My Wife and I and friends had coffee in the Golf Clubhouse of Trumps International Hotel and Golf resort and it was really nice. The coffee and home made cookies were extremely nice and tasty. We were served by Jack, who was not only nice and friendly but highly efficient too. It was an extremely nice and memorable visit and thank you to Jack, Raf and Mr. Joe Russell (GM) and we look forward to a return visit sooner than later. It was - also - lovely to see all the guests greeting other guests in a positive way.

Dingle Skellig... All the best of our dreams of Ireland

Reviewed By donceil

My husband and I had been looking forward to this trip to Ireland for 2 years, since the pandemic forced cancellation of our original trip, a milestone birthday celebration, scheduled in 2020. During that delay, we imagined the visit becoming the best of our dreams of Ireland . That it was exactly that is fundamentally due to our stay at the Dingle Skellig Hotel. We arrived at the hotel ridiculously early from our flight from JFK to Shannon and were immediately welcomed by Karen who totally surprised us with news that our room was ready. Kirsten and the team had made great efforts to make this welcoming gesture possible. Kirsten then sent up "belated birthday" chocolates to our room. Talk about feeling welcome and taken care of! This warmth, enthusiasm, energy and attention to details seemed to permeate all of the Skellig's staff. Our room was extremely comfortable , feeling both elegant as we watched sunsets over Dingle Bay and the Kerry Hills from our full glass bay window, sipping sparkling water from the refrigerator or wine, and like home away from home with comfortable back supportive furniture (bed, sofa, chairs), and a sparkling fully stocked bath with a dual control rain fall shower (actually better than home! :-) The restaurants were wonderful - they have an excellent kitchen. The dishes were delicious and the service was attentive, friendly and efficient, even when they were managing two weddings over the weekend we were there. Quite impressive. Jurgita, who was hostess in the Coast Guard Restaurant the night we designated as our birthday celebration dinner surprised us by seating us in the "best table in the restaurant" (which it was), bringing our dessert with birthday candles on each, and then graciously taking beautiful pictures of us out on the patio. On another evening Mr. Fitzgerald, the GM, totally surprised us with a complimentary bottle of wine with our dinner. This is a beautiful hotel in a breathtakinly beautiful setting with extremely comfortable rooms and excellent restaurants. But what makes it special most of all are the warm, welcoming, helpful staff. They take everything up a notch with their enthusiasm and unfailing effort to make your stay everything you hope for. We can't thank them enough!

Anniversary weekend

This was our second visit to the Armada Hotel, to celebrate our wedding anniversary. As soon as we registered, we had a wonderful greeting and as we got to our beautiful room we were greeted by a welcoming card, chocolates and Baileys Irish Cream. We would like to express our thanks to Ann and the other ladies on our floor for looking after our requests. They were always present with a smile and a "can we help you". The hotel features, including the bar and restaurants were first class. The view from the breakfast room was superb, and there,. every morning we were greeted and looked after by Patrick who really made us smile. This is a wonderful hotel with first class features, wonderful food and gorgeous views. We thoroughly recommend it, for all occasions SALLY and Wayne

A breath of fresh air for dog owners!

Reviewed By michaelakeating

My partner and I were blown away at how welcoming the staff at Dunmore House Hotel were when we visited West Cork this weekend. Having been recommended the venue as a dog-friendly place to eat, we were welcomed and put completely at ease by the staff. They were great with our dog Joey who was only delighted to get all the attention! The views from the outdoor area were absolutely stunning as they overlook Incheydoney beach. A huge thanks to the hotelier, Carol who had heard that we needed to pop to the shop to get some milk before we headed back to our accommodation and brought us out some to take home! Those small touches are greatly appreciated. The food, service and overall atmosphere were all top class. We look forward to returning on our next trip to West Cork in the near future.

Stayed 4 nights with family. Had a very enjoyable stay. Staff were friendly and very helpful. We opted for sea view rooms which were very pleasant. There was road noise during the day but hardly any noise at night. Our rooms were bright and clean with lovely fluffy towels. Breakfast was very good with a good choice and nothing was too much trouble. We only had dinner one night as we were out and about the other days.

The Ardagh Hotel & Restaurant

Celebrating 40 years of welcoming guests as friends, the Ardagh is now in the third generation of the Bauvet/Berings family. Old fashioned rest, relaxation & the best food Connemara has to offer. One of the last small, family run hotels in Ireland. What was originally a quaint fishing lodge is now the 20 bedrooms of a four star establishment. The Ardagh has been lovingly restored into an unfussy, intimate hotel with individually styled guest rooms. Set on 6 acres of food and wild floral gardens offering both views of Connemara’s land and seascapes.

Sublime stay. A place to return to again and again

Reviewed By frances o

Absolutely superb from the moment we arrived until we left. This was our second stay, having had a wonderful time previously, it is a place that we were very excited to return to. The hotel is beautifully located with very comfortable rooms overlooking Clifden Bay and its magnificent sunsets. Every member of the team are so welcoming and friendly but very professional. The service was fantastic. Dining in the Ardagh is an absolute treat. There is an extensive menu of wonderful local seafood, meats and homegrown vegetables. This is high end dining at its best. Perfectly cooked and presented. The only difference between Ardagh and other fine dining establishments is that the portions are huge! We ate there for 4 nights and our only regret was not tasting everything on the menu. A well chosen and reasonably priced wine list accompanies the amazing food. Cannot wait to return next year. A true treat worth waiting for. Thank you all in the Ardagh
