The room was very large and the bed comfortable- well furnished. The breakfast which was included in the price was excellent. The hotel was well situated in Blarney for visiting the castle and stone and the woollen mill.

There was no one at reception and I thought I had arrived at the wrong hotel initially. The car park was very small holding perhaps 4 cars. Parking on the road was for 2 hours only. I had asked for a meal to be booked but the hotel, bar and restaurant were very busy as it was Saturday.The restaurant was very busy and the hotel seating area full of drinkers from the overflowing bar. I think I would have a different experience on a weekday. This was the most expensive hotel I booked in Ireland and I had had great expectations for my stay here.

The breakfast was excellent…the best scones we’ve ever had! It was just a few hundred yards from the Blarney Castle, so the location was great. And we got a lot of helpful suggestions on things to do in the Kenmare and Ring of Kerry area! I went down to listen to the live music for a while in the pub at night. It was very enjoyable, and surprisingly, you could hardly hear any noise from the music up in our room. The room was large, clean, cozy, beautifully decorated, and the bed was very comfortable! All in all, a very good experience at the Blarney Castle Hotel!

Beautiful hotel. Very clean, modern and comfortable. We could walk to the castle and gardens across the street. Super easy and convenient! The bar and resturant were great too.

Super irish live band in pub!

This was the best hotel at our 1 weeks Ireland trip. - The staff is super friendly. They are really there to help. - Good breakfast. - Closest hotel to the Blarney Castle. - We could leave our bags after check-out.

Perfect location with the most attentive and helpful staff! Loved our stay here and will recommend to anyone looking to visit Blarney

I liked this quaint homely hotel staff were so helpful and polite.the mattress was so comfortable in fact one of the best sleeps I have had in a hotel our breakfast was just perfect the staff were polite helpful we will stay again at this charming littles gem

Car park is very small Maybe enough for six cars I got lucky but don't let this put you off

They made our 50th Anniversary very special!

Super convenient to Blarney Castle and the pubs / shops around town. The restaurant and pubs were also great as eight downstairs.

The rooms were a bit tight, but nothing unmanageable . There is also no lift but the staff was very helpful.

Old and close to the Castle!

Convenient location to Blarney Castle Staff very welcoming and friendly Room comfortable Added bonus was live music in bar

Nothing to dislike

Location

Everything!

The location, the decor and the comforts were fabulous. However, the staff were the icing on the cake - so kind and generous like we’ve never experienced.

Breakfast was excellent Also the reason for being there was for the castle and that was only 100m away so awesome

Unfortunately for us we had a front room over the main door and there was a wedding function and another function on which went to after 1 am and the noise with groups leaving and getting taxi,s was very loud and disturbing .

Excellent breakfast! Very friendly, approachable staff. Convenient bar/restaurant within hotel.

Location (town) was more quiet than expected. Only two pubs/restaurants available in town. Other Blarney castle, little to no night activities

The staff was incredibly kind and accommodating! Who particularly enjoyed the great location, and the awesome bar downstairs. The breakfast was also delicious in the morning.

A few minutes’ walk to Blarney Castle, this character hotel was a lovely place to stay. Opulent curtains and decoration. The staff were all friendly and helpful including the owner Una who always ensured our needs were met. Our room was a good size and had two windows that could be opened and overlooked a small park. We could also see the top of Blarney Castle in the distance. We accessed the room from the small carpark at the rear of the hotel and surprisingly we were able to park in the hotel car park every night. The room was spacious with mirrored wardrobes and plenty of storage. Everything was clean and tidy. Double bed, tea and coffee making facilities, hairdryer. Plenty of plug sockets. TV. The bathroom was a good size with a nice shower. During our two nights stay we ate in the Hotel restaurant both times and found the food and ambience to be lovely. Breakfast the following morning was good and included a selection of lovely cooked breakfasts and cereals/fruit from the menu which set us up well for the day.

Nothing.
