Amazing location steps from Blarney Castle gives you the perfect Irish experience.
Pros:

The Blarney Castle Hotel is the PERFECT location to experience Blarney Castle and the town! It could not have been a better location or experience. The people and the bar energy and local people were AMAZING. This hotel truly made the trip to Blarney Castle worthwhile and all the walkability was perfect.

Cons:

We were there during a heat wave and I know this is unusual but with the weather changing I do think they should invest in some portable AC units to help out the people who are used to having AC. A Portable 6,500 BTU unit with window venting would have been MUCH appreciated.

it's location (2 min walk) to blarney castle is it's USP
Pros:

nice spacious (but hot) room and it was within 2 minutes walk to the castle grounds which proved to be a real bonus after spending a long day exploring the castle and it's grounds. Staff at the hotel were welcoming and attentive throughout our stay. Our room on the top floor (I note that our bags were carried up to our room on arrival) it was well kitted out with the usual tea making facilities and plenty of areas for luggage etc good sized bed . We did visit during a mini heatwave and found the room very warm (even with the fan provided) if you're used to air con rooms then unfortunately blarney castle is not for you. we had a pleasant meal in the bar area and breakfast on the morning before leaving, breakfast proved to be limited to cooked items except a baked scone (which we found a bit strange for a breakfast offer) again if you're seeking a continental style breakfast look elsewhere. The cooked breakfast was served hot and was tasty

Cons:

the heat and lack of air con
the lack of choice towards a continental style breakfast offer (even some yogurt and fruit would have sufficed)
