The Waterfront Hotel

Exceptionally well-managed hotel, with great attention to detail in the room. Right on the harbour - it can be noisy during the evening, if you have a room at the front of the hotel, but it's not an issue. Kate the owner is a really warm, hospitable host. The food in the restaurant is excellent and the breakfast is top quality. The hotel is accessible for the boats to the islands (no cash machine in Baltimore, so if you need cash, get it in Skibbereen). We'll be back - it's a great spot.

I think this hotel could do with an upgrade. It's a good location, but very tired. And the overwhelming stench of fryer oil was not pleasant. It has potential but I wouldn't return to stay, I would have a drink in the courtyard at the front on a sunny day though, thats lovely. But be warned the drinking finishes quite late if you're sleeping in a harbour facing room. Breakfast extremely basic.

Thank you Kate and Youen for a great 6 nights at your fantastic hotel. What a location. It doesn't get better than The Waterfront. Our three children loved it too. They are ages 7, 9 and 13 yrs old and all had only good things to say about the hotel. A Lovely clean hotel with friendly kind and efficient staff. Gorgeous breakfast and a harbour view superior to any other. Thank you Kate, Youen, Nikki, Helen and all the staff. Jacqueline and Gavin King and children. DUBLIN.

This hotel was just perfect, location was unbeatable, a lovely buzz, decent food, excellent staff and a traditional but great quality breakfast with a view. I went with a friend and we both had to work remotely during the day, the hotel was so accommodating in finding quieter areas for us to work in. Great value in comparison too.
