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!

This place is made by the staff who are very friendly and lovely. It is somewhat dated but in the limited options in Skibbereen is clearly the local place to go for big events - on both days we stayed there were big family parties.
