Clonakilty Park Hotel

Very clean with great value for money. Breakfast & lunch were both very nice too.

We had acroom with a patio. Multiple cigarette hutts left in orange on patio.

We recently stayed at the Clonakilty Park Hotel for two nights to celebrate our daughter's second birthday, and I honestly cannot speak highly enough of our experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel incredibly welcome. Our daughter was delighted to receive a colouring book and crayons on arrival, and the reception team even gave her a complimentary teddy bear for her birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch that immediately made her feel special. Our room was huge, spotless, and exceptionally comfortable. One of our favourite features was the spacious terrace, complete with a table and chairs, where we could sit out and relax. It was a lovely addition that really enhanced our stay. The facilities for children are absolutely fantastic. Our daughter had the best time swimming in the pool, playing in the soft play area, and exploring the wonderful outdoor playground. There was always something for her to do, which made the trip so enjoyable and stress-free for us as parents. The food was outstanding throughout our stay, and every member of staff we encountered went above and beyond to make our visit memorable. The highlight of the trip was when the staff brought out my daughter's birthday cake and sang Happy Birthday to her. It was such a special and heartfelt moment that meant so much to our family and is a memory we will cherish for years to come. What really stood out was the genuine warmth and kindness shown by every member of the team. Nothing seemed like too much trouble, and it was clear that they truly care about their guests and go the extra mile to make every stay special. This was genuinely one of the best family breaks we have ever had. The attention to detail, exceptional service, fantastic facilities, amazing food, and welcoming atmosphere were second to none. I honestly cannot find a single fault with our stay. We loved every minute of it and are already looking forward to booking our return trip in the near future. A huge thank you to everyone at the Clonakilty Park Hotel for helping make our daughter's second birthday so magical and memorable.

Firstly, I have to say that the rooms themselves are good quality. The family room is a great example of its type, with quality bunk beds, comfortable double bed, modern bathroom and we had a terrace that caught the afternoon sun. Staff are also professional and helpful. Buffet breakfast also covers all the bases. But basically, we really weren't feeling it here. We had just come from Parknasilla in Kerry which we loved and is a different quality of hotel to this one, so by comparison this felt a bit of a let-down. Also, it is very much dominated by young kids - which I understand as it caters for them very well. I think our kids are possibly a bit old for this place now - there is the teen room with some free arcade machines though the games are all from the 90s so only held their interest so long. The other items like the pool table are extra charge, but basically the room isn't that nice to hang out in. The Activity Centre is geared for older kids but outside of local school holidays is only open at weekends so wasn't an option for most of our stay. The swimming pool was ok though a bit tired. For younger kids there is the indoor jungle gym, the outdoor pirate ship playground, the kids buffet at dinner with a range of options (not sure if this is every night), the evening kids disco aimed at young children etc. The location is uninspiring - basically in a business or light industrial park. Its about 15 minute walk into the centre of town but much of it along a busy road (though there is a good quality playground and exercise area on the way). If I was doing this again, I'd look to stay on the coast.

Clean, comfy and good facilities

Nothing! All good
