    It was disastrous, my wife decided to go down the town for a walk around as she was walking she noticed foreigners watching her every move and they then started to pair up and follow her, she felt so threatened that she had to go into spar shop and wait for me to collect her. Would never visit there again.

    Kinsale is a fantastic town for a weekend away.

    Kinsale is a fantastic town for a weekend away. There are several excellent restaurants where you will have unforgettable experiences. The Black Pig and Finns Farmcut are amazing. Breakfast can be hit or miss, The Lemon Leaf and OHK were excellent. If the weather allows the walk out to Charles Fort is lovely, with a pint of Murphy’s at the Bulmans. The views at the Old Head of Kinsale are breathtaking, and Garretstown Beach is stunning. The tour and tasting at Kinsale Mead is fascinating and a unique highlight. Be careful choosing where to stay, as standards are not reflected by star ratings, and the centre can be noisy. Parking is challenging with two hour max at the central car park, better at SuperValu but you’ll need to move your car overnight.

    We arrived later in the evening but were welcomed wonderfully. If you drive to the hotel, know that parking is only what you find on the street. Our room was lovely and spacious and the bathroom was nice. There isn't an elevator available so if you are on the 3rd floor like we were, be prepared to pull your bags up the stairs. Be sure to book a paid breakfast with your room reservation. It was soooo good and one of the best meals we had in 2 weeks. A good breakfast gave us the energy to tackle a busy day. Kinsale is a lovely town and even mid-week on a foggy fall day, we loved walking around.

    Kinsale is a picturesque hilly harbourside town with great shops and restaurants. We had beautiful weather enjoyed walking around the town and took the harbor cruise. There were lots of good restaurants (a few require reservations way ahead), lively pubs, and various take-away food options. We stayed 2 nights, but only had 1 full day to explore the town. The roads into town are extremely steep & narrow, so we were happy to be able to park once at our guest house and not drive again till we left. Taxis are almost impossible to find. We ate at Fishy Fishy (had reservations months ahead) our first night and at the Blue Haven Restaurant & Bistro the second night. The live music was great. We heard great things about the Ghost Tour, but didn't have time for that. Parking can be an issue so make sure your guesthouse/hotel has parking. Stop at the Tourism office for great suggestions.

    It is a beautiful village on a bay with an old-world charm. It can be quite busy as it is rightly popular. Lots of local shops, pubs and restaurants, all with an authentic feel. Beside the harbour, their are two marinas, two castle ruins and a lovely beach. It is also near the beginning of the Wild Atlantic Way which runs clockwise round the west coats of Ireland. 25 minutes from Cork airport, this place is a real gem

    John is an absolute gent. I can't speak more highly of him. His bnb is beautiful. This was the best bnb we have stayed in. The room was lovely, good power from the shower, bed was comfy and beautiful views. The breakfast was excellent. You wouldn't get it as good in a hotel who have all turned to buffets. The breakfast here is fresh, cooked to order. The walk to town is lovely, quiet country road into the heart of kinsale, takes maybe 15 or 20 minutes. Would 100% recommend.

    we had a lovely room. Mauve is wonderful. The location is perfect to walk to all the shops and many good restaurants. The breakfast is the best I’ve had so far in Ireland. It’s a full Irish breakfast with great fruits cheeses meats bread marmalade and jam. It was great to have a nice on-site parking lot. It was also great to park because the tiny streets of Kinsale are pretty scary. I would highly recommend and if we ever return We will come back to Blind gate house.

    first- The young man that checked us in was very professional, polite and helpful. We booked several rooms for a family trip and all were comfortable, and very clean. An old gworgian design the hotel had real charm and is located in a great place to visit Kinsale. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful and again, the entire staff (a fmily affair) were perfect hosts. We wish we would have scheduled more time in Kinsale.

    One of the best Irish breakfasts I ever had in a hotel. The dinner in the evening was excellent. Both the bar and the restaurant where busy both nights that we stayed and the staff where very friendly and cheerful with everyone. Shower in room was very good and the bed very comfortable. A pleasant hotel to stay in. Would be happy to return sometime in the future.

    Ann was the best hostess we have ever had the pleasure of staying with. That seems like a simple answer…. But she is exceptional. Second time in Kinsale, stayed in a beautiful high end hotel the first time with no complaints but I would come back to Pier Side again over the pricier hotel, no questions asked!

    Ladies who book this hotel will be delighted with the Dyson hairdryers in the room - no little small plastic makeshift ones at this hotel. Very friendly staff at reception and in the restaurant. Breakfast was very nice. Location was great to stroll around Kinsale at your leisure.

    Owners Francis and Colm were super welcoming, informative, kind and fun! The location was the best we could have hoped for! The accommodation was beyond our expectations, as we had 2 spacious floors to ourselves with a kitchen and bath. Recently renovated, so it was pristine!

    Extremely clean rooms (normally carpet on the floor leads to my allergies acting up, but this was not the case here) and friendly staff. The breakfast was about the best we had in Ireland as well. The house was nice with cosy sitting areas.
