"Four of us (all adults) stayed here for a week in June/July and it was a very special experience. Stephanie's renovation and design work on the property is impressive, and with the exception of a full-sized oven and laundry facilities, you have everything you need there to be comfortable. The castle is beautifully situated high above Roaringwater Bay, and it's an easy drive to all sorts of wonderful West Cork sites. The stairs are tricky, so it's not really a place for kids or anyone with...

Ballyseede Castle

10/10 Excellent
Our room was actually in the Castle Lodge, about 200 yards before you reached the Castle. The grounds were terrific, and we were met by the "welcoming committee" (namely, 3 of the 4 castle dogs: Higgins, Molly/Maggie, and Einstein).
Our room (really a suite) was huge - about 40'by 32', including a sitting room. The bed was an extra large 4-poster canopy bed. The breakfast was served in the castle and it was delicious.

Everything was top notch from the newly finished rooms to the delicious breakfast. The hotel is situated halfway between the town and the park entrance, 2 km from each. There is a lovely walk from the hotel to the stately gardens through woodlands along the lake.

Our hotel was amazing. From the valet parking to the front desk to the housekeepers. Everyone was amazing and helpful. The grounds were outstanding and well kept. The pool and leisure center was a great place to visit. Breakfast was delightful. They say it gets busy between 9-10 and it is. But go earlier or set proper expectations.

10/10 Excellent
This is an amazing hotel! We only paid $150 per night and received treatment which far exceeded the price. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly, the spa is beautiful, and the FREE breakfast feels like it should cost at least $30/person-- hot food like pancakes, eggs, bacon, etc, smoothies, fruits, cereals, cheeses... seriously mouthwatering. The restaurant the Yew Tree is also very nice and serves delicious food with great service. The hotel itself is located within beautiful Killarney...
