Hotel was a quaint older building. Lots of charm and character, clean, good location -- but the mattress felt as old as the place and I did not get good sleep. When paying a boutique hotel price, I expect to have a comfortable, modern bed.

Great location - right in the center of town. The building is very old and well maintained however the windows didn’t fully open or close so noise and cooling were hard to manage. The bath was very modern for such an old building.

Strongly not recommended
We were very concerned about our stay and the conditions of the hotel. The door handle would not work properly and made it extremely difficult to get in and out of the room. The handle spun around, but didn’t engage and open and shut the door. There was mold in our room which can be seen in the picture attached. We attempted to find hotel staff to advise but could not find a staff at the reception. Upon checking our accounts we noticed that we were overcharged. I have written to the hotel twice already and have had no response. I generally do not like to leave bad reviews, but I felt that this was necessary given the above. I definitely would not recommend this hotel.
Mold on the hotel room wall.

The room was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The property’s location was convenient and central to things I wanted to do and see. The staff were helpful. I was a bit uncomfortable with the sag in the floor. It creaked and I had to wonder how well supported the floor was underneath.

Maria was amazing. Our room wasn’t ready so she upgraded us to a nicer one! She heard me say I was flying out before breakfast so she wrapped one up, bagged it and brought it to my room an hour after checking in. Top tier service. So friendly, great recommendations, charming atmosphere, wonderfully located. Will come back.

Went to blue haven to check in at old bank house as instructed. They said they tried to contact me that we couldn’t stay there due to a maintenance issue and had to stay at blue haven. No compensation. Firstly I’ve had endless messages advertising so I don’t believe they couldn’t contact me. They also had my email and number to leave voicemail. Paid $30eu pp for the world’s smallest breakfast. Madness. Wouldn’t return. Bags of laundry in the hall for the entire stay too. Dingy room. Disappointed.

Overnight Stay
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Old Bank House in Kinsale. The charming atmosphere, historic ambiance, and impeccable service made for a delightful experience. While the TV reception was subpar, the overall warmth and character of the place more than compensated for it. I would gladly return for the unique charm and excellent hospitality.

Wonderful little bespoke hotel
Lovely boutique hotel right in the centre of Kinsale. Beautiful rooms and spotlessly clean. Nice staff - very friendly. No bar or restaurant but not needed as the little cafe on the ground floor was lovely and there are plenty of bars and restaurants nearby. Totally recommend staying here.
