Blarney Woollen Mills Hotel - BW Signature Collection

Lots to like. The decor everywhere was just really lovely. I understand they just remodelled it. Well done. And the meals were gorgeous. When we went to Christies pub & restaurant, I thought it might be just pub grub but I was pleasantly surprised. We got the lamb shanks and it was amazing. The breakfast too. All high quality food, beautiful taste and really lovely presentation.

Comfortable room beautiful building and great history but high price for a Best Western. We had some issues with our room but would like to commend Noreen in reception who went above and beyond to help us sort them out. She was brilliant. A great asset. The separate restaurant/pub for evening meal was very good. The huge adjoining shop was an enjoyable distraction with some nice stock. Perfect location for Blarney Castle although it's just a ruin with a pretty garden and as such quite underwhelming and expensive.

Giant tub! Very welcome after all the hiking we did in the prior days. It was easily 5 feet in length! Extremely close to Blarney castle walking path right by hotel. Large parking lot so you can leave your car and take bus into cork which we recommend! If you go to post office which is not far from hotel you can get their green leap card and take the bus into the city and back out. Or cab into the city and back. Too hard to find parking in cork. English market was fun and the city is hopping! Hit Blarney castle first before the crowds. The steps up are small and steep it was nice not to be crowded!

Everything. It’s a mere ten minute drive from the city. But where it is , is like a break from the city too. Brilliant vibrant atmosphere in the town. The hotel is well maintained by excellent polite staff who treat you like you’re the number one priority. (Trust me I’ve stayed in places where that doesn’t happen). The breakfast staff in the Loom were all fantastic polite and most helpful. On my second day there Roy Keane was having a coffee just feet away from me. 10/10 I recommend the Omelette 🍳 for brekkie. The one with the bacon in it.

A quick check-in upon arrival. They have a wonderful parking lot near the front door so it was easy to get our luggage in and out of hotel. This is a nice hotel and very clean. Smells wonderful everywhere you go in the hotel! :) Our room was beautiful and comfortable. They had a large and spacious dining room for the free breakfast. Their breakfast presentation of fruits, pastries, cereals, etc, was very nice. You order from their menu and the foods were wonderful. They also have an elevator! Next door is their Blarney Woollen Mills shop and they close around 6:00. So plan your arrival and shopping accordingly. We would definitely stay here again.
