A nice time
Pros:

While we had a lovely time, it is not at the standard of other 5star hotels. No concierge to bring in luggage or meet you at the door. The receptionists don’t give you a full run down on the hotel that you usually get. Rooms are fine but they are more of a 4 star standard. The service in the bar for lunch was just lacking that slickness of a 5 star hotel. There are areas that do require a little upkeep & freshening up. The dinner in the restaurant was good and the waitress was a lovely woman, very personable. Breakfast was good too, same lady served us and again was lovely. It’s not somewhere to go if you’re looking for pure luxury but facilities are the stand out of this hotel, so much to do and avail of.

Magnificent location: fabulous spa. Elsewhere needs a bit more thought and care.
Pros:

Location was magnificent

Cons:

The bedrooms furniture was tired - with torn pieces of card as draw liners. The day beds in the common area are too low to look out at the magnificent views and food was mediocre

Last minute high end 1 night stay
Pros:

This is a pricey but fabulous hotel in a great location, we wished we could have stayed longer to make better use of the facilities. We had drinks, dinner and breakfast at the hotel, the restaurant and bar were lovely.
The thermal suite, and infinity pool overlooking the bay were blissful. We went on a walk around the woods before we left - the mapped and marked ways were quiet and we were lucky with the weather.

Cons:

We couldn't use the pool in the evening as it was taken over by teenagers playing games. There was no easy link to Sneem, if we had wanted to go into the town for food or drinks in the evening.
