Stayed At Arnolds for the weekend. Got a large double room with sea view and large bathroom. Flat screen TV in the room with all RTE/BBC channels - the TV in the bar has Sky sports channels. The quality of the food was excellent and there is a choice of eating in the formal dining room or the bar/bistro area.... More

We had a wonderful meal in their restaurant and then enjoyed traditional Irish music in their bar. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. We did have a leak in our bedroom in the due to a rainstorm in the middle of the night and the staff did offer us another room. More

Spent five days at Arnolds Hotel in late September while hill-walking in area. Very nice family run hotel. Good food and nice large room. But the strength of this hotel is the quality of the staff. Thank you Laura for the research on bus schedules and thank you to the wait staff for the extra touches on our anniversary dinner. More

We spent a week at Arnold's Hotel riding horses, eating good food, and drinking cold pints. The staff was terrific. The owners were friendly and ever present. The weather even cooperated to make for one fantastic vacation. The rooms are a bit dated and my husband missed his sports television channels, but I thouroughly enjoyed the bit of a step... More

This hotel should provide personal safes in every room. We stayed 2 nights, and €200 that had been left hidden in a case in the wardrobe disappeared while out golfing. This was when the room was being cleaned. The incident was reported to the Garda (police). No apology from the manager / owner. Staff were not questioned as "all our... More

Food excellent in bar - had a little while to wait but tasty when it came. Breakfast was excellent, good choice, variety and very helpful , caring and attentive staff. Fire in reception... More

This hotel has a lot going for it. A great location overlooking the bay and all staff pleasant and helpful. An open fire in the lobby is very welcoming. Our room at the back of the hotel was quiet. Breakfasts were outstanding with fresh fruit and freshly cooked Irish breakfasts. We enjoyed a quiz night in the bar where they... More
