“This hotel looks to be newly renovated and looks very nice. On a positive note , 99% of the staff are helpful and friendly. The hotel is generally very clean and our bedroom was spotless, housekeeping do a great job. The bar food menu is good but the food is a mixture of delicious and bland. Some meals . lovely others bland. Portions were generally good. There is a 2 euro supplement for half rice and half chip which I've never seen on a menu before and there was very little rice given. Menu was more expensive than other 4 star hotels we have stayed at. The bar glasses need to be checked for cleanliness as twice my.partner was given dirty glass, pint of corrs had a fly in it and pint of guinness had long black hair in it which put him off finishing it or ordering another. We did not complain as we were not after a free pint but the dirty glasses shd not have happened. Breakfast food was good but on one morning we picked up 2 dirty plates that were provided for buffet breakfast and put them aside. The plates were also cold despite sign saying plates may be hot they weren't they were cold. We used the spa it was OK. My.masssge was good and on time but my partners massage was not the full time, we had to settle up the spa bill before we had our treatment, never had that happen before . So recap , bedroom furniture etc good , cleanliness fir bedrooms and halls etc food. Food mixed , dining plates , cutlery unclean at times. Glasses in bar at times unclean. We judge a place like Would we go back and unfortunately because of what we experienced the answer wld be no.”

“We booked a break the bar was table booking only and service very slow to get a drink. Our spa booking the massage lasted only 20min and 3 of the rooms were out of service in the spa very little to do in it. The rooms were fine but the stairs and rooms needed a better clean. Breakfast fab but the whold book a table for the bar and staff igoring you and asking you to move out of a table that was not reserved made me definetly not return. I did notify the hotel but got very little hop just thats the policy when busy especially at Christmas!!!!”

“Driveway on way in is stunning. Ample parking. Pool and gym area well equipped and excellent. Sleep was exceptional except that the fire alarm went off at 4am. It was quickly turned off but I couldn't get back to sleep. Breakfast was excellent but the food in the bar while tasty I thought was expensive. Staff were all excellent.”

“Absolutely gorgeous hotel on the most stunning grounds. Hotel staff are exceptional and did everything to make our stay lovely. I highly recommend pre-booking into the Solas Croí spa and relaxation suites as it topped off our visit perfectly. The food in the Gallery restaurant is a must try too. Cannot recommend this hotel enough!”
Sarah
“Food in bar only okay and overpriced for what it is. Went to the bar for a quiet pint around 10.30 p.m. but there was "entertainment" there: guy with karaoke machine and saxophone shouting songs. Retreated to the lobby where I could still hear shouty guy but also racket of wedding band from hell through open function room doors. Breakfast decent. Staff friendly. Bed comfy. Leisure centre good. Won't be rushing back.”
Kevin

“What a wonderful hotel stay experience we had when we stayed in this lovely hotel. The staff are absolutely outstanding. Our son had his birthday the day we stayed here and upon arrival there was a lovely " Happy birthday" written in chocolate on a plate with fruit and chocolate sweets,which he was thrilled with( I had asked them to do something small for him ) . Then I mentioned it in passing to a lovely waiter, Oisin that the birthday boy could order his brekkie first and didn't the lovely lad bring him out a little biscuit cake with a candle in it and all the staff sang him happy bday. It was such a lovely gesture. The pool is amazing and we had ample time in it. The food was truely scrumptious and other lovely waitress, Franzesca made our evening so special by being so pleasant and supper efficient. Also, there were two weddings on that weekend and we were not left waiting for our food or felt overlooked in any way. Overall , we will return and I will be singing this hotels praises. Thank you to all the staff at the Brandon House Hotel. Please keep up your good work.”

Paul
“Arrived on SUnday 5th for 2Bb + 1 evening meal. 2 adults and a10 yr old and 5 yr old. Staff very professional, friendly, obviously quite busy Easter weekend, family room was small, camp bed for 5 yr old very hard, squeaky beds uncomfortable. However we were meeting other family members so weren't in rooms much anyway. Carvery on Easter Sunday was very busy and in an unusual place given the big crowds. Evening meal included was excellent, from menu choice to service,even better kids went off to the kids camp in the evening so was added bonus. Surprise to note there is no lift which will be difficult for some people. Improvement could be made around price of wine at 35 euro for a half decent Rjoja, hubby had cheeseboard which if it came with a information card about if cheeses were local etc would be a nice touch. Overall enjoyed our stay would go back, deserves 3.5 stars as beds poor, family room very small, staff very good, beautiful surroundings and very near local attractions, Hook, Dunbrody FAmine ship etc.”
Elaine
“Great stay, lovely hotel & very helpful staff”
Ronan
“Family break - really enjoyed our stay - kids (16 and 11) both want to go back again! Only complaints: - too much chlorine in the pool, - booked the restaurant for an evening meal but then found out it only served a 3 course set menu for 28.50 for adults (waitress said the a la carte was not available even though the hotel info pack said a la carte was available). Food was lovely but we would have eaten in the bar or ordered room service instead if we had known this as we only wanted a main course. Note - restaurant also served a kids menu which was good value.”
Genegenie
“Good value for money with excellent pool facilities and breakfast. Rooms a little small but comfortable. Down side was bar was very busy, was very hard to get a table for bar food, had to sit at bar table with uncomfortable stools. All staff very friendly and very good location.”
