8/10 Good
"Misty Bay is set on a gorgeous piece of property. It is very clean and well maintained. We stayed 3 nights. We were quite busy seeing the sights of the Ring, Dingle and the whole area so we were not there much. It was a bit further out than we thought. Nice kitchenette to use but we were very disappointed that the washer and dryer were not for guest use. Maybe we missed that in the Expedia write up but though pictured it is not available. Lovely setting though."

"All delightful - especially the staff However the breakfast and dinner were disappointing. The breakfast buffet was poor - and the à la carte was limited . Considering the location surprising that there no fish on offer -2 varieties of irish breakfast? Why no local produce ? The dinner was mediocre and overpriced. It's such a shame as the rest of the hotel was excellent ."

Sheen Falls Lodge

Sheen Falls Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"Sheen Falls Lodge is a beautiful property, with nice amenities. Unfortunately, we were unable to take advantage of the fishing opportunity as it was fully booked. We were able to take a horse back ride, but I found it rather expensive, especially considering the price we paid for the room. The restaurant service was lacking. We asked for three wines before finding one they had in stock - this was in the Stable restaurant and the overall experience there caused us to cancel our reservation for the following night in the hotel restaurant. Overall experience left me sad that this beautiful property is not being managed better for the price one pays."

"Very clean room and helpful staff. Small room and bathroom with not enough room to place our large suitcase or bathroom potions. We did choose a cozy room at an economical price but our friends also commented on their cruise-sized bathroom. Another shelf for toiletries would’ve been helpful and a suitcase stand instead of a chair. Lobby and bar area are lovely and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again."
