and the staff at the desk were lovely and helpful. But it all ended once we walked up the stairs. We didn't realise we needed to ask for a non-smoking room, the toilet made an awful sound when it flushed. we also had... More
