A complete rip off from start to finish.
Pros:

Could park right outside.

Cons:

Accommodation is dated, cold and in need of maintenance and/or renewal. i.e. Enamel in bath is chipped and the single radiator in the room is rated for a room approximately a quarter the size. Additional Electric portable heater automatically switches off after an hour.

We telephoned Reception on three occasions but received no answer. We telephoned the 'Emergency' number once and still no answer.

The hotel describes itself in glowing terms as 'luxurious'. It's certainly not. Our stay in the Sheen Falls Lodge in Kenmare on the following night was luxurious and only cost thirty euros more. For 180 Euros per night the Glengarriff Park Hotel is not even 'adequate'.

Functioneel
Pros:

Hotel is gewoon erg oud, personeel ook . Zeer functioneel gedrag met korte bijna snauwende vragen , antwoorden.
Geen gevoel dat je daar welkom bent . Ontbijt gevarieerd en goed , bediening voor onervaren meisjes van geen 15 jaar . Onprofessioneel

Cons:

Comfort , gedrag personeel , prijs kwaliteit verhouding

disappointing and seriously overpriced
Pros:

The hotel is tired and shabby, having been converted , I understood, from housing refugees for pas few years.
There are very few staff. The food is what i would call "canteen" standard and to be avoided. It does not quality for 3 stars in any way.

Cons:

On checking I was never asked if I had enjoyed my stay or if everything was OK.
Too long servicing refugees. I think. Now back to the hotel business...

The hotel exceeded our expectations for a two-night stay.
Pros:

Location was perfect. You walk across the street to catch the ferry to Garinish Island or stroll around Bantry Bay. Staff were friendly and helpful. Special shout out to Ann Marie, who knows everything, including how to find my grandmother’s old neighborhood.

Cons:

Bathrooms could use some updates.
