This hotel was in a wonderful location right on the harbor in Kinsale. However, it is a very old hotel and was best described as average. The service was acceptable but not exceptional, and the bright spot was the location. It was close to many local pubs and restaurants so walking to those was very easy. This review is a... More

The location of this hotel is wonderful -- overlooking the harbor, BUT, be aware of the following: (1) there is no a/c and depending upon the time of your trip, this can be uncomfortable; (2) some of the rooms overlook an alley; (3) there is only one small, old elevator which can become an issue if there are a number...

We arrived at 12noon in a party of 21people and although check-in wasnt until 2pm they managed to fit in most of the party by 1pm. We went for the Jazz festival so the room wasnt that important - it was on the whole clean. There were area's for obvious improvement and modernisation. You had mold/damp on windows and some... More

The hotel is probably the best location in the town. We stayed there twice before over 5 years ago. it was a fair price we thought and it also included breakfast. The first sign that there was an issue is the sign for Actons is off colour and needs a refurb. Our room had clean crisp linen but that was... More

I have had a few business trips to the Cork area recently and I thought that instead of staying in the city I'd try a seaside stay, and booked this hotel as one of the few with space remaining in the town over the high holiday season. The reception experience was professional and OK, nothing more. The room was nice... More

My husband & I stayed at Actons Hotel for our wedding anniversary. This is not a cheap hotel, but we wanted a nice view and this one, being by the harbour, provided this. The staff was OK. The room was OK. The biggest problem is the fact that this hotel seems to value the wedding business more than other guests.... More

We were planning to stay in Cork; but heard of this postcard picture town on the water and decided to give it a go. We were not at all disappointed as we had a wonderful time and stayed two nights. The hotel has a nice large free parking lot for parking your car. Everything worth seeing is within walking distance... More
