I've stayed at the West Cork Hotel 4 different times with tour groups I've hosted and have never experienced such hospitality anywhere else. The owner of the hotel is ever present, personally welcoming people as if they were guests in his own home. He has brought in entertainment for our groups, and has organized several excursions for us to witness... More

I got married here at the end of May, a great hotel. The staff really worked with us to ensure our day went very well. The food was excellent and the day went seamlessly for us. They have a very good wedding planner that will help you in all aspects of your wedding. I cannot speak highly enough.

Great location in Skibereen, right across from the Famine Heritage Center...wonderful food and excellent, friendly service. Don't miss the Root Vegetable Tagine for dinner. The owner, Tim, gave us a talk on the history of the hotel, and a demonstration of road bowling. Can't wait to visit again!

Amazing- five star service and the food was truly better than some of Londons best restaurants! The staff are tentative and always there when needed. The location is surrounded by a short drive to some of the most exquisite views. Great Holiday away

I am writing this review of The West Cork Hotel to highlight my experience. I recently travelled to the hotel with my own with a baby. After booking from Lidl breaks I contacted the hotel in advance to request a suitable room (even though we had an ‘offer’) the hotel obliged and provided us with a wheelchair friendly family room....

We will be back! The staff at the West Cork hotel are amazing. Friendly, accommodating and so helpful. And the food! Breakfast was delicious and our supper most satisfactory. We return from our trip to Skib sated, relaxed and determined to repeat the experience as soon as possible. In fact, we've already booked!
