We loved sitting in the lobby waiting to meet up with family. And the food was delicious. But the staff was exceptional. They were very accommodating and made our stay very comfortable (I was traveling with my 91-year old mother). And she cannot wait to go back next year!

For an annual family golf trip to Skibbereen we stay at The West Cork Hotel. It’s clean, staff are friendly and it’s in a good location. It’s also reasonably priced. Breakfast is good too.
