The experience was amazing. The management gave us an ungraded room as it was a special occasion. This was a wonderful surprise for us.
The staff were very friendly and took interest in the people staying. They were also very helpful. I even got a lesson on how to use the nespresso machine.
I would definitely go back to the Old Bank. The location was excellent for all amenities in the town of Kinsale.

A nice enough little place but exceptionally busy with Tourists, often from Cruise Ships. Parking was a nightmare and Toilets are like Hens Teeth. One hour here is more than enough. I can't really recommend it for anything except wasting a bit of time.

Kinsale is a very picturesque town with lots of lovely restaurants pubs craft shops and cafes. It is very busy around the streets in the centre of town with lots of tourists visiting. We enjoyed some great walks around the bay and on Kinsale Head.

Kinsale is a cute little town. Beware. Not easy to drive in.
Kinsale is a cute little town. Beware. Not easy to drive in. Good place to spend a few days.We used it as a base for going to Mizen head, Baltimore and other places south of Cork.
Also note, and this is very common in Ireland, don't get up a the crack of dawn and expect to find a place open for breakfast. A few opened at 8 but more often opened at 9 and even 10. Earlier than 9 were few and far between. Those that are tend to be crowded for obvious reasons.

It was disastrous, my wife decided to go down the town for a walk around as she was walking she noticed foreigners watching her every move and they then started to pair up and follow her, she felt so threatened that she had to go into spar shop and wait for me to collect her. Would never visit there again.

Kinsale is a fantastic town for a weekend away.
Kinsale is a fantastic town for a weekend away. There are several excellent restaurants where you will have unforgettable experiences. The Black Pig and Finns Farmcut are amazing. Breakfast can be hit or miss, The Lemon Leaf and OHK were excellent. If the weather allows the walk out to Charles Fort is lovely, with a pint of Murphy’s at the Bulmans. The views at the Old Head of Kinsale are breathtaking, and Garretstown Beach is stunning. The tour and tasting at Kinsale Mead is fascinating and a unique highlight. Be careful choosing where to stay, as standards are not reflected by star ratings, and the centre can be noisy. Parking is challenging with two hour max at the central car park, better at SuperValu but you’ll need to move your car overnight.
After staying in a tiny hotel in Dublin, this room was a welcome treat - large and bright! We had a lovely view of the water (granted we also had to look over the parking lot, but it was fine). We were close to town and could walk everywhere very easily. Staff was friendly and helpful. We had a snack at the restaurant downstairs one afternoon and food and service were good. The included breakfast was very good - a buffet as well as items you could order. This was one of our favorite hotels on this trip.

Enjoyed another visit to the Trident Hotel after our first stay over 30 years ago. Of course the hotel has been updated but the essential character remains. Lovely staff, very welcoming and helpful.
Accommodation. Good sized, quiet and well appointed room. Air conditioning. Large bathroom with separate bath and shower. Comfortable bed.
Great view over Kinsale Bay from the third floor room. Well worth the additional cost.
This is a great spot in Kinsale. More of a small boutique hotel than a B&B but that said the breakfast had more variety than most places and was high quality. We loved the location. It's up the hillside above the town but an easy and very pleasant 10 minute walk. Lots of parking which is a bit unusual. Appropriately priced. Not inexpensive but very good value. Glad we stayed two nights.
We had an excellent stay at Blind Gate House! Lily and the rest of the staff are very friendly and accommodating for their guests. Our room was quite comfortable with plenty of space. Breakfast was delicious, especially the smoked salmon.
We were only able to spend one night in Kinsale during our trip, but we’d stay at Blind Gate House again in a heartbeat!
Spacious bedroom with super king bed and plenty of comfy pillows! Breakfast was grand- excellent kippers! Staff were super friendly and helped us immensely, when we had a minor accident with a wheel. They were great with our small dog, and offered advice about walks etc Hotel has easy parking and is a short distance to the town.
This was a perfect Irish accommodation for our family. The location is fantastic - right next to a park for the kids and walking distance to explore the town. The accommodations is super cute, clean and spacious. By far one of the best accommodations we’ve stayed in as a family. Host is helpful and responsive. We will be back!!
The breakfast was top class and served. Our room was v spacious and spotlessly clean. Everything was explained covid wise when we checked in and we felt v safe there. It was v well done. If we needed anything extra, which we didn't, we were told not to hesitate to ask. As its a small hotel it was v personable which was lovely.
Our hosts were amazing. My daughter broke her foot two days before our flight to Ireland. They helped us source a wheel chair which made Blarney Castle and dinner in Kinsale enjoyable. We are soooo grateful for their kindness, help, and hospitality. It is a clean, new townhome with very comfortable bedrooms and a kitchen.
All the staff at this hotel are very professional and go out of their way to help were possible.
Rooms have everything you need from tea, coffee, water and toiletries,( soap, shampoo, conditioner,body wash and lotion).
view is excellent.
spa good, jacuzzi, steam room, pool.
Can’t comment on treatments as I never had any.
Really lovely boutique hotel with a great location in the heart of Kinsale. Lovely room, very clean and a good size. The shower was wonderful, great water pressure,, water always hot. Very good breakfast, anything we wanted was provided with a smile and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended by me
Beautiful hotel in a great location. Our room was big and comfortable and beautifully decorated. We appreciated the separate bathroom and dressing room area.
The view of the harbor was gorgeous.
The breakfast was great, lots of cold and hot options. Would highly recommend.
We had a wonderful stay at the K Kinsale. It's a lovely small boutique hotel 5 mins walk from the centre of Kinsale. Melissa was a brilliant host who was on hand should we need anything and also gave us some great recommendations of things to do.
Extremely clean rooms (normally carpet on the floor leads to my allergies acting up, but this was not the case here) and friendly staff. The breakfast was about the best we had in Ireland as well. The house was nice with cosy sitting areas.
The owner and staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and bright. I liked the character of this older hotel, and the fact that it still had all the modern amenities.
We loved our time in Kinsale and the owner/host was exceptionally helpful, kind, and friendly! Kinsale was our first full day in Ireland and we could not have asked for a better welcome.
