Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The Skellig is a bit dated, but the hotel is clean and comfortable. The bed slept well.
The pool and hot tub were so refreshing. It is in a great location.
Great location and beautiful setting. The food in the bar was very good and traveling with kids the kids menu had a great variety. Would highly recommend for families traveling to Dingle!
The hotel is just an easy few blocks walk from town. The real attraction here, that I missed until breakfast, is the incredible view from the dining room. The room had a coffee pod machine and there were water refill stations at the end of the hall. Staff was great and attentive. The bad: There is no air conditioning in the guest rooms (not needed while we were there), but especially with allergies, I’d prefer not to rely on open windows to keep things comfortable. They do have radiant heat that cycles on at night and we had some difficulty not getting too hot at night. It’s been a while since the hotel’s last remodel and while the property is clean. The rust in the tub was unattractive. I was disappointing that there were no USB chargers in the room. While most outlets were the standard 3 flat prongs, the bedside outlets had the older round prongs, so my adapters were of use. Another nit, I’m an early riser and the bathroom light switch isn’t the one closest to the bathroom door (it was the middle switch between two other switches) Fumbling around the dark, it was difficult to turn on the bathroom light without hitting the wrong switch and waking my wife. All-in-all a nice hotel and I would stay here again.
Excellent! Everything was Excellent! Staff was excellent !!
Outstanding property! Wonderful location and all the amenities you could ask for. Walking distance to town and the views of the countryside was nothing short of amazing!
The facility is very tired, especially the fitness center. Some of the staff are absolutely spectacular while others seem not to know the basics of hospitality. As an example of the latter, when it was time for us to check out, we were given a bill for a spa treatment that we have been told would cost €55. When the hotel charged us €65, I asked for an explanation. We even called the spa to get clarification on the person who answered the phone said that the cost was €55, but she said she would check to make sure and came back and said it was €65. The fact that she originally told us it was 55 was consistent with what we had been told when we booked the treatment. The person at the front desk should’ve said, “of course we will honor the price that you were given,” but instead she said, “ I’ll make a note of it.” She even repeated herself, as if somehow that was good for me. Ridiculous.
The hotel is really a full services resort with an indoor heated pool, excellent exercise facilities, very good food, within walking distance of everything to do in Dingle and accessible to the loop around the Dingle peninsula. The views of the Dingle Harbor are lovely. Breakfast was great with a very attentive staff. Getting there from Kinsale was harrowing- the roads are very narrow, multiple large buses were coming from the opposite direction and it was raining hard.
The property is very nice with beautiful views and our room was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the dining room for breakfast and dinner and the areas on the main floor were great for relaxing. And we were able to walk into town easily.
Great location. Friendly staff
Great place to stay. Walkable to all the local bars and restaurants. You’ll be happy you paid for this stay in Dingle.
Friendly staff
Beautiful vistas including wildlife, appreciated laundry service at this point in our journey, lovely breakfast each morning and dinner on the terrace with beautiful views. Would highly recommend this hotel
Beautiful hotel by the sea within walking distance of dingle
First time to Ireland, so we were not aware there was no air conditioning, no usable outlets in the bathroom or on the headboard wall, and no ice machines for drinks consumed in the room.
Amazing trip to Dingle. It was the highlight of our trip. Skellig Hotel and staff were incredible.
Wonderful property but be sure to book spa services in advance. They're very popular!
We had a wonderful stay. This hotel is in a beautiful location. Breakfast was fantastic.
A property in this price range should have AC. The little ‘beach’ near the property was dirty/a lot of trash.
Lack of air con in rooms, the hotel and rooms felt a bit dated for the price.
It’s so beautiful all around and quiet. The hotel is walking distance to the supermarket and downtown area. Great breakfast!
Beautiful location; easy walk to town. Excellent kids club. Hotel layout isn’t the best. They really should make more of its position and connect the hotel with the fabulous landscape.
The location of the property was great, and it appeared to be very family-friendly. However, the staff was not as friendly and seemed bothered at check-in and checkout.
Friendly & respectful staff. Very helpful when questions were posed.
Check in was clunky….. I think the staff were either new or poorly trained…. Considering the price I paid (double the normal average ) I would have expected a more professional check in.
We stayed here during our hike of the Dingle Way. It was fantastic to have a spacious room, bathtub, comfortable bed, and laundry facilities during our stay. Beautiful resort off the Dingle Peninsula!
.
Beautiful spot, the spa & hot tub were a highlight of our trip - especially after the rains & some long travel days!
Great location overlooking the water yet convenient to town (about a 5 minute walk). Friendly, helpful staff. Great breakfast. Free parking. Clean, comfortable room, comfortable bed
Nice location. Breakfast was lovely. Hotel could use an update. Adding modern conveniences such as phone cords/ports.
Fabulous location. Hotel & housekeeping staff were great. Several of the restaurant staff made us feel unwelcome.
Beautiful on the water
Gorgeous views, lovely staff. Hotel needs updating.
We loved our stay at the Dingle Skellig - easy walk to Dingle town, our room was wonderful with an incredible view of the harbour and water! Staff was excellent, providing advise for excursions and restaurants. Great live music in the bar was a plus!
Very comfortable stay with very good service at the front desk and at the restaurants
Gorgeous hotel and rooms
You spend too dollar for mediocre service here. This hotel chain is worried about getting you checked in. Room was decent (had a business room). Coffee maker wouldn’t work correctly. The shampoo and wash in the shower was broken. And the hair of probably the last five travelers was present on our pillows. Save your money and go a few miles down the road to Ceann. Proper service, friendly, accommodating, and very welcoming to tourist!
A little outside the downtown but still walkable, this hotel provides a stunning view of Dingle Bay. Breakfast which is included is delicious and varied. My only challenge to the hotel would be to update the electrical as there are few options for charging all of our various digital options these days. Having to charge your phone/alarm in another room is not great. But overall a very charming place adjacent to a sweet and special town.
All around wonderful experience!
The staff was very friendly and we had a nice spacious room. We did not like the room temperature is controlled centrally and not in the individual rooms. Thankfully, we were able to open the windows to cool the room down.
Overall a nice property in a nice location, walkable to Dingle town. Good breakfast. The pool and spa area is a bit dated and rundown and there was construction right outside our window which made the experience less than ideal.
The view from the hotel is awesome. A long wa
Probably the friendliest hotel in Europe. Location is second to none with spectacular views over Dingle Bay. The rooms are very spacious with all the amenities you'd need. The beds are very comfortable and house keeping is excellent The breakfast is delicious with friendly and efficient waiting staff. Fabulous hotel!
The property is set in a stunning coastal location with views across a bay. The hotel is well placed for exploring the local area and the centre of Dingle can be reached easily by foot.. Our room was comfortable and clean. All the staff we meet were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good.
Great location and view. We were in the newer part of the hotel. We did have air conditioning, no wash cloths. Bed was 7.5/10 a little harder than I prefer. Easy walk to the shops. I would recommend.
Stunning location, with fun and friendly staff.
A very lovely stay.
Beautiful hotel walking distance to town. Spectacular view. A lovely spa.
Location wise the Skellig Hotel is a short walk to the town of Dingle whilst it has fantastic sea views especially from the dining / breakfast room. We booked a Junior Suite, however once checked in we were surprised at the size of the room and had to double check our booking. Room was fine, clean, bathroom spacious. However it was a king size bed yes, but not a suite. A “double room” size with a kind bed would be an accurate description. For the price point of the room we felt it was poor value. No water in the room and no biscuits to have with the coffee / tea that was provided. The tv was quite small and only had the free to air channels. Lastly the temperature of the room was incredibly warm, we left our windows open all day and all night and that helped however for a stay over in December with the wild weather it wasn’t an ideal resolution. Whilst this review may seem like it’s picking on small things, when you pay €420 for a junior suite you do have a certain expectation of the accommodation and comfort level you have paid to receive.
The staff was incredible!!! Everyone was super helpful, very kind, just alwahs felt like they went the extra mile to maks our stay even better!
We had a very comfortable stay during our three days in Dingle. The staff was all very nice especially all the ladies working the front desk! Our room was very spacious and the bathroom was also very large. The location is a quick walk into the main pub/eating/shopping area of Dingle. There is even an incredible cliff walk right from the property if you are into hiking. Highly recommend!
Beautiful hotel, large room with big bathroom. Seating area by a bay window in the room with a view of the grounds and water. Breakfast options were plentiful. Gym was well equipped and all staff were friendly and professional.
Loved it!
Gorgeous view
Nice hotel
All was excellent! Just be careful, buy the breakfast package only if you will definitely be there & have breakfast every morning. Refund was refused for mornings we did not have breakfast! We did not understand that when purchased, it was explained & confirmed that was a retainer and would be refunded for what we did not use. However, when we checked out, no refund for the mornings we slept in Adamantly the Morgan refused to refund or credit our account, so sad…
There are five star reviews, and two star…and I get both after staying here. The property is kind of creepy, honestly…we stayed in the “newer /renovated” rooms…but getting there meant going down corridors that seemed to go on forever. The “superior / king bed” room was small and each of us got lost Multiple Times going to or from the car to retrieve thing(s). Had spa services which were fine, not exceptional, the “relaxation room” was loungers in a sun room looking at the ocean. Overall, I wish the property would be updated. You can walk to town and enjoy Dingle, about 10 minutes away.
This is an absolutely stunning hotel. I recommend it very highly. You will not be disappointed.
Need up dates! Pillows & bed so uncomfortable! Hotel needs upgrade ! Very 80s very old fashioned!!
Wonderful place! Walkable distance to the city and to the water
The property and all on property purchases were grossly overpriced for the value received.
Excellent
Thx
The grounds were incredible on a location second to none!
We stayed for two nights and had an outstanding stay. The location of the hotel is breathtaking. You are a short walk from downtown Dingle where you will find shops, restaurants and pubs. The hotel has a wonderful spa where we enjoyed full body massages. The served hot breakfast was fantastic. I will look forward to returning!
Overall great hotel
We had a horrible check in. The staff member was so rude that we needed assistance from management. The issue was never resolved.
Dryer didn’t work Thin walls, noisy late
I think it was over priced. My shower didn’t drain so I had to stand in water the whole time and it wasn’t very clean. Room was very warm but there was a fan. When I ordered some room service the receptionist tried to challenge me to come down for my order instead of bringing it to me. I expected more for the price.
Fantastic hotel! Room had an amazing view from the room in the 3rd floor. The room was a bit hot. Used the fan and left the windows open.
Gorgeous setting and walkable to Dingle Lovely dining area! Love music in the evening we so enjoyed too…we will be back!
15 minute walk to town, grounds were beautiful. Nice breakfast buffet.
This hotel was a lovely find. It had everything we needed for our night in Dingle. We were in the newer area of the hotel. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and more than helpful when I forgot something in the room. They made sure to keep it safely aside for me. Very appreciated.
The location in Dingle was fabulous. It seemed a little dated.
The restaurant
Fantastic
Beautiful clean hotel. Amazing location and convenient and close to town. Will definitely stay there again.
The Hotel was beautiful ! Staff great clean and the property itself is on perfect location
Rooms were lovely. Staff very friendly and helpful
We had a fabulous stay. Room was beautiful, clean and lots of space.
We had a fantastic stay, with amazing views from our room. The experience was made even better by Caren at reception who was very helpful and friendly and made celebrating a special birthday very memorable.
A well-run resort hotel within walking distance of downtown Dingle.
Beautifully situated. Perfect for a quick walk into town. Wonderful breakfast. Comfortable room and beds. Lovely, friendly staff.
Very beautiful, great pool and spa, and delicious breakfast!
It was a great location and a magnificent room. The staff was incredibly kind, diligent, and professional. Last but not least, hot breakfast served on the table, with real coffee (no Nespresso, thank God) was much appreciated.
Great location
Wonderful service, great location, fabulous stay!
Lovely hotel. Swimming pool was large. Bring or buy a swim cap. Restaurant and breakfast was good. Short walk to Dingle.
Great location to visit Dingle and area.
Like the view from the dining room!!!
We stayed for one night on the 6th May 2024. We had a fantastic stay! The hotel was in walking distance to the town. A 2 minute walk to the water and breath taking views. We are in the bar and the food was great! The Team and the service was spot on. Highly recommend!
Clean, great spa and hot tub with stunning views. Service was excellent and food at the onsite bar exceeded expectations. I wish we stayed here longer!
The property was very nice and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay here.
Old and rundown. Don’t know how this place has 4 stars quite frankly. Rooms very outdated and very randomly organized in a way that makes no sense. There is zero air circulation even with the fan on high. No air conditioning system in place so at night you have to choose between it being stuffy or opening the window to the cold/rain. Instead of having two separate compartments for trash and recycling like all the other hotels they instead left a note in a room asking its guests to separate their own trash in a second plastic bag (because now I am also doing work for them). The front desk did not ask if I needed help with luggage during check in or check out. Asked to get some premade breakfast items to go because I had to leave before 7am and was told no. Would never stay here again and would only recommend if you enjoy only having 4 walls and a roof and no other services like staying at a hostel.
Ate at the bar restaurant because of the main one hosting an event. The food was good and the wait staff outstanding. The out side hot tub was an added bonus. Very comfortable bed. We drove into town but it looked like a easy walk.
Great location overlooking Dingle bay Upgraded room was nice Walking from hotel to lighthouse and downtown Dingle excellent Food not brilliant
This was an excellent place to stay. Knowledgeable staff, a good breakfast and a great location with easy parking.
Had a pool & Spa
Fabulous place to stay. Would recommend it.
The room and stay were very nice A bit overpriced as lots of things were closed due to a November off season timing Looked forward to a visit to their lounge for drinks and music We were seated and then without being served 4 songs later we left disappointed
