Good hotel! The hotel is located nearby bus station and is very easily accessible to the rest of the town. I'd stay here again for the convenience of location. There's a rather loud bar that does live music right next to it, so it wasn't always the quietest.

Our room was on the third floor and no elevators which was tricky for big suitcase. the guest room was a bit tight, but the bed was very comfortable. the furniture was too big for the room.

You can't beat the location. And an added surprise was the live music Friday night in the lobby bar.... so much fun.

Great central location. Very nice room. Only notes would be for older or disabled folks, there is no elevator ( lift ), and on a Saturday night, rightfully the town was quite lively and music thumping until midnight. Worked great for us, but not a quiet / easily accessible room. Staff was great and again, could not be more centrally located. We got very lucky with a parking spot right across the street. €1.50 per hour ( 2 hour max ) until 18:00 and then free all day Sunday.

Very clean and beautiful hotel. But, be aware there are no elevators or Air Conditioning. Our room was beautiful and had a little family room too. But it was a bit hot. They had 3 fans and that took off the edge. If you are coming with many suitcases, this may not be a good fit. Was very close to everything . Great location Kind staff. The breakfast was very good. The front desk said that they will have e AC next year.

Room and staff were lovely! Location is right in the center of town and has an amazing restaurant. Beware, bring earplugs as the walls are paper thin. Would definitely stay again, but with the noise in mind.

Excellent breakfast choices and so tasty. The staff were very friendly and attentive in all departments.A bit noisy from outside but that was to be expected when people are enjoying themselves. All in all I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

My second visit to Kinsale and Blue Haven. Hotel is aging and could use a facelift. The adjoining restaurant and lounge is terrific however as is the hospitality therein. The folks at reception on the other hand are less than hospitable.

The rooms were clean and well maintained. It was impressive they had Dyson dryers in the rooms: bathrooms were nice and the shower/tub combination was appreciated. The only negative was there is no elevator.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Could use a little refresh which I believe is in the works. The walls and ceilings are thin so we could clearly hear others talking and being romantic in their rooms but the windows kept the street noise at bay. We also had some unfortunate hallmates who were shouting and laughing in their room at 2:00 a.m. and we couldn't get in touch with any staff to quiet them. The location is right in the heart so very walkable to restaurants, pubs etc.

Always a lovely stay, right in the centre of town. I was up in one of the single rooms which are like sweat boxes given the heatwave, but you can’t blame the hotel for that!
