I haven't visited for a while and looked on tripadvisor. A disproportionate number of the positive reviews seem to be from people located in Cork. Is that strange, or is it just me?
I have not stayed there but I have a friend who really enjoyed it and she is hard to please. If a place passes her standards I usually think it must have been good.
My brother had his wedding reception there in 2007.
It was a fine hotel, good food, rooms were excellent imo.
Wouldn't have any issues with the place but that could be coloured by the party atmosphere you know like...
Hi,
I'm interested in going to West Cork and just saw this thread. I was looking at this hotel and was quoted a good price for the weekend after the bank hol.
Is Bantry a lively town? Is there a lot to do around there? I'm pregnant so nightlife wont be a huge factor but would stil like a good buzz in the bars with music etc at night.
Any opinions would be great.
Thanks.
Stayed there about three years ago and could find no fault with the hotel. Good standard of accommodation, food was very good, clean, good location: ticks all the boxes.
Personally if and when I am back down that part of the country, I would be happy to stay there.
Stayed there on a hen weekend and on a weekend with other half. My parents have also stayed there. Suitable for all ages so don't let their hen special frighten you off. Gorgeous hotel. Loved it. (Am from Cork too!)
stayed there about 6 weeks ago, 2 adults 2 kids, lovely hotel, rooms very nice, be sure to check out bantry house which is just up the road from hotel, fantastic old grand house and gardens and they serve the best scones i ever tasted!!
