“fun and friendly stay:)”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 August 2011

we where staying in the hotel for a stag...on arrival check in was quick and informative-we got all information about breakfast,free entry for residents in the nightclub,best places to go for food and if we needed anything to come to reception at any time.
we were not even a 5minute walk from the main street of dingle. Our rooms were a nice size, clean and comfortable all were en-suite. we got to use the hillgrove free shuttle bus on our way back to hotel that night. it was just very convienent to stay there as its the only club in Dingle and it was a stones throw from our rooms.
Breakfast was very good on the Sunday morning and we didnt have to check out till 12. The staff all threw the hotel were lovely-reception, bar,management and breakfast, all very helpful and friendly and helped us in anyway they could.
we realy enjoyed our stay in the hillgrove and would go back again all we need is an excuse.

“Be aware of what's in store”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2011

This is a Niteclub with accomodation. Stag and Hen nights are all that should consider this place, seriously! Tried to avoid touching the carpet due to stains and smell. Beds are old and you sink into the mattress.
It's very expensive at €35 each and we were in a quad room.
Not a place retreat for a nice weekend or a relaxed visit.
Definately only for Hen and Stag parties where you're happy to stay in the residents bar.
Only good thing is that it gives you free entry to the Niteclub!

“Old, Dark and Damp”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 March 2011

people found this review helpful

I think the hotel was just added on to help with the pub licence for the property, stayed here for one night, we came to watch a gig at the night club, staff werent particularly helpful and in general they were hard to find. The hotel is dated and damp, Not too damp but you can get a slight smell of it in the rooms. Beds were comfy enough. Fine if going to Dingle to party or just for one night.

“Stag proof...;-)”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2010

we stayed here for a stag party and i must say for 35 euro a night with breakfast and free entry to night club on sat night...it was great value...seriously i was worried from reading some of the reviews on this...but to be honest we had a great time the rooms are fine and were clean it was perfect for what we payed and is perfect for 30 lads that just want to have the craic...i would not stay here if i was with a girlfirend but for the likes of a stag party its ideal...Club was great too..Thumbs up from me..

“Look no further - The only place for a stag party”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 May 2010

Can’t praise this place enough! After a full week of trying to get accommodation in Dingle I thankfully eventually came across the Hillgrove. Be warned --- accommodation providers (particularly guesthouses and holiday homes) don’t like stags. They must have been stung in the past as some places even hung up when they heard it was a stag! This place on the other hand is made for them. Extremely friendly service, fantastic breakfast, power showers and single up to quadruple rooms. As with all stags there was a lot of changing of room types and numbers and the staff and owner could not have been more accommodating. Staying there also means you get free entry to the nightclub (€10) which is hopping on a Saturday night… nearly a thousand people the night we were there. It’s very convenient to town too but if it’s raining there is a complimentary shuttle bus to get you back at night. The barman even dropped us in the first night which was very decent of him…

As for activities we went surfing with Kingdom Waves at Inch and Tom the instructor was class. Had us all standing within 2 hours which is some achievement. The next day we went to PlayatHeight which is a few miles outside the town for rock climbing, high ropes and a type of bungee. Great value and again the staff were excellent. Highly recommend them…
