This room was simply amazing. Modern, yet welcoming. We had our own private courtyard with lovely views. Communication with them was spot on and the check-in was a breeze. When we get back to Kinsale, this will again be our place to stay!

It was a clean place but some aspects were frustrating. It’s essentially a B&B , but with no breakfast. There was no clear reception area so it was rough to figure it out with wind and rain. There was no ac and the blankets they provided were enough to get through an ice storm. I was hot and uncomfortable all night long. It was clean and a great location , but definitely not worth the price. You’re better off at a real hotel

Great overnigh stay
It was amazing. The amenities were very nice. Parking could have been more straight forward as we had to park at the "no overnight parking" lot which turned out to be fine to overnighr park

The Glen Quarter Kinsale is a very modern studio accommodation in the old part of Kinsale, very close to everything. The staff were great to talk to and told of great places to visit around the town.

This was a wonderful place to stay with a beautiful room and fantastic shower. Very helpful owner. The only thing that one should know is that it doesn’t have a front desk; so you need to call the owner’s phone number on arrival. We called the telephone number, and we were met at the front door in about one minute.

Very unique and charming room. Very quiet. Not a traditional hotel with staff so you have to figure things out yourself ( ie how the coffee maker works) but very good value.
