Summary: The wifi was terrible. We could not stay connected for more than 2 minutes and when we mentioned something to the front desk it never did improve
Hilary Sep 22, 2026 10:31:41 PM
Summary: Bed was very comfortable, the bathroom had a good shower and gel was provided. The room was a little dusty and the carpets marked and a cupboard door and drawer didn’t open. However, bottles of water and milk pods were replenished daily and biscuits were often left so you felt welcome. The staff were very helpful in my experience. Breakfast was excellent with varied cereals, seeds, nuts, fresh fruit and yoghurt plus cooked breakfast if required.
Paul Jul 19, 2026 06:24:16 PM
Summary: Great location and views with plenty of parking. Staff were very welcoming, friendly and nothing was to much. Rooms comfortable with hairdryer, fan ,coffee/tea making facilities and water supplied. Quality of the food and drink along with the service was excellent and a lovely menu range for evening and breakfast.

Summary: Mary at reception was very friendly and sorted out a small problem we had (nothing to do with the hotel )We will stay here again when we come back as it is very well situated being in the centre of town.
Kelly Jun 22, 2026 06:16:43 PM
Summary: Booked a super double room with a queen bed, when we checked in we were told they only had 1 room left which had 2 twin beds. The room was SO hot when we walked in we had to leave the room for several hours with 2 fans running to even make it tolerable. The manager was so nice & apologetic, he was the only reason we stayed for the night. The water pressure was basically a dribble, would never stay here again.
Margaret Jun 18, 2026 07:12:55 PM
Summary: This hotel is lovely. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The Italian restaurant has delicious food and the breakfast was great. We would absolutely stay here again.
Jane Jun 1, 2026 08:33:12 PM
Summary: Had a lovely stay here. Room with a view. Staff very friendly. Breakfast each morning cooked to order. Restaurant food excellent. Would stay again.
Daniel May 31, 2026 07:53:00 PM
Summary: Checked in with my partner, asked if we were booked together and then informed apologetically that they’d put us in a double room. This was indeed correct and exactly as we had booked, not the best welcome and I would have expected any confusion to have been approached more considerately. Room was very nice and also clean, surprised to find only 2 towels provided in the bathroom, no hand towels or to put on the floor. Weather was hot and appreciated a fan was provided although it didn’t do much to help.
Patrick May 25, 2026 02:36:56 AM
Summary: A lovely hotel, good food, professional staff, ample car parking during my visit. Very clean comfortable bedroom, I will stay again when in Youghal.
Lisa and Mark McDonnell May 24, 2026 10:26:58 PM
Summary: Amazing stay, helpful staff, beautiful room. Would stay again
