10.0

Excellent location in the heart of the town. Beside the beautiful River Ilen. And right across the road from The Skibbereen Hertage Centre. The staff where lovely and welcoming from the bar staff to the night porter. The hotels interior lovely with great pictures throughout.

The hotel is right as you come into the town it could do with a lick of paint and that beautiful bridge belonging to the hotel is starting to look like its falling apart its so nice it would be ashame if it got beyond repair. The steel balcony that runs along the front of the hotel is beautiful but again its going like the bridge because its unloved. It would be ashame to loose these beautiful historic features.

Lovely experience. Wad a 2 night stay in Skibbereen. Staff were so friendly and welcoming. The bar food was delicious and the lovely Joan made the best Irish coffee I've had in decades! Will definitely be back for another one, or two!
