The hotel is really nice - old-world, but well-kept. The room is great too. Clean, well-equiped bathroom. Comfortable. There’s parking, working WIFI, a great bar downstairs, well-priced food, breakfast was included in the price, friendly hosts and staff, my favourite beer was metres from my room, and a dirty great castle just over the way. Many locals frequent the hotel,... More

I recently stayed for 4 nights at the Blarney Castle Hotel. It is a small, family run business right on the Green with a very atmospheric bar and old-fashioned feeling to it in the best sense. Very friendly owners and staff and well-appointed rooms with very comfy beds. Nothing was too much trouble and I can only say that it... More
