We stayed here for 3 nights on a business trip. Located 5-7 minutes walk from the town centre (longer going back as its uphill!) we had a very pleasant stay. Rooms are bright and modern with attractive decor and furnishings. Breakfast was excellent and staff were friendly and very helpful. This is a modern purpose built hotel, so no period charm or views, but a convenient and peaceful location which is not to be sniffed at, as the centre can be quite noisy on Fridays and Saturdays. Highly recommended and reasonably priced.

The accommodation was spotlessly clean,the bed was large and comfortable, breakfast was delicious and the coffee was top notch. Yet I won't be back. My husband reckoned it was like staying in a dentist's waiting room, it seemed almost the antithesis of the quaintness of Kinsale. It was expensive too. However it is obviously very popular,and I suppose deservedly so.I prefer a little more character and charm though.

I stayed here for two nights and would highly recommend it. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious - best french toast I've had for years! The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. The walls are not thick and you can hear when those in the rooms on either side are using the showers but it's not noisy by any means. The guesthouse is located in Kinsale and it is a very short walk into the centre of the town and to the harbour - maybe 5 minutes. The staff were extremely helpful and when a taxi they had booked did not turn up (not their fault at all but do not use Kinsale cabs) they did what they could. I would definitely stay here again.

We stayed 2 nights in Kinsale and completely enjoyed the Blindgate House. Maeve was a perfect host and gave us a lot of suggestions on our time in Kinsale. Blindgate is updated, clean and very spacious. Breakfast was top notch. Location was a short walk from downtown up the hill which is okay for most but could cause a problem for anyone who have difficulty walking. I would not hesitate staying again if we ever make it back to Kinsale.
