The hotel sits right on the Glengariff harbor; the front-facing rooms all have wonderful views. The rooms are good-sized but perhaps a little spartan. Eccles has recently opened a spa with three treatment rooms and a so-called relaxation room overlooking Bantry Bay. Treat yourself! You can enjoy a drink or a snack on the front porch or a casual dinner in the Harbor Bar. But go to dinner at Garinish Restaurant -- *especially* if Eddie Attwell is around. Eddie is a superstar in the garden and in the kitchen but he's low-key about his accolades. Better yet, he's over-the-top friendly and fun to chat with. We've been lucky enough to have 7 or 8 different dishes that Eddie prepared, including several that weren't on the menu. All were memorable. One of my favorites was a simple but extraordinary beetroot salad with creamy Irish blue cheese. I enjoyed my first ever buckwheat risotto. And the desserts! The brownie made with a beer stout -- more please. It's too bad that Eddie is 5000 miles away. I'd be eating there all of the time.

You could easily stay on property with the abundance of activities, food options, great bar and lounges, and just lovely grounds to walk and explore but they also offer trips into town as well. You aren't going to get those views many places, and we absolutely loved having breakfast by the Falls every morning. From a full Irish breakfast to fresh brewed coffee and pastries, it's a wonderful way to start the day. Michelin rated restaurant on property or you can choose from other more casual but wonderful options. This is definitely a place we will return to, 5 star

The room that we are staying in has been remodeled very recently and is very currently decorated and large, especially for a European hotel. We are very pleased!

The Seafood Chowder and Lamb Shoulder were over-the-top good, cooked to perfection, tender, and unique! The Sea-bass was tender and excellent! The Lamb Shepherd's Pie was not too grainy, even for someone who usually can't eat much lamb because of a mild allergy, and the lamb was very tender! The lamb was smothered with delicious mashed potatoes and vegetables, and the vegetables tasted garden-fresh and were cooked to perfection! The servers were so warm and kind!

I stopped here in a pinch (on a holiday when the hotel was closed, no less) looking for a place to stay because I was exhausted from hiking and sleeping in puddles. The owner put me up in a beautiful apartment with a balcony and an amazing view, for a very affordable price. He went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed, including amazing food brought right to my room. If you have any question of where to stay, put this place at the top of the list!

We booked a room with a view and it was really worth paying some extra pennies. It was stunning, just beautiful. Breakfast is good, one day we had buffet, the others a la carte. All ok. Also dinner is eatable but I recommend restaurants in the village. The hotel is clean but sometimes it lacks refinement, but nothing to worry about. I would go back in a heartbeat cause we really spent some nice 4 days there.
