Lovely comfortable  & friendly staff. Not at all suitable to the physically challenged unless you specifically advise them in advance. Bedroom appeared to have been fecently refurbishmed & was very nice.
However the shower was a problem - either hot or roasting hot. No guide on how to switch from one shower head to the 2nd one. Also nó trace for soaps etc in shower cubicle. I notified reception of these shortcomings. Room 323 Sept 11/12th 2024.

Very good but a few problems on shower

Was taken there by a friend to visit west Cork for two nights .First night for dinner we were seated between bar and dining room had to cause a fuss to be moved to dining room.Ordered Macon Cheese with lobster for a starter what arrived was a dish with water 6 pieces of pasta a blob of melted cheese and some pieces of lobster really very poor ,Main course was a nice piece of hake but hidden under a lot of bits and pieces of veg other three guests not much different. I said nothing as myself and my wife were were invited guests there .West Cork noted for nice restaurants but this restaurant  is awful .Was looking forward to hotel after reading great reviews,can only say Chef must have been off on the two nights we stayed.Breakfast ok and very nice lady at breakfast desk and very nice Barman. PS my friend who had invited us remarked on way home not a great place and sadly I had to agree with him   Regards Thomas

A poor experience

You can easily walk into town or over to the ferry for Garnish Island. Be forewarned, if you have a loud neighbor that is all you will hear. The walls are paper thin. The hotel is a bit pricey for what is offered. It felt like the remains of a grand old hotel that is now a bit dated.

Good location to get to Garinish Island

The Eccles hotel ticks all the boxes!! My husband and I had a one night stay  to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We arrived to a friendly welcome from Sinead. Nice and easy checkin. Our room was fresh and clean over looking the sea. The bathroom was   Immaculate!! We went on to use the hot top, sauna and cold plunge bath. It was set out side surrounded by mature trees overlooking the sea. We then had an amazing treatment by Aoife. She was incredibly attentive and catered my massage around my needs. We chilled in the relaxation room with some tea. 
Later we headed for the restaurant. There we were greeted by Ed, the restaurant manager. He wished us a happy anniversary and presented us with 2 glasses of champagne. His team are a credit to him. We enjoyed delicious cuisine! Mouth watering steaks!! Perfect !!- staff were so attentive - they got it right every time. 
We went to the bar for a couple of cocktails made by Adrian. They were so refreshing! He’s a real asset to the hotel. We had a great night sleep in super comfy mattress. We were up early for a walk. Which was just as well because breakfast was something else!!! Gráinne took care of our table. Mags, duty manager, was on hand to ensure the smooth running of breakfasts. She delighted us with a delicious refreshing glass of mimosa to acknowledge our 25th anniversary. So thoughtful!   Give yourself a pat in the back!! The love and warmth is evident among the staff. Rare in this day and age in hospitality!! Thank you to all of you for making our celebration more than we had hoped!! 🙏🏼

Come as strangers / leave as friends at the Eccles

We booked a room that was clearly indicated with forest view and were given a room with NO VIEW at all. The very small window in the corner of the room looked out on a narrow inner court and was covered with a white, non transparent plastique foil. You had the impression sleeping in a box. When claiming at the reception that the description did not fit with the room, I was told that no other room was available. I was not offered any reduction on the rate. I find it inacceptable to sell a room with an incorrect description. The dinner in the restaurant however was nice.

Incorrect room description - be aware of the rooms with forest view!

We stayed 3 nights with a group of friends, the Kilkenny parkrun group, 24 of us. Beautiful location overlooking the Harbour on the edge of Glengarriff. Our room (336) was modern and spotlessly clean with a very comfortable bed and exceptional shower, the house keeping staff were excellent. Loads of parking in front of the hotel, a relaxing lobby and front terrace and a very chilled residents bar. The restaurant and breakfast area was a large and spacious area with some seating inside a closed sun terrace. Food and food server was excellent. The hotel arranged a takeaway breakfast on our first morning - so we were able to breakfast as lovely picnic in the local nature reserve after our parkrun.

A overall great experience - very professionally run Hotel with great service.

As part of a group (24) staying 3 nights we  had a positive experience. Food was great. Spa experience with outdoor steam sauna and cold barrel lovely. We will definitely go back. Glengarrif is a lovely place to visit and this is a very central base with beautiful views.

Great weekend stay

Just back from another 3-night break at my favourite hotel on the West Coast. 
Was so hard to leave!
Our room had a fabulous view overlooking the bay. The bed was comfy and the decor was lovely. 
We ate breakfast and dinner each night at the hotel.  The food was absolutely delicious, especially the evening dinner menu. I’d highly recommend the scallops. My husband was impressed with the steak options. 
The hotel has a lively bar. Adrian, the bar manager was delightful and very good and making cocktails 🍹!!
We couldn’t resist the spa and returned to the hot tubs to enjoy a glass of Prosecco overlooking the sea. Our therapists Alice and Aoife were very good and so professional. 
Such a great location for exploring West Cork. Can’t wait to go back to the Eccles again!

Superb hotel spa break!

I don’t write 5 star reviews very often but I’m genuinely struggling for words to describe the amazing meal I just had in their Garmish Restaurant. I happened to find myself in Glengarriff at short notice and was lucky to get a room so had no expectations and booked in for dinner somewhat blind. From starter (Vegtables soup) to main ( monkfish) I was treated to some of the best restaurant  food I have had in Ireland. Where to start? Perhaps the bacon butter and pesto on freshly baked bread which was complimentary. The soup was stunning with freshly baked brown bread which was as good as anything my wife regularly bakes. The monkfish main was outstanding (even though I am not a big monkfish fan - the hake was sold out). The vegtables were worthy of a starter in their own right with purple sprouting broccoli which tasted as good as anything I have eaten from my own garden. The mussels to accompany same were worthy of a starter. If you are hungry and enjoy fabulous food, generously offered, at reasonable prices, check out this little gem of a restaurant. Oh and I forgot to say the views over Bantry bay towards Garnish Island provides a stunning backdrop with delightful staff to keep you company.So happy I stumbled upon this gem of a hotel which is going places.

This place is a gem. Outstanding restaurant.

My husband and I stayed at the Eccles Hotel recently 
It was lovely . The reception staff were fantastic. They accommodated us in changing our dates at short notice due to illness which we really appreciated. When we arrived we were upgraded to a suite which was fabulous and greatly appreciated. Dinner , and Breakfast the following morning  were really lovely. Would highly recommend this hotel to anyone  who wants the best of Irish hospitality.
