Fantastic location for strolling in to Kinsale. The little hut on the water is the perfect place to enjoy breakfast or a drink. The room itself is very cosy with heaters and a stove. Would definitely return and will recommend to friends and family

Situated in the heart of the harbour town Kinsale, on Main Street, The Lemon Leaf Cafe Bar & Townhouse offers free WiFi, and features the Lemon Leaf Cafe on the ground floor.

Cute place with cafe below. Beds really comfy. We booked the family room just for the two of us, to get a little extra space as the rooms are small but are described well on the site. Initially, loved the location as it was right in the main street, however at night, this proved to be not so good. If you're a heavy sleeper or have good earplugs, you'll be fine but hubby was kept awake at night by late revellers and then very early start for workman and delivery trucks going about their day. Especially unlucky to strike bin night as well! They all go right past the window. Bathroom was good. Still a great place to stay, just pack those earplugs!

In Kinsale’s centre, this award-winning Georgian townhouse offers individually decorated rooms, a gourmet food store, and a stylish café. Free Wi-Fi and buffet breakfasts are available.

We arrived late in the evening so had no interaction with any staff members. Great location, and easy parking just across the road.

The Old Dispensary in Kinsale provides accommodation with free WiFi, 2.7 km from Dock Beach, 25 km from Cork City Hall and 26 km from Cork Custom House.

It was very good, the only problem was that around 3 am the guest next to our bedroom had a noisy meeting and they woke us up. We could hear everything and it happened the same next morning. I

    A charming boutique hotel with comfy beds, a coffee/tea station (with cookies!), little sitting rooms, and a gracious hostess (Ann). Would most definitely stay here again. Location was perfect - quiet, but in the heart of town.
