Oriel House in Ballincollig is in a perfect location. very near Kinsale, Charles Fort and Blarney Castle.
Rooms were nice a spacious, clean but could maybe do with a little revamp. I was surprised how quiet the noise level was especially as there was a function on.
Staff lovely and friendly. Food delicious, at breakfast we had the best rashers we ate in a long time.
I would stay here again.

Fabulous hotel with amazing staff, all friendly & hardworking. We had evening meal included in our rate & it was gorgeous, restaurant staff swopped my dessert choice for a cheese board instead without a quibble. Receptionist was lovely as well, I rang beforehand & explained I'd back surgery in November & didn't want a shower inside bath tub & she gave us a perfect room. I really liked this hotel & definately plan on returning.

I arrived at the Oriel hotel at 245 on the 19th of April as we were to early to check in we decided to get something to eat. So we got the carvery lunch while getting it we found the chef to be very unpleasant and when we asked for some extra mash he gave us a look that made us feel very uncomfortable. At any other time with getting this treatment I would refuse the food but we didn't cause a scene as my in laws were with us and I've only learned when we got back that he wasn't very nice to them either. This was a very bad start to our break. The other problem I found was that there a very noisey fan in our room and this came on at 645 each morning. Other than these 2 experiences I found the hotel and staff a very nice place to stay

Most of my stay was very enjoyable. The staff were very friendly and the food was excellent. However on the Saturday night there were small children in the restaurant doing cart wheels around the floor at 10pm which spoilt the dinner for us. I did complain but received only a token apology. I am giving 3 stars because of my experience in the restaurant otherwise it would have been 4

My friend & I stayed here for two nights & were very disappointed with the food and service. We stayed there last year & it was fine but not any more. The hot breakfast was served on cold plates. The kippers were served warm on top with cold spots on the bottom. Porridge was watery. Service for food in the bar was very poor left waiting for long periods. A glass of wine was served using a measure which I had never seen used anywhere. My friends room was cold & she was unable to have a shower. Definitely wont be back.

booked a double room for myself and fiancé, got a room with 2 single beds pushed together,which meant we could not sleep near to each other due to the ridge in the middle of the 2 single beds. Straight away our getaway became less romantic. that afternoon @ 4.30pm we went had food in the hotel bar and our waiter was in no way friendly, helpful or bothered about us or in fact any customer he served. The food was we received was tasteless of tiny portions, however the barman who took our bill payment very kindly offered to give us a reduction even though we hadn't complained, merely replied with honesty when asked if we enjoyed our food. We were so hungry after travelling and poor bar food that we had to go else where to eat. The worst part of all was the' Constant LOUD noise' from 10.30pm - 8am coming from an inspection point in the room. when we opened our window to have fresh air during the night, we were met with another constant LOUD noise the fans from the restaurant/bar. This gave us a bad headache and sleepless night, and put us in a foul mood with each other! regretfully we waited until check out to give our disappointed feed back. The excuse we were given was that the room we were given was in the old part of the hotel!!!!!!! Which quite frankly is a pathetic excuse! it seemed as though they gave us the most inadequate room available! We received an apology from the manager but that was the only gesture received, we paid in full and suggested they sort out that room for future guests if they really had to use it! We had a stressful stay @ this hotel and wasted journey as well as money wasted. Such a let down as we assumed the accommodation would match the beautiful lobby entrance. Maybe rooms in the new part of hotel would be better but don't forget to specify you would like an actual double bed if you and your partner are booking. very poor experience here. I hope other customers will not be treated in such a bad way!

Leisure centre is excellent. Ballincollig itself is a lovely area, it has something for everyone & plenty to do for children. We will definitely return & highly recommend this hotel. Top class break for an affordable price.

Really beautiful hotel in the stunning town of Ballincollig. Rooms were really spacious, very clean and very modern. Bathrooms were beautiful and lovely bath with seperate shower. Room had all the mod cons including, lovely little choc chip cookies with the tea/coffee and a few bottles of water. The pool, jacuzzi, steam room and sauna were fantastic. We will definately be coming back with the kids. Hotel is in a great location to the town (within walking distance). The hotel also has a luxury spa, that offer special deals, unfortunately you will have to book in advance, but the treatments all look lovely and reasonably priced.

the hotel we found was very nice, there was a couple of things with the room 1. my wife found the room a little chilly in the night, 2. we found it a little unusual that their was no phone in the room, we had dinner in the bar on Friday evening, my wife is not a big eater and asked for a half portion the lad that served us just said no that cant be done instead of going and asking the chef, i had the steak i was a little taken back when it was served as their was very little on the plate for the price we paid, other than that i would recommend this hotel the facilities were very good.it was ideal what we were looking for just a total chill out.

Stayed here for one night as a birthday treat. Great location, very convenient. Excellent swimming pool and leisure centre. Spacious room and bathroom. Although there was a wedding in the hotel that night, didn't experience any noise. Great variety at breakfast, self-service. I would return and highly recommend this hotel to couples or families. The only negative comment I have, is that the reception staff could be more friendly. Thanks for a great weekend.

Enjoyed our stay at the hotel, room was fine no issues clean with lots of space, would have preferred 2 single beds for the kids, but got one 5 foot, it was fine but could hear the comment move over to your side..pool was very good and food was enjoyable, kids really liked the food. Kids club worked well, man and dad got a walk and a pint and kids got some space..all in all good modern hotel in nice location...P.S. hotel should look at aircon it didnt work but fan was in room before we arrived.

We stayed one night in the Oriel and could not really fault it. The breakfast was nice. Dinner was lovely.The staff were very accomodating and pool was well kept. The only complaint was the heat in the room was intensive. The weather was hot though but with underfloor heating in the bathroom it was stifling. We would return tho. Good value break/

We had a nice visit to cork, 2 adults & 2 children over St Patricks weekend. Room was nice size and well laid out. Pool was great and kids really enjoyed time spent there. Breakfast was good with nice selection. Dinner was not served in main restaurant but in annex beside lounge area. Was a bit dissapointed with that(setting), but food was excellant, and staff were very friendly. I think they did this to cater for crowd on St Patricks. Nice location for visit into city center and also surronding area. We did trip to Bunrathy which was great. Some nice places to eat in local town, 'Banna' Thai restuarant was great.

My daughter and I recently stayed at the Oriel House Hotel and on arrival found the room to be comfortable. However, on closer inspection over the course of the evening we found the menu offered to be very limited and so had to eat out in Ballincollig instead. The carpets in the hotel were patched with tape in various common areas and breakfast the next morning saw a shortage of bacon and egg. All in all I would not be staying at this hotel again and was very disappointed in our stay at the FOUR STAR?? hotel I would rate this hotel as a 2 star.

Ballincollig is a lovely area and just a short walk to shops and cafes. Pool was nice. The travel cot in the changing rooms was a great idea for when you have a little one with you. Kid's pool was perfect temperature. Had dinner in restaurant and breakfast. Portions were good size.
