Dingle Benners Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This property is a dream. A full service hotel with a bed and breakfast feel. Beautiful sitting rooms and courtyards throughout. Right in city center everything is walkable with a Centre grocery right up the street and fantastic pubs and restaurants next door and across the street. The staff was warm and helpful. Our stay here only made our trip to Dingle better!"
