    90% perfect but let down by above items.

    • Superior Double Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    Room was very cold until we found heating had not been turned on prior to our arrival - took a while to find hidden radiator valve! Having sorted that, the room was very comfortable. We were not aware the restaurant would be closed on our second day - as a result we had dinner in the bar. Very cramped, different table/chair/bench heights made it very uncomfortable. We asked if we could take our meal to the lounge (which as empty but advised this was not possible. Water available throughout the hotel but not in the room?

    Location was perfect. Staff could not have been more cheerful and helpful. Breakfasts were exceptional. Dinner in the dining room was excellent, made more so by ability to mix and match between bar menu and a la carte menu.

    Unfortunately the dinner at the bar was below mediocre. Even though they really focus on having "Michelin" quality food, what I got at the bar for that price was definitely nowhere near higher quality. Maybe because it was off season, but unfortunately that was my impression.

    Beautiful hotel, perfect location (astonishing view on the Atlantic), super friendly staff (even got a free upgrade), plenty of parking available.

    That we had to leave. We should have come for longer than 2 nights!

    Everything was perfect. Staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The food was exceptional. Breakfast was a highlight! So thrilled we could bring our dog with us. Made our stay even more enjoyable. Lots of walks close by. We'll definitely be back!

    I was on a return visit and love going back. The contribution of the staff to the excellent standard of customer service in Dunmore is the benchmark for other hotels. The hotel is beautifully furnished and is so comfortable. We had a room overlooking the sea - comfy bed and excellent shower. The food is locally sourced, of excellent quality and nicely cooked. I really cant say a bad word about this hotel. I look forward to my next visit to Clonakilty and Dunmore House.
