Fodor's Expert Review Glengarriff Park Hotel
Village Center, Glengarriff, Co. Cork, Ireland
Smack-dab in the middle of the scenic and busy village of Glengarriff, this small, family-run hotel is an excellent base for touring, with some great scenic walks on the doorstep, and sits alongside its sister establishments MacCarthy's Bar and the Park Bistro. The light-filled reception area, with its high ceiling and imposing wooden staircase, sets the tone for two stories of generous-size bedrooms and bathrooms, a legacy of the boom years when the original B&B was rebuilt to hotel specifications. The rooms are stylish, with large wooden headboards, color-themed walls and carpets, and luxurious throws and cushions.
PROS
- great value
- knowledgeable local staff
- handy one-stop shop for bed, food, and drink
- popular destination for Irish people on short breaks
CONS
- views from bedrooms are disappointing
- in high season the village is busy with tourists and tour buses en route to Killarney and the Ring of Kerry
