Top Ballinskelligs Hotel Reviews

Seaview Heights

8/10 Good

"Easy check in. The room was clean and big. The bathroom was large and clean! The bed was a little hard for my liking. Nice hot breakfast and beautiful breakfast hostess!"

Seagull Cottage B&B

10/10 Excellent

"The house is newer, clean and close to Skellig micheal tours as well as the cliffs of Kerry. Self check in easy with clear instructions. Breakfast is available, but we did not choose to add it. Make sure you make reservations early for the tour but you don’t need one for the cliffs. Beautiful scenery!"

The Waterfront

10/10 Excellent

"Cozy, but clean rooms. Friendly, helpful staff. Great location. View of harbor."

Arden House

10/10 Excellent

"Newly remodeled property- very clean! Staff was also very welcoming and helpful:)"

The Royal Valentia Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Love this hotel. Everything about it is beautiful; from the furniture, to the location, and the staff!"

Barr na Sraide Inn

8/10 Good

"This hotel was cute, welcoming, and clean! There is a free parking lot behind the hotel, which was so convenient. Just be aware - the entrance to it is quite narrow! The staff were welcoming and friendly and we really liked our room - it was nice, comfortable, and the water pressure in the shower was fantastic! One thing to note - when we booked this hotel, part of the reason we chose it was because on Expedia it indicated that they had air conditioning. That is not the case. There was a small fan in the room, but no a/c. It was quite warm out, so the room was a bit warmer than we would have liked."

Base Accommodation Dingle

10/10 Excellent

"La location est parfaite"

Dingle Skellig Hotel & Peninsula Spa

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was the relaxing stopover we needed on our wild Atlantic way trip. Each hotel guest gets one hour complimentary access to the spa facilities. There’s also a steam room & hot tub by the pool. The spa staff squeezed us in last minute, which we greatly appreciated! The newly renovated rooms are very comfortable - we all had a great nights sleep. The breakfast was included (even though it said we’d have to pay at the property on Expedia). I don’t normal leave reviews but this place should absolutely be rated higher!"

Milltown House

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were lovely & polite , noting was too much .. Met at the door by 2 absolutely stunning & extremely friendly Irish Wolfhounds , beautiful dogs .. View amazing , a few minutes walk to the centre of dingle / Port .. Highly recommended .."
