    Great start to our 3 week adventure. We arrived beyond exhausted after the worst travel day ever…read more But arrived here in the evening and could not recommend this hotel more. Thankfully they had a lift (elevator) as we had 3 weeks worth of stuff. We decided to consolidate the next couple days into our smaller suitcase. But our room had another room as you come in. Plenty of room to store our 6 bags without being in our way. The beds were firmer than we are used to. But we slept well. Room was quiet and dark. Shower bath had excellent water pressure. Staff were so welcoming and helpful. Definitely get their breakfast!!! We didnt have time to try the spa. Park is included but have to walk a couple blocks. Wish we were staying longer here. Cute town. Lovely cathedrals. Castle. Strolled the River walk. Dinner Matt the Miller.

    This review is for Lafayette's inside this hotel. A food tour as part of a team building event…read morebrought us to Lafayette's and I had the most delicious Gluten-Free scone I've ever had. On my last day before I departed from Cork I decided to go back for more. Unfortunately, they had none of the scones that day BUT they had the most amazing Gluten-Free chocolate something muffin. I thought the scone was good but THIS was phenomenal. Spongy, soft, melt in your mouth goodness. I was going to take a few home with me on the plane but they only had one left! It paired extremely well with a latte!

    I went with two friends who have been here already a couple of times. For me it was the first time…read morethat I got to try seaweed baths at all. Already the journey to them is part of the relaxation. Beautiful views towards what feels like the end of the world. Just a small harbour and a lifeboat station are at the end of the little road. All staff that I met was very friendly, natural and competent. As it was my first time there I had to fill out a form, including any medial conditions. As this area is Gaeltacht it was first in Irish then in English. The staff speaks English. We had a special offer package via Pigsback which included a massage, facial, seaweed bath and refreshments. I enjoyed all three of them very much and felt very comfortable, enjoying some pampering. As expected you can say any special requirements for the massage or the facial. The facial can include colouring of the eye lashes and eyebrow. I got an introduction how to use the seaweed bath which included first using the cedar wood steam box, then the warm / hot seawater bath where you after a while add the seeweed that is waiting for you in a bucket. Talking to my friends afterwards the amount of seaweed seems to vary depending on the seaweed available. When I was there is was very rich and oily so it was seemingly less than on other occasions. But enough to rub it into your skin and to enjoy the treatment. The food (soup or sandwich) afterwards was tasty and nicely filling. People also came into the cafe after walks around the area just to have a coffee or for something to eat. As we were there on a lovely warm and sunny day we got to enjoy and further relax after the treatment in the tranquill surroundings. But I'd say even or especially on a cold and rainy day it's a lovely escape from our daily lives.

    I was a big fan of this place- the grounds are magical, with a splendid setting right on the…read moreAtlantic ocean on 500 acres. They have 3 pools, a nice spa with free steam rooms and gym, ocean access (though bring a wet suit!), and two restaurants. I thought service was excellent, and the food in the restaurants was very good. They have a family room (king plus two twins) which was very reasonable and a great option for families. There's lots to do- a game room, tennis courts, walking trails, murder mystery, etc. We really enjoyed our stay, and it was the kid's favorite place in Ireland. Be aware though that the resort is historic, which some would perceive as dated. It's also off the beaten path, with most other dining options some drive away so plan on eating at the hotel a lot. My only other gripe would be that you have to make reservations for the pool, which is kind of a hassle.

    Upsides: great location and facilities & grounds. Nice and very accommodating staff. Many guests…read morewere Irish families which added to the charm. Downsides: it's quite isolated so you can't walk to a local restaurant, pub, cafe etc. Also the majority of the restaurant and bar staff have a very loose grip on English and seem quite ill I formed about the food and drinks like where did the fish come from or what's a good local whiskey. The food itself was also pretty mediocre
