The West Cork Hotel

The West Cork Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"The West Cork Hotel is situated in an idyllic site beside the River Lee. It is also very close to the main townsite. The hotel boasts a complimentary breakfast which was as good as any I’ve had in Ireland. The bar/pub/restaurant was superb and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Skibberreen is a hidden gem in West Cork, and if you ever chose to travel there, The West Cork hotel is the place to stay."

10/10 Excellent
"The service was excellent. We had dinner at breakfast and the staff were brilliant. Particularly loved the ladies that looked after us at breakfast. The room was clean and very comfortable. The decor is a little tired in places but did not distract from a very pleasant one night stay. Definitely recommend."
