Cómodo hotel con buen restaurante
Pros:

El hotel es muy céntrico. Puedes llegar andando en cualquier sitio en Kinsale. La habitación también es muy grande y el baño también. El hecho de que tenga un restaurante también es muy cómodo. Además, la comida allí está deliciosa.

Cons:

La calefacción: es central y la apagaron por la noche. Pasamos mucho frío. Hay que decirles en recepción que te dejen la calefacción puesta porque sino puedes tener una respuesta muy desagradable.
Otra cosa que no me gusta de alojamiento es que no tiene parking. Puedes aparcar el coche en la calle, si encuentras sitio. Hay un parking cerca pero es de pago.

Charming hotel and wonderful breakfast
Pros:

The breakfast was fantastic

Cons:

No lift and the carpet causes allergies. Reception closed after 11pm, better to warn guests.

I highly recommend staying at this hotel. Service, location, cleanliness, food - all top notch.
Pros:

General atmosphere. It is an older hotel and it is a gem. Service was exceptional. Breakfast daily was good, Dinner the two times I ate there was fabulous. Loved that the owner interacted with the guests.

Cons:

There wasn't anything I didn't like. Again it's an older hotel. I am a realist.

The manager alone is a reason to go back!
Pros:

The Manager, Anthony is an absolute legend! A very kind, helpful and personable individual who went above and beyond to make my stay really good, even though I was only there for one night. He is a memorable character. In fact, all of the staff were absolutely top class. I also brought friends there for dinner and the food was very good. I will definitely be going back.
